  • Favorite Thing: Koblenz is located in one of Germany's most popular vine growing regions and it is a must to drink a local wine here. I enjoyed one glass of red wine while cruising the Rhine river!

    Rhine Cruise: Rhine Cruise

  • Favorite Thing: In Koblenz you can enter one of the cruise ships to go down the Rhine. Halfway between Koblenz and Mainz you come accross the most famous rock at the Rhine River, the Loreley. A lot of songs have been composed about this rock. It is said that at night, when the full moon shines, eleves dance on top of this 120 meters (400 feet) high rock. the word "Lore" comes from the old German word for dancing, and "Lei" from "rock". This might be the real origin of the name "Loreley".

  • Fondest Memory: Koblenz is located in Germany's winegrowing region. South of Koblenz is the so-called Rheingau region. The drive thorugh the vineyard is a great experience. In this hilly region almost all hills is covered with vines. Every now and then you can stop in a village and have a glass of local wine in a tavern. Better to travel by bike because you shouldn't drink and drive a car.
