After we depart from Nürnberg, we’ll soon pass the first lock of many on this trip: each lock will take us one step further down the mountain we’re navigating, just like a stairway! While you enjoy the afternoon cruise from our cosy lounge or one of the terraces Merlijn offers, you’ll get a last glimpse of Nürnberg while sailing through the city.

My wife and I looked forward to this adventure for 9 months, and it did not disappoint. It was a good thing we did a lot of riding every day, because Cristina sure spoiled us with fantastic meals. How much fun we had with the crew and other passengers can not be stressed enough. The ship is well appointed, and clean, clean, clean. Highly recommend this to anyone with a sense of adventure who likes to cycle.
