On our Main river cruises, you'll cut a course through the pastoral landscapes of Bavaria, revealing a region laden with Germanic splendour and fascinating heritage. This 237-mile long river connects the Danube to the Rhine, and its banks reveal an authentic history of the continent.

You’ll see a distinct combination of natural beauty and quaint architecture along the Main river be surrounded in the luxurious, spacious interior of our award-winning Star-Ships.
