Day 1 - Cologne

Arrive: Mon 28 December 2026 / Depart: Mon 28 December 2026

Cologne, a 2,000-year-old city spanning the Rhine River in western Germany, is the region’s cultural hub. A landmark of High Gothic architecture set amid reconstructed old town, the twin-spired Cologne Cathedral is also known for its gilded medieval reliquary and sweeping river views. The adjacent Museum Ludwig showcases 20th-century art, including many masterpieces by Picasso, and the Romano-Germanic Museum houses Roman antiquities.

Day 2 - Rudesheim

Arrive: Tue 29 December 2026 / Depart: Tue 29 December 2026

Rüdesheim am Rhein is a town in the Rhine Valley, Germany. It’s known for winemaking, especially of Riesling wines. In the center, Drosselgasse is a lane lined with shops, taverns and restaurants.

Frankfurt, a central German city on the river Main, is a major financial hub that's home to the European Central Bank.

The reconstructed Altstadt (Old Town) is the site of Römerberg, a square that hosts an annual Christmas market.

Koblenz, spelled Coblenz before 1926, is a German city on the banks of the Rhine and of the Moselle, a multi-nation tributary. Koblenz was established as a Roman military post by Drusus around 8 B.C. Its name originates from the Latin c?nfluent?s, meaning " confluence"
