Encounters Europe Bringing the classroom to life

Rhine Valley

The River Rhine, the commercial artery of Europe, lends its name to one of the best known areas in Germany. It is a land of fairytale castles, gothic churches, folklore and legends, all steeped in history and tradition. Since 2002, the romantic middle Rhine has been registered as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site.

Also to be found in the Rhineland is Phantasialand, one of Europe’s top theme parks.

Prices from £234 for 4 nights, full board by coach
