Treasures of the Main & Rhine

This itinerary follows both the Rhine and the Main, pairing two rivers whose towns tell different chapters of German history. Nuremberg's Kaiserburg Castle recalls the fortresses that once dotted the medieval landscape, while Würzburg's UNESCO-listed Residenz showcases Baroque architecture built for a life of grand scale. Along the way, the half-timbered streets of Wertheim and Rüdesheim add their own layers of history to this journey.

Why travelers choose AmaWaterways

Captivating Rhine

“I’ve sailed the Rhine River three times now and been to Siegfried’s Mechanical Musical Instrument Cabinet every time. It was a totally different experience the third time when I experienced the museum through my new friends’ eyes.”

Kathy D.

City Escape: The Rhine

“You have more time to spend with family and you don’t have the kids off at a big water park on deck. With ocean cruising, people are prone to be doing separate things versus having more quality time with less distraction. River cruising has my heart now.”

Jennifer S.

City Escape: The Rhine

“Ama goes above and beyond to make the holiday season special aboard, and its wonderful to be able to celebrate, be taken care of, and feel like I’ve done something special for myself all at the same time. I can’t recommend it enough!”
