Cologne – Koblenz – Linz – Cologne
- With top carnival bands!
- Live performances in an exclusive club atmosphere on board
- Also on board: BLÄCK FÖÖSS, PAVEIER and KNALLBLECH

The fact that our carnival journey begins in Cologne is almost a must. Coming on board in a good mood, a thrilling river cruise on the Rhine awaits you that is hard to beat. Every evening, well-known live bands perform to really heat up the atmosphere on board. The Cologne dialect and carnival bands PAVEIER and BLÄCK FÖÖSS will be there this time as well as the Bonn brass band KNALLBLECH. Popular hits such as "Mir han e Hätz für Kölle" and "Ävver bitte bitte met jeföhl" by BLÄCK FÖÖSS or "Leev Marie" and "Uns jeiht et joot" by PAVEIER create the best carnival atmosphere in no time at all. And when KNALLBLECH performs well-known party anthems live with wind instruments, the band easily wins the hearts of the audience with their live concert on the Lady Diletta. But this carnival tour also has many highlights to offer during the day: In Koblenz, the Carnival Museum and a visit to the Old Brewery await you, while in the Rhine city of Linz you will be enchanted by several colorful architectural monuments. Whether it's Helau in Koblenz or Alaaf in Cologne – the best atmosphere is always there.
