Let the Rhine carry you through Europe’s most romantic landscapes on this immersive Trafalgar journey. Over nine unforgettable days, wander canal-lined Amsterdam, stand beneath storybook castles, and trace your way south along vineyards, hill towns, and riverside villages that feel untouched by time. This itinerary is slow, elegant, and rich with beauty — the perfect blend of history, culture, and scenic relaxation.

Your adventure begins in Amsterdam, where flower-draped bridges and shimmering canals guide you through the city’s bohemian charm. Explore lively neighbourhoods, world-class museums, and cafés tucked into narrow streets. There’s something magical about Amsterdam in summer — long daylight hours, golden evenings, and a creative spirit that lingers everywhere.

From there, travel into the heart of Rhine Valley Germany, one of the most iconic stretches of river in the world. Castles sit like watchtowers above the water, villages of half-timbered homes dot the shoreline, and terraced vineyards wind across the hillsides. Enjoy curated stops in towns such as Rüdesheim, known for music, winemaking, and warm hospitality, accompanied by your expert Trafalgar Travel Director who brings local culture to life through stories, tastings, and meaningful encounters.

Continue toward Switzerland as the Rhine widens and mountains rise in the distance, ending in Basel — a charming and artistic city where French, German, and Swiss influences meet. Wander Old Town squares, sample local Swiss chocolate, or breathe in the calm of the riverfront before journey’s end.

With Trafalgar, travel feels effortless: quality accommodations, insider experiences, and a rhythm that lets you savour each destination without rushing. This is Europe at its most cinematic — elegant, historic, and full of summer light.

What Our Clients Say About Us

"I am a member of the RCMP and was posted to Sudan in 2009. As all of our contingent soon found out, conducting financial transactions in this part of the world proved very difficult. Credit and bank cards are not excepted and Internet connections are difficult at the best of times. Even more difficult is making travel arrangements. Most reservations had to be made in person and with cash. Luckily for me another member, posted with me, suggested “Vacations for Hero’s” out of British Columbia. From my UN compound, in a remote corner of South Sudan, I was able contact Linda Hayes at Vacations for Hero’s. With Linda I was able to obtain the most advantageous travel arrangements. I found their travel knowledge broad and their access extensive. I was able to plan, book and pay for my trips out of Sudan with security and confidence. Because of this experience I will use Vacations for Heroes exclusively for all my travel needs."
