Tour details
Individual arrival for embarkation in Düsseldorf. Our on-board tour guide will welcome you with a glass of sparkling wine.
Your ship departs at around 6.00 pm and sets course for the Netherlands.
You reach the cosy Hanseatic city of Nijmegen at night. At more than 2000 years old, Nijmegen is the oldest city in Holland. Around the market square you will find the St Stevens Church, medieval town houses, restaurants and galleries. Discover this diverse city on a guided city walk (optional).
At lunchtime, it's time to cast off again: you leave the Netherlands and return to Germany. Enjoy the passing scenery on board as your ship sets course for Xanten.
In the afternoon, you will reach the historic Roman town on the Lower Rhine. From the pier, the Nibelungen Express will take you comfortably to the town centre. The historic old town awaits you there with the impressive St Viktor's Cathedral and numerous lovingly restored buildings. You can learn more about Xanten's colourful past on a city tour (optional). Another highlight is the Xanten Archaeological Park. The extensive open-air museum on the site of the former Roman city ‘Colonia Ulpia Traiana’ can be explored individually and offers fascinating insights into life in ancient times.
Return on board in the evening and enjoy the festive conclusion to your short trip at the gala dinner.
During the night, your ship will take you back to Düsseldorf.
After breakfast, disembarkation and individual return journey.

Excursion program We would be happy to send you an order form with our offer on excursions prior to departure. The excursions will be held in German language. The excursions can only be booked in English language on request (depending on the excursion agency and the minimum number of participants).
Itinerary or program are subject to change at any time. If due to low or high water levels, or bad weather conditions, a route cannot be sailed, the captain reserves the right to alter the itinerary for your safety. (No legal right shall arise in either situation). The same shall apply for repair or maintenance works on locks and bridges ordered by river and other local authorities with little or no advance.
Important notice Please bear in mind that your ship is not only your “vacation hotel”, but also a piece of equipment that is powered by an engine and has to be operated constantly, even at night (sometimes with lock and bridge passages). We recommend that guests who are particularly sensitive to noise bring earplugs. Disturbances must always be expected when passing through locks. Please note: at low water, the pool may have to be emptied to reduce the draught of the ship and is then not available.
Travel documents EU-citizens (without special situations like dual citizenship, main residence abroad or a limited-validity passport) are required to have a valid passport or ID-card, not expiring within six (6) months of the return of your cruise. We kindly ask non-EU citizens, EU-nationals with multiple citizenship or anybody who has to respect special legal entry requirements for the country to visit, to inform about visa and entry documents at the competent embassy.
This trip is not suitable for guests with reduced mobility.
We recommend that you take out a foreign travel health insurance with repatriation coverage, an accident insurance, a luggage insurance and a travel cancellation insurance.
You can cancel the trip at any time after booking. Cancellation fees can be found in the travel conditions. The travel conditions of the organizer apply: SE-Tours GmbH, Am Grollhamm 12a, 27574 Bremerhaven
