Germany – Boppard & Rhine Ablaze

6 DAYS • THURSDAY OCTOBER 12TH – 17TH

Staying at the 4* Belle Vue hotel
A holiday to Boppard situated at the most beautiful point on the river Rhine. Castles, Cathedrals, woods & vineyards and a romantic river all contribute to the scenery.

Our visit coincides with the grape harvest celebrations and includes an evening cruising the Rhine with dinner and entertainment onboard. Our hotel is the 4 star Belle Vue situated on the Rhinestrasse overlooking the Rhine, in our opinion the best in Boppard.
