Curious about a Rhine River Cruise? In this episode of Europe Unveiled, Sonia shares insider tips and highlights along the Rhine — including the Rhine Gorge, medieval towns, and vineyard-filled landscapes. If you’re planning a European river cruise, this episode shows you why the Rhine is one of the most magical rivers to sail.

We’ll explore what it’s really like to sail the Rhine — from the bustling canals of Amsterdam to the cultural elegance of Basel. I’ll walk you through the must-see ports, food and wine you’ll want to try, and those pinch-me moments that make this river so special.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:

• Why the Rhine is a perfect fit for both first-time and returning cruisers
• My favorite ports to explore — including Rüdesheim, Strasbourg, Cologne, and Heidelberg (don’t miss the world’s largest wine barrel!)
• What it’s like to sail through the castle-dotted Rhine Gorge — complete with live commentary
• Seasonal tips: when to cruise depending on your vibe
• What to expect onboard, from wine pairings and local cuisine to included excursions and light entertainment
• Why this river cruise is one I return to again and again — and why it absolutely belongs on your bucket list
