The cruises on the Main do seem to have some bus travel involved, in part because the Main is a working river and is often flanked by the industrial parts of the cities you pass through. Still, on the Uniworld Main tour DW and I took a few years ago, the longest stretch of bus travel was from Prague to Nuremberg. Otherwise is was mostly intracity transit.
Quite a few years ago we cruised the Rhone River in France, and I would gladly do that trip again. Tack on a few extra days in Lyon (known as the gustatory capital of France) and a few more at the other end of the trip, at Arles, Marseilles and particularly in the Camargue. The boat docked in the heart of all but a couple of the cities it visited; we also enjoyed visiting the home of one of the guides in a medieval village on the river.
A neighbor whose wife is a travel agent recently took a Rhone cruise and also enjoyed it a great deal.
