The Rhine River

I am trying to find a reservation site for a boat tour that is supposed to be included in my rail pass. It states KDRhine is included but no where on KDRhines web page does it allow you to reserve "with your rail pass". Can anyone help me :)
We are going by rail from Amsterdam to Frankfurt and want to hop off the train and reserve boat only from Koblenz to St. Goar.

I admit that I cannot advise you on your ticket but wanted to reaffirm to you that it is a beautiful area. Enjoy your trip!

I don't think they reserve places on the boats. You just buy your ticket and get on, like a bus. They might limit the number of ticket for a particular boat, so you might want to buy your ticket as soon as you get to Koblenz.

I was there in early April, 2004, admittedly early (!) season. It was a big boat and nowhere near completely full. I spent the first part of the trip on the top deck, exposed to the wind, because I wanted to see the Loreley and the shoals below it. Most of the deck chair were unoccupied. Finally, faced with freezing, I went below. There, in the enclosed cabin, most of the seats were unoccupied. Admittedly, this was early April, maybe not high season, but there was plenty of space on the boat.

We did the KD hop-on hop-off in May,and all we used was a voucher for the date I printed off from the website. Suggest you go through the reserve process and see if the rail pass option pops up for payment.
Food wasn't bad either, however, I'm sure it is crowded during the season.
