The River Cruise Line has released a new brochure for 2017 which includes two new itineraries on board the mps Lady Anne along the Dutch Waterways and the Rhine and Moselle.
Best of the Rhine & Moselle
mps Lady Anne’s captain has created this itinerary himself. Highlights of the cruise will include a cable-car ride above the vineyards of Rüdesheim; a guided tour of Mainz; and wine tasting in Cochem.
Groups taking this cruise will also get to visit Traben-Trarbach, a quaint town filled with half-timbered buildings; and enjoy further wine tasting in the Ahr Valley.
This nine-day trip departs on a number of dates between May and August 2017. The River Cruise Line is offering free excursions packages to groups of 20 or more on this new cruise; the offer is valid on 21st May departures.
GTOs should contact a member of the dedicated groups’ team by calling 0844-544 6587 for more information.
Amsterdam, Bulbfields & Waterways of Holland
This itinerary sails along the waterways of Holland and provides views of the spring gardens at Keukenhof, where more than seven million flowers bloom each year.
This five day journey from Nijmegen visits some of the country’s prettiest towns and cities including Dordrecht, whose preserved centre is filled with ancient buildings that line the canals and harbours.
The cruise also visits Rotterdam and Amsterdam, to visit one of the famous diamond factories and to take a candlelit canal cruise with wine and cheese tasting.
Departures are available on 14th and 21st April 2017.
New excursions
The River Cruise Line has also added new highlights to existing cruises. For example, the Amsterdam & Bulbfields Spectacular itinerary will now include a visit to Aalsmeer Flower Auction, while wine tasting in Mainz is new on the agenda on a Cruise the Rhine to Switzerland holiday.
Group travel
The River Cruise Line offers a number of incentives for groups, such as free local pickups, free places for group leaders and 2017 cruises at 2016 prices.
