My wife and I have been on three A-Rosa cruises and are looking forward to planning our next trip. This tour of the Moselle and Rhine was spectacular. We enjoyed the small towns, the food on-board and the always attentive staff. The ships are always comfortable. This time we brought our son’s family and we especially appreciated the attention given to our 7-year old grandson by the captain and hotel manager. Others have commented on being on a German cruise line with mostly German speakers. While we were the only Americans, there were dozens of passengers from Wales and England. Frankly, we prefer being with Germans when we are in Germany. If we wanted to hang out with Americans, we’d vacation in Dallas. We were sad to miss being able to visit Trier due to low water level, but have deep respect for how well A-Rosa dealt with the challenge.
Moselle Romance 2027Go for it! Worth the money.
Romantic Moselle, MS CruceRioGenerally very good. Food was excellent. Staff were all excellent. Airconditioning in bedroom could have been better. Wifi signal was not great. The most dissapointing thing was that despite the fact that the informaion we were provided with (before the start of cruise) stated that the trips were all included in our package, we were advised after the first day on board that this was not correct and that further trips would have to be paid for in addition.
5 Different Rivers: The Rhine, Neckar, Main, Moselle, and Saar (port-to-port cruise)

- Spring 2027
The Moselle really comes alive in spring, especially for river cruises and cycling trips. Setting off from Luxembourg, you can join guided vineyard walks before the summer crowds arrive, plus hop on a bike between villages whenever you feel like stretching your legs. Our travelers often tell us how magical it is watching the morning mist lift off the river, slowly revealing those medieval castles and terraced vineyards. Some clever routes mix Amsterdam's tulip season with Moselle wine country, giving you both Dutch gardens and German wines in one go. We've found the smaller ships work perfectly this time of year - they can pull right into the heart of towns like Cochem and Bernkastel-Kues, where you'll meet fewer tourists than in peak months.

- Summer 2027
Summer opens every possible way to explore the Moselle. The river cruises hit that sweet spot between comfort and cultural immersion - you can relax on deck as castles drift past, then step ashore to wander through Trier's Roman ruins or join a local mustard-making workshop in one of the valley's historic mills. Our bike-and-barge tours are particularly popular; customers love cycling through vineyards and medieval villages by day, then returning to a comfortable boat each evening. Many trips include nice touches like castle concerts and private tastings at family wineries. The guides get loads of praise for pointing out those local details you'd probably miss on your own.
