Saverne<br />

sun deck became a ‘thing’ for us passengers,<br />

with bonus points for storks sitting in them,<br />

sometimes mistaking great balls of mistletoe in<br />

the trees for nests.<br />

A guided tour and generous tasting at the Meteor<br />

brewery introduced us to one of the area’s<br />

famous exports – beer! A visit to Maison du<br />

Kochersberg museum folk museum, revealed the<br />

fascinating and unique culture of the region.<br />

It is a gentle cruise, and as the sun glistened<br />

on the water, the only sound was the low<br />

hum of the engine and birds singing in the<br />

trees. At one point a train whizzed by at top<br />

speed, highlighting the difference in our travel<br />

arrangements and all of us agreed, slow travel<br />

is the best way to experience the region.<br />

And you simply can’t go to Alsace and not<br />

eat flammekueche, tarte flambée, a local<br />

specialty, which we enjoyed at a restaurant<br />

(included with the cruise). Traditionally it’s a<br />

bread dough baked with cheese and onion,<br />

cream, and various other toppings – followed<br />

by a dessert version with apples and cream.<br />

We ended with a tour of Strasbourg and a<br />

boat ride through the oldest section of the city<br />

followed by a gala dinner where the chef pulled<br />

out all the stops to create a memorable night.<br />

You feel that you’ve really seen the secret side<br />

of this region that most visitors are unaware of,<br />

though we had barely travelled 100km during<br />

the week. A truly fabulous cruise.<br />
