The Middle Rhine Valley Castles & Palaces Boat Tour was amazing, a different and more complete way to explore the city. Beautiful landscapes and a great way to learn about the history of the city. Word of advice, take cash as they don't take credit card.

The process of buying the tickets was simple and the boat trip was really interesting to see iconic buildings from the river. The boat was really comfortable and the service was good with a wide range of drinks available.

Relaxed atmosphere on board, also because embarkation was 30 minutes before take-off. Friendly and courteous staff. The ship was very clean in all areas.

Large boat, very friendly service for food and drinks, good quality of catering, louder engine noise to be heard at the back during the trip, explanations during the trip only for the sights - between Oberlahnsein and Braubach correspondingly poor. The good seats are occupied 20 minutes before departure.

Pair two Koblenz's experiences with one combo — a cable car ride above the Rhine and Moselle, plus a 2-hour boat cruise through the UNESCO-listed Middle Rhine Valley.

Ride the Koblenz Cable Car in panoramic cabins across both rivers, with barrier-free access throughout. The round-trip gives you sweeping aerial views of the Rhine, the Moselle, and the rooftops of Koblenz below.

Next, spend 2 hours sailing through the Middle Rhine Valley, one of Germany's most celebrated UNESCO World Heritage stretches.

Pass castles, riverside villages, and centuries-old palaces as the landscape unfolds slowly from the water, then watch the Rhine and Moselle rivers converge at the Deutsches Eck.
