Scenic Rhine & Paris (2027) 2027 (Basel to Paris)

Arrive at EuroAirport Basel Mulhouse Freiburg. If you have arranged a Uniworld arrival transfer, you will be greeted by a Uniworld representative and transferred to the ship.

Sandwiched between the Black Forest on one side and French Alsace on the other, Breisach is a picturesque city where the locals will take any opportunity to enjoy a good glass of wine or take advantage of the area’s plentiful hiking and biking paths.

The Rhineland-Palatinate region of Germany is known for its idyllic natural environment, rural charm, and expansive vineyards. Forge an authentic connection to this beloved area on one of two unique experiences, led by locals with unique passions. For your first option: meet an estate turning Palatinate winegrowing tradition on its head—where the vineyards don’t produce grapes for wine, but for specialty vinegar aperitifs. On the other, visit a mill-turned-collector's-museum, where you’ll find a fascinating collection of items from around the world and a gorgeous garden.

Rüdesheim, like many cities along the Rhine, dates back to Roman times, when the Rhine was the northern border of the empire. Today, Rüdesheim is famous for its beauty and its entertaining alley of shops and wine bars called the Drosselgasse.

A wine village dating back to the Roman era, Winningen displays its history across charmingly medieval architecture and Romanesque streets. Whether you opt to visit a peaceful, lakeside monastery or hike the forested surrounds of Alken, you’ll appreciate the cheerful serenity of this beloved Moselle town.

Bernkastel sits peacefully in the Moselle Valley and is as picture-perfect as it gets. Explore its scenic streets, taverns, and vineyards on a walking tour complete with a tasting of the region’s exceptional wines.

Trier is no stranger to famous landmarks, stunning cathedrals, natural beauty, UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and architectural treasures. See Trier’s Roman heritage and Gallic charm as you stroll to some of the city’s most notable spots. Marvel at the stone Roman gate, Porta Nigra, the Karl Marx house, Imperial Baths, and more. Alternatively, you can choose to visit the small neighboring country of Luxembourg. Experience a healthy dose of history with a visit to the expansive Luxembourg American War Cemetery and Memorial, where General George S. Patton is buried.

Disembark the ship and transfer to a centrally located, five-star hotel in Paris for the final leg of your journey. Enjoy the rest of the day at your leisure to relax at your hotel or explore the neighborhood.

Paris, often dubbed the “City of Light,” is a mesmerizing blend of historic grandeur and modern elegance. From the cobbled alleys of Montmartre to the grand Champs-Élysées, Paris encapsulates a timeless allure.

Check out of your hotel this morning. If you have arranged a Uniworld departure transfer, you’ll be taken to Charles de Gaulle Airport for your flight home.
