⚓️✨ Koblenz: Where Two Rivers Meet & Magic Happens
If your river cruise takes you along the Rhine or the Moselle in French (or Mosel in German), you’re in for a treat — because Koblenz sits right where these two legendary rivers come together in a dramatic embrace known as the Deutsches Eck (“German Corner”).
It’s one of those places where you step off the ship, look around, and instantly think:
Ahhh… this is why people fall in love with river cruising.
🌊 What Makes Koblenz So Special
• The Confluence: Watch the blue‑green Moselle flow into the mighty Rhine — a natural spectacle you’ll never forget.
• The Fortress: Ride the cable car up to Ehrenbreitstein Fortress for sweeping views over both rivers.
• The Old Town: Cobblestone lanes, fountains, wine taverns, and charming squares that feel like stepping into a storybook.
• Wine Country Vibes: You’re right at the gateway to the Moselle’s world‑famous Riesling region.
🗺️ A Perfect Stop for River Cruisers
Koblenz is a highlight on many Rhine and Moselle itineraries — and here’s a fun fact for travelers planning ahead:
The Moselle River is fully included on our Rhine Map, available on our website for purchase. It’s the perfect companion for exploring this beautiful region with confidence and curiosity.
Which river is calling your name today — the mighty Rhine or the romantic Moselle or BOTH?

😄✨ “My Maps Are Talking Again…”
I was trying to organize my desk…
And suddenly, my European River Maps started whispering:
“Pack a suitcase, darling. The Rhine, the Main (yes, pronounced MINE), and the Danube await!”
But then the Seine chimed in with a very French
“Oh là là… don’t forget about me!”
And of course the Rhône and the Saône had to jump in too —
because the famous French rivers never miss a moment.
Oh, decisions, decisions.
If your travel dreams talk back to you, don’t worry —
You’re in the right place.
Which river is calling your name today 🚢💙

If you’re new here, welcome aboard.
If you’ve been with us from the beginning, thank you for being part of this adventure.
River Cruise Maps started with one simple frustration:
As a Cruise Director, I watched guests struggle with long, cartoon maps printed on flimsy paper — maps that didn’t answer the questions they asked every single day. Where are we? What’s ahead? What am I looking at?
There was nothing on the market that truly helped travelers understand the rivers they were exploring.
So together with my smart husband, Peter we created the map I wished my passengers had.
Today, River Cruise Maps is the only product of its kind — durable, water‑resistant, tear‑proof, beautifully designed, and packed with real river information you can actually use. Whether you’re sailing, selling river cruises, or dreaming of your next journey, these maps were made for you.
They’re more than navigation tools. They’re companions. They’re keepsakes. They’re the missing piece that turns a cruise into an adventure.
I took a picture comparing the front of our map to what most ships sell. Notice the front, back, and size – ours fits more easily in your pocket!
Our motto:
How can we call ourselves true adventurers without a map
Thank you for joining us. This is just the beginning — and we’re so glad you’re here.

When in Basel, Switzerland you can experience the Rhine River like a local! In the summer, the Kleinbasel banks of the Rhine are the place to be! You can put your clothes in a “Wickelfisch” swim bag you buy it at the tourist office for 20 Swiss Franc (CHF)) and simply float down on the gentle current through the picturesque Old Town. sounds fun and refreshing!!

Why a River Cruise Map is More Than Just a Guide!
In today’s digital world, it’s easy to rely on our phones for directions and information. But there’s something truly special about holding a beautifully crafted map in your hands—especially when it’s a keepsake from your river cruise adventure.
📍 A Story in Every Fold – Unlike a fleeting phone screen, a map becomes part of your journey. It traces the rivers you’ve sailed, the cities you’ve explored, and the memories you’ve made along the way. Long after your cruise, it remains a tangible reminder of your travels.
🗺️ See the Whole Picture – A map offers a broad view of your route, helping you appreciate the full scope of your journey without distraction. Instead of pinching and zooming on a phone, you can lay it out, take it all in, and plan your next adventure with ease.
✍️ A Personal Touch – Mark your favorite stops, jot down notes, and highlight special moments. Your map becomes uniquely yours—a record of discoveries that no GPS app can replicate.
💫 A Keepsake with Character – Unlike a digital file that disappears into folders, a physical map has personality. It’s something you can frame, revisit, and share with others—a conversation piece that sparks nostalgia and excitement.
On your next river cruise, let your map be more than a guide—let it be a treasure trove of memories. Because some journeys deserve more than a screen swipe.
