Overview

From the City of Music to the City of Love, this enchanting journey from Prague to Paris combines the romance of a luxury river cruise with the charm of Europe’s most captivating towns. Sail through storybook landscapes along the Rhine-Main-Danube Rivers, explore renowned wine regions and hidden gems, and enjoy multi-night stays in premier hotels in the heart of both Prague and Paris.

Embark on an unforgettable 12-day journey through Europe’s most romantic cities with Tauck’s Romantic Capitals: Prague to Paris river cruise.

Begin in Prague, the “City of a Hundred Spires,” where you are in for a treat!  Because of the Tauck family connections here, you will enjoy a private aperitif and dinner at the historic Lobkowicz Palace and explore the grandeur of Prague Castle, immersing yourself in centuries of Bohemian history, art, and architecture.

As you sail along the scenic Rhine and Moselle rivers, your journey takes you to Frankfurt, a vibrant hub of modern architecture and cultural treasures; Koblenz, nestled at the confluence of two rivers and rich in historic charm; and Trier, Germany’s oldest city, where Roman monuments and ancient streets tell fascinating stories of the past.

Continue to Nürnberg, known for its medieval castle, picturesque old town, and compelling World War II history, before arriving in Bamberg, a UNESCO World Heritage city celebrated for its baroque and medieval architecture, winding rivers, and traditional smoked beer.

You'll have the opportunity to explore medieval walled towns, discover villages with unique shops and museums, partake in wine making lessons and tastings, admire art galleries, architecture and ancient artefacts.  

The cruise culminates in Paris, the timeless city of romance, where iconic landmarks, world-class museums, and elegant cafés await.

Along the way, Tauck offers exclusive experiences that set this journey apart, including a private evening at Schlosshotel Kronberg with a reception, gourmet dinner, and live music performance. Guests enjoy all-inclusive luxury, with expertly guided excursions, insider access to iconic sites, fine dining, and personalized service, making every moment effortless and unforgettable. From fairytale castles and cobbled streets to intimate cultural encounters and exceptional culinary experiences, this river cruise is perfect for travellers who cherish history, art, and European elegance.

Aranui Cruises began solely as a freighter service, adding passenger accommodation in 1984 with Aranui I. As demand for more passenger berths increased, the ships have been replaced and now the Aranui 5 combines the freighter requirements with comfortable passenger accommodations, restaurant, bars, swimming pool and more. Passengers are able to experience the magic of cruising Tahiti’s spectacular isles whilst seeing the freighter in action.

Shore excursions are included throughout the cruise, should you wish to participate. The Marquesas Islands are so remote that you won’t be overrun with other tourists. Instead, the ship is eagerly awaited by the locals who will greet you and welcome you ashore. The children are likely to take your hand and the women will delight in showing you their crafts. Learn about the ancient traditions of tattooing, the history of famous writers and artists who called the Marquesas home, or enjoy the guided walks to see the spectacular scenery and sights. You may wish to do some or all of the activities on offer, or simply sit back and watch the crew in action. However you decide to enjoy the Marquesas, this is one trip that will stand out from the rest.
