Combine a DFDS short cruise with a hotel break at a price that won’t break the bank

Four day Hamelin city cruise from just £195

Situated on the Weser River, the town of Hamelin was made famous by the old story of the Pied Piper. Now you can discover this legendary area and uncover the truths behind the ratcatcher’s story for yourselves, with our special cruise offer to Hamelin, Germany.

Sail from Newcastle on 28 November or 10 December, and spend two nights on one of the luxury DFDS cruise ferries. Onboard you’ll be able to truly relax and enjoy all the cruise facilities and entertainment. After arriving in IJmuiden, fully rejuvenated, you’ll travel by coach to Hamelin, in Lower Saxony. Spending a further two nights in a luxurious Mercure hotel, you’ll be just two minutes walk from the centre of the old town, where you can explore at your leisure. Take a riverboat tour, visit the house of the Pied Piper, which is covered in ornate plasterwork, or learn about the historical town at the Hameln Museum.
