Today's Rhine tour led us this time from Oberdiebach via Manubach to the wonderful Bacharach
This time Steffi was also part of the party.
Great views over the Rhine, a cute half-timbered village, Stahleck Castle, the old town of Bacharach and the Fürstenberg ruins were the highlights of this interesting tour.
In terms of culinary delights, nothing to be desired …
