Grand European Explorer
Day 1 - A grand river voyage of over 2,000 miles of history, culture, art, music, nature and more Combine our Grand European Discovery and Eastern Europe Explorer cruises into one magnificent voyage. Sail the Rhine, Main and Danube rivers all the way from Switzerland to Romania.
Crisscross the legendary Rhine, meandering Main and romantic Danube en route towards the Black Sea and Bucharest
Your journey takes you along the legendary Rhine and back in time as you visit towns that seem to have been lifted out of the pages of fairy tales. Follow pastoral scenes along the Main River, and through the engineering marvel of the Main-Danube Canal as it gives way to the romantic Danube through the dramatic Iron Gates and heads towards the Black Sea.
