Hamburg, Germany

Hamburg is connected by the Elbe River to the North Sea. If you are looking to explore a walkable (or bike-friendly) city by the water, then Hamburg, Germany is just the ticket. Though the city was bombed and destroyed during World War II, it was quickly rebuilt while maintaining its old-world charm. In lieu of skyscrapers, you can expect a less dramatic skyline of churches, government offices, and other historic structures. The waterfront promenades are also popular points for walking, jogging, biking, and just enjoying the city.

While Hamburg, Germany is usually included on Europe cruises, it is also the departure port for a few transatlantic cruises each year, which is a great way for you to transit the Atlantic Ocean and reach the United States (usually New York).

River Cruise Lines

Becoming more and more popular, a river cruise is an immerse and destination-focused vacation experience, on a small and luxurious vessel.

River cruises sail through the inland waterways of some of the world's most interesting vacation destinations (i.e. Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and North America), and provide their guests with a greater opportunity to spend time visiting more unique ports of call than a traditional cruise typically would.

Because the destination is the star of a river cruise, (typically guided) shore excursions are included at no additional charge by many River cruise lines. There are usually many interesting lectures given during the cruise, by experts on the history and culture of the region being visited.

Among the famous rivers that one may take a river cruise on are the Rhine, Mississippi, Seine, Danube, Mekong, Nile, Yangtze, Amazon and Douro.
