£999pp—Peak-summer Rhine cruise on new ship

We've negotiated a peak-summer Rhine cruise with flights for £999 per person. When we researched the offer, the only other similar options under £1000 elsewhere were for 3-night sailings. This one includes five nights on a new ship, plus a night in Frankfurt, so is excellent value. This is a Club offer, negotiated exclusively for our Club Members.

Itinerary

• Frankfurt... you'll stay overnight at a city centre hotel, then embark on The Nobleman in the morning.
• Rüdesheim... you could discover Rüdesheim's famous wines, hike through a local vineyard, or ride the cable car to the Niederwald Monument.
• Plittersdorf... we recommend cycling on the riverbanks, or exploring the rose garden at the labyrinthine Rheinaue State Park.
• Strasbourg... this half-timbered city is admired for its blend of French and German culture. You can wander the pretty Petite France district or hop on a boat tour through the winding riverways.
• Mannheim... combines a Baroque 18th-century palace with soaring glass buildings and urban parks. It is great for exploring on foot.
• Cologne... this 2000-year-old city is the Rhine's cultural hub. You could see the Picassos at the Museum Ludwig and snap pictures in front of the gothic Cathedral.
• Dusseldorf... the old town, or Aldstadt, has over 300 bars and restaurants—so many that it is known as the "world's longest bar".
