Ferry to Calais and on to our hotel in Remagen
Our day starts in the German town of Boppard, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Rhine Gorge and home to pristine, fairytale-like buildings, where we board the train for our journey on the Hunsrück Mountain Railway. Our route takes us across the verdant landscapes of the Rhine valley, winding our way through the forests of Boppard for some spectacular views of this unspoilt region’s natural beauty. Afterwards we have some free time to explore the charms of Boppard at our leisure before embarking on a scenic drive through the magnificent Rhine Valley.
We travel to Engeln for our second railway journey on the Volcano Express (Vulkan), a narrow-gauge railway that takes us up into the beautiful Eifel Mountains and on to Brohl-Lützing, offering some spectacular photo opportunities along the way.
We also spend time in Cochem. Surrounded by steep vineyards, this lovely town of half-timbered houses and winding streets also boasts a flower-bedecked promenade and a magnificent castle that rises dramatically above the town.
Travel back to Calais for our return ferry home.

Rheinstein Hotel, Rüdesheim
The Rheinstein Hotel enjoys a central location on the Rhine promenade, just a short walk away from the Drosselgasse. This hotel offers en-suite rooms with a flat-screen TV, free Wi-Fi, a bar and restaurant.
Hotels with a JG3 rating tend to be a more formal style of hotel, often part of a hotel chain, or are very-welcoming family-owned properties. Generally, they offer a greater range of facilities and services, and bedrooms tend to be a little more spacious with additional features. Public areas are larger and include lounge seating, bar and restaurant with good quality food served either buffet style or waiter service.
Exclusive to the JG Travel Group, the design of these coaches has been meticulously thought through with your comfort in mind – with only 44 seats meaning more room on board and padded seats. There’s improved legroom and a footrest, making certain that wherever you sit, you’ll be able to relax and enjoy your journey. We know it’s the small things that make a big difference in terms of ease and added convenience, so our JG Explorer coaches feature a floor-level, rear-mounted toilet, accessible to all customers.
