Traveling along the Elbe River in March - Rick Steves
2024年8月4日 · I can't speak to the cruises or all places along the Elbe, but I can say that March can be really anything. Here in Hamburg there is typically a day in late March or early April where it snows for the day--just a day, just flurries. But we also have our first spring weather with days in the 50s and even 60s.
Elbe river info - Rick Steves Travel Forum
2016年4月19日 · We are to take a river cruise on the Elbe as part of a tour. We have heard that the water level on the Elbe can be a problem (a cruise turns into a bus trip...). We are going in mid-May and are hoping that spring water levels are more reliable. Does anyone know how to check on water levels? The only sites I've found are in German which I don't ...

WI: Romans frontier in the Elba river | alternatehistory.com
2018年11月14日 · I would argue that the Elbe would be easier to garrison then the Rhine due to it's position further east but not much further north and the ease with which the Romans can create a road link between the Elbe and the Danube in Bohemia, which would also make it easier to reinforce the northern or middle empire in the event that a barbarian invasion breaches the …

Would Roman Empire borders on the Elbe/Carpathian Mountains …
2017年8月8日 · Here's a map: blue lines are river borders, red lines are land. The shortest border, and the one with basically no land border, would be Vistula/Dniester (Tyras), but good luck getting that. Next shortest land border is the actual Roman Empire border (minus Dacia).
AHC: Rome extends to the Elbe | alternatehistory.com

Viking River Cruise not worth the time or money - Rick Steves
2024年2月2日 · Amsterdam has 5 river cruise ports, because of the number of river cruise ships now in use. But at the main one, between the Ocean terminal and Central Station, it is quite usual to see vessels breasted up for embarkation and disembarkation.

River Cruising w/German Companies - Rick Steves Travel Forum
2023年1月11日 · My mom and I did a Viking River cruise in 2018 on the Elbe and enjoyed it.
