Best Time to Travel

in The Romantic Rhine: Amsterdam to Basel

We are planning to take this cruise in 2026 (Covid forced us to cancel it previously). When is the best tie to take this cruise weather and crowd wise?

    We always travel in either spring or fall since we prefer cooler weather and less crowds.

    I'd chose May/Jun or early Oct. Jul/Aug is going to be the hottest and most crowded. Europe only sometimes has AC so hot weather can be brutal. Also late summer/early fall there is more likely to be a chance of low water levels that result in ships that can't move and more coach time to reach sights. Oct can be lovely with the change in colors though some cool/wet days are possible.

    Of course, any advice is a crap shoot these days wrt weather.
