Perfect 2 hours trip. Easy to book with headout. Spacious decks with plenty of tables. Great service from friendly staff. Fantastic drinks menu including local Mosel wines. Nice food also. The views of Stolzenfels and Marksburg castles were outstanding. Great value for money. Possibly the best thing to do in Koblenz!

A unique way to see the sites surrounding te river. Also the oportunity to leave the boat in a different village and take a later boat back is a plus for me.
