Würzburg

Port Würzburg stands out as a compact, culture-rich gateway on the Main that turns a routine river call into an immersive Bavarian experience. Its signature experiences weave seamlessly from ship to shore: guided visits to the Würzburg Residence, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famed for its lavish Baroque architecture and grand staircase, followed by a walk across the Old Main Bridge for sweeping views of the Marienberg Fortress; wine lovers can visit nearby Franconian cellars for tastings that pair bright Rieslings with traditional Bavarian cuisine in welcoming wine taverns. The port’s location also provides close access to Würzburg’s other masterpieces, including Dom St. Kilian, Neumünster, and the fortress-topped skyline, as well as museum visits and a scenic Main River promenade. Fleet features include intimate, shallow-draft river ships designed for easy center-city calls, expansive decks for panoramic river views, and onboard programs that highlight wine culture and local cuisine. Onboard services are tailored for seamless exploration, with multilingual shore-excursion desks, smooth embarkation and disembarkation, attentive crew, and optional in-room tastings and dining that extend the day’s discoveries into elegant evenings aboard.
