More Fairytales Come to Life Along the Rhine

In addition to exploring the colorful canals and marketplaces of Colmar, guests will now visit Eguisheim, France—a charming village whose storybook streets famously helped inspire Beauty and the Beast. As you wander the cobblestone lanes, it’s nearly impossible not to hear “Bonjour!” playing in your head.

For those drawn to natural beauty and history, guests can choose between a full-day excursion to Lucerne, Switzerland—featuring the city’s historic Old Town and the Glacier Garden—or a scenic bike ride to Neuf-Brisach, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its star-shaped design and triple moat.

Each evening brings a bit of Disney magic back on board, including a Beauty and the Beast-inspired dinner menu. Be our guest, indeed.

More Flexibility in Amsterdam

The Rhine River Cruise now wraps up in Amsterdam with added flexibility, giving guests more freedom to explore the city at their own pace. Travelers can choose between a scenic canal cruise complete with local treats or a visit to Zaanse Schans, a preserved Dutch village where Junior Adventurers can decorate their own traditional wooden clogs.

Both options are offered in the morning or afternoon, making it easier to tailor the final day to your travel style.

Adventures by Disney river cruises are offered in partnership with AmaWaterways, where each ship feels like a floating boutique hotel. Expect family-friendly staterooms, regionally inspired cuisine, onboard activities for all ages, and sweeping views of Europe’s cities and countryside.

Four or more Adventure Guides sail with every cruise, handling logistics, enriching the experience with storytelling, and ensuring the journey is as seamless as it is magical.

New Munich Escape: A Storybook Extension

New for 2027, the three-day, two-night Munich Escape is ideal as a standalone getaway or as an extension to a Danube River Cruise. Guests will stay steps from Munich’s historic city center while exploring the heart of Bavaria through hands-on and immersive experiences.
