The passenger ferries run from the end of March to the end of October and only from Friday to Sunday. It was a very nice tour.

April lived up to its reputation today.

After the ferry, we headed towards Rees in a very strong, cold headwind. At one point we had already considered turning back.

The return journey with beautiful sunshine and a tailwind made up for it.

From the dike we had a great view of storks, herons and newly born lambs.

Nice tour with a 1-hour wait at the Bislich ferry (nice and warm weather on May 1st)

I can only recommend the route between Xanten and Rees to anyone looking for an absolutely relaxed dyke tour along the Rhine. If you don't want to use the ferry at Rees, you can also take the bridge.

Relatively easy tour when there is no wind. Translate with the ferries, before checking whether they drive at all. A nice stop at the end on the Xanten side in the restaurant for the Rhine ferry. Always delicious 😋 Nice view.
