Rhine Valley Bike & Barge

Imagine pedaling through a fairytale landscape, where medieval castles rise above vineyard-clad hills and the gentle current of the Rhine River accompanies your every turn. The Rhine Valley Bike & Barge tour package offers an eight-day, relaxed-paced bicycle tour from Koblenz to Mainz, perfectly suited for seniors and experienced travelers looking for comfort and cultural immersion.

This guided trip weaves through iconic German towns like Boppard and Mainz, unveiling the UNESCO-listed Middle Rhine Valley’s legendary castles, timbered villages, and sweeping river views. Cycling short, easy sections each day, you’ll have plenty of time to stop in charming towns, sample local wines, and explore Roman ruins or bustling markets. The beauty of this journey lies not only in the scenery but in the convenience of your floating hotel—the MS Olympia—meaning you only unpack once and return each evening to your cozy cabin and delicious meals.

A standout feature is the seamless combination of cycling adventure and effortless travel by barge, which lets you experience the region’s highlights without the hassle of daily transfers. Knowledgeable guides ensure you enjoy both the sights and the stories behind them, making this tour ideal for first-time cycle tourists or anyone seeking a gentle introduction to Europe’s riverside treasures.

For travelers eager to explore Germany’s wine country, medieval heritage, and riverine beauty in comfort and style, the Rhine Valley Bike & Barge tour is truly a unique and memorable getaway.
