Find Your Next Vacation

Main River

Germany's Main River winds through the heart of the country, passing forests and vineyards as well as cosmopolitan cities and medieval towns. It is a tributary of the Rhine and connects with the Danube via the Main-Danube Canal. Many Main sailings also spend time on the Rhine and Danube, some traveling from the North Sea all the way to the Black Sea.

The price of your vacation includes accommodations, many meals and beverages and sightseeing excursions. Cruise directors handle the details on board, while expert guides show you the top attractions in each port.
