nickoSPIRIT

nicko cruises is a German tour operator for ocean and river cruises. For over 30 years, nicko cruises' guests have been discovering a variety of European destinations as well as dream destinations worldwide. The exotic voyages include Myanmar and Vietnam. The comprehensive service and the relaxed, warm atmosphere are particularly popular with Best Agers who want to get to know the country and people of the regions they visit.

The attractively designed river boat appeals to holidaymakers of all generations, including those who have only experienced ocean cruises so far. The 110 m river ship travels the Rhine, Main and Moselle rivers, among others, and offers a wide range of possibilities for spending time on board with several restaurants as well as wellness and fitness facilities. River cruises with the trend-setting MS nickoSPIRIT take you to popular regions of Germany that captivate with scenic and cultural highlights, including the UNESCO World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley. The MS nickoSPIRIT accommodates up to 170 passengers, who appreciate the casual ambience of the modern ship. The open and light-flooded design of the public areas is impressive as soon as you enter the river ship.

The atmosphere on board the MS nickoSPIRIT is cosy, cordial and familiar, just typical nicko cruises. Whether you want to enjoy a quiet moment to read a good book or take part in a social event on board, on this ship everything is taken care of. The glazed bow area of the MS nickoSPIRIT is something very special. It offers an excellent view in all weathers through the floor-to-ceiling all-round glazing. While the sundeck is well attended in pleasant temperatures, the glazed bow area offers the best view in any weather. Here, for example, you can enjoy the clear light in the middle of winter and the view of passing snowy landscapes.

Another special feature of MS nickoSPIRIT are the three restaurants you can choose between every evening. Each restaurant offers delicious dishes and, as an accompaniment, fine wines. One of the restaurants is even waiting with a very special highlight: a light-flooded winter garden in the bow, whose visit is a special experience in every season. The glass roof provides unique moments, especially at sunset when the restaurant is bathed in warm light. Flexible table times with a free choice of tables fit perfectly into your own daily rhythm. Whether multi-course menus or the large selection of theme buffets - on river cruises with the modern ship, gourmets will be completely satisfied.

Another highlight of MS nickoSPIRIT is the generously designed wellness oasis, where you can forget the demanding everyday life and relax completely. For those who want to combine relaxation with exercise, the fitness area is the right place. The modern fitness equipment ensures that you stay in shape on a river cruise despite excellent cuisine. On land, bicycle tours complement the sporting programme and also have the advantage of being able to get to know as much of the beautiful landscape around the river as possible. For your leisure activities, there are usually theme evenings and music programmes as well as books, board and card games.

The cruise operator offers optional bookable shore excursions, which are adapted to the respective length of stay in the port. Suitable for your cruise you can book a trip package that combines the highlights of each route into a single package. On board, however, you can also book only certain elements of the excursion packages, as long as there are seats available, and make your cruise even more individual. On many excursions, an audio system is available so that you can follow the explanations of your tour guide quite relaxed, without missing interesting highlights.

Do you appreciate a river cruise in a particularly stylish and innovative ambience? Then the MS nickoSPIRIT is exactly right for you.
