Not worth the price but there is not much to choose from for trips to the Rhine from Frankfurt
marina

The drive out to the Rhine was good. However, as mentioned in the other reviews, you are taken to a restaurant that is overpriced. Also the wine tasting is in the back room of the restaurant and not at a winery. The tasting is four thimble glasses and while we did not expect full glasses, we expected it to be a tasting and not a sip. The restaurant is also not what you would expect. It is crowded with memorabilia all over the place. The cruise on the Rhine is like a ferry ride - you pass about three castles and otherwise spend most of your time going in and out of ports on the river. The view is also beautiful. However, for what you get, the trip is overpriced. It is also not a full day - it begins at 11:30am.

Dear Viator Team, we cannot identify the customer, as we have no full name. Whatever it is: Germany has a moderate continental climate, a bit rain in autumn is absolutely usual. More important: we had this day sunshine in the valley and no rain !! Our staff has confirmed this, our customers could confirm this, the official weather report has the same contence. Nobody was missing on the boat trip, all participants on board. You should ask this lady, how she made her trip back to Frankfurt....it would have been a complicated 1,5 hours ride by public transport.... There was no reason whatsoever to cancel the trip. It was a lovely day and everybody happy. Refund herewith strictly denied, there have not been any circumstances which would not have allowed to operate the tour or the very part of the tour by ship. Strange complaint!!! Best regards / Wolfgang

Not, a full day, Rhine Tour
Daniel_G
, Sep 2020
The so-called full day Rhône tour is misleading. It is a 75minute boat trip along a section of the Rhine sandwiched between several hours of minibus rides between Other attractions in the hills above locations on that section of the Rhine. Recommend, instead, take the train to Rüdesheim and take the boat your self. Much cheaper but no up-valley excursions.

Please take note the tour title is "Rhine Valley Trip from Frankfurt including Rhine River Cruise" not "Full Day Rhine Valley Cruise". It is clearly stated on Viator website what the tour is about and that it is not only a River Cruise. It is a trip to see the Rhine Valley. Included beside the Rhine River Cruise is lunch in a restaurant and a little wine tasting. The Rhine Valley is not located in Frankfurt. We need to drive about 50 minutes to get there and another 50 minutes to get back to Frankfurt. For all this it is a very good price. And the clients had one of the best tourguides who knows the Rhine Valley as his own pocket. This tourguide always explains so many facts of the Rhine Valley to the clients which they won't have when they do this trip on their own. Kind regards ETS Greenline Tours

Loved it
Ella_R
, Mar 2020
We loved it. The tour guide, Michael, was exceptional, full of jokes and information. He did his best to make sure our experience was super worth it. We had a few lovely stops on the way. I loved the restaurant decor (though the hostess was a little off I am guessing she's had some difficult clients in the past lol) and the wine tasting information was interesting. Never knew about ice wine. The river cruise was bliss, and I was very impressed with what they serve at the bar. Of course there was quite a bit of driving but I love just staring at the countryside so no complaints. We had a smaller than usual group on our tour as we were there in off season, and we missed out on a few things that are only available after March but definitely worth it

Decent tour but be aware of additional costs. Tour guide should leave his bitter divorce stories at home. Good introduction to the Rhine valley.

Good trip, but poor lunch

I liked the trip but the lunch included in price was just one dish, we paid for drinks and dessert. Cruise was nice. I can recommend this trip but it could be cheaper for this range of activities. But it was nice that we had a small group
