Port information & tips for Koblenz
Koblenz is one of Germany's oldest cities and is picturesquely situated at the world-famous confluence of the Rhine and Moselle. The history-steeped backdrop at the gateway to the UNESCO World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley impresses with its romantic charm and lively riverfront promenades. Glamorous highlights include the monumental Deutsches Eck with the Kaiser Wilhelm Monument and the imposing Ehrenbreitstein Fortress, which can be reached comfortably across the Rhine via the spectacular Koblenz Cable Car. River cruise ships dock directly at the central berths at Konrad-Adenauer-Ufer or Peter-Altmeier-Ufer. From these first-class moorings, the historic Old Town with the famous Schängelbrunnen fountain is reachable in just a few minutes' walk, allowing for a perfect and uncomplicated shore excursion.
Koblenz is an excellently accessible starting point for river cruises thanks to its central location at the confluence of the Rhine and Moselle. The docking points at Peter-Altmeier-Ufer and Konrad-Adenauer-Ufer are located in the immediate vicinity of the historic city center and are logistically perfectly connected.
Car
Koblenz is easily accessible from all directions via the A48 and A61 motorways as well as the B9 and B42 federal roads. Nearby parking garages such as the Schloßgarage or the Görresplatz underground car park offer secure parking for the duration of the trip, and specialized providers such as Park & Boat arrange guarded parking spaces including a shuttle service directly to the respective pier.
Train
Koblenz Hauptbahnhof serves as an important hub in the Deutsche Bahn long-distance network with regular ICE and IC connections from major cities such as Cologne, Frankfurt, and Stuttgart. You can reach the piers on the banks of the Rhine comfortably from the station within about five to ten minutes by taxi or by local buses heading towards the center and Deutsches Eck.
Airplane
For guests traveling from further away, the international airports Frankfurt am Main (FRA) and Cologne/Bonn (CGN) are ideal options, both of which are well-connected to the region. Direct and fast train connections are available from the long-distance stations of both airports, allowing you to reach the port of Koblenz in a relaxed journey time of about 60 to 90 minutes.
Check-in & Embarkation
Please note that your travel documents usually include a fixed time slot for check-in, which is binding for your embarkation. Plan sufficient time for your journey to the port and bear in mind that the latest embarkation time - depending on the cruise line and destination - is generally scheduled for about one hour before the planned departure.
The following also applies during the journey: for shore excursions, you should be back on board at least one hour before departure. Always pay attention to the current announcements and notices on board, as mooring and departure times may change at short notice.
