Elbe river cruises : Prague, Berlin Hamburg and Amsterdam

2023 Elbe cruise departures available now!

The Elbe is a Central European river which rises in the Krkonose Mountains in the Czech Republic and traverses most of Germany before arriving at the North Sea. The Vltava is a major tributary that joins the Elbe north of Prague. We propose a lovely 9-day trip between Prague and Berlin on board a river paddleboat that will be docked in Prague!

Several iconic Northern and Central European cities can be explored on an Elbe river cruise: Amsterdam, with its numerous canals and museums dedicated to renowned painters, Berlin the Capital of Germany with a fascinating history, Hamburg the second largest city in Germany famous for its harbor and the Alster, and Prague, characterized by its architectural gems including the Charles Bridge and its castle.

CroisiEurope offers Themed cruises according to the seasons.

From Prague to Amsterdam via Berlin, this Elbe river cruise has everything you need. Cross the cradle of Germanic culture and embark on a cruise to discover the heart of Europe.
