I moved myself and a motoguzzi from Basel to Rotterdam by rhein barge a few years ago.
only four days, but great scenery, and much more chilled than riding Mways that far.

Some of those old travel documentaries have been on telly in the past year. Palin took to a cargo ship in one of them as it was the only way to get to the particular place he wanted to get to. He shared food with the crew and other passengers on it. However he didn't travel on a massive container ship.
I just can't see the point unless you are a stowaway and not paying for the privilege.
