Christmas Markets River Cruises

Take a River Cruise and Explore the Christmas market traditions through the Danube and Rhine Rivers. Enjoy an immersive experience celebrating the varied cultures of five Central European countries. In the first weeks of December, seasonal Christmas markets fill the town squares with the sights and sounds of Christmas. Shop keepers in festive stalls offer baked goods, sweets, toys and local specialties. Artisans present their handmade crafts, nutcrackers, lace and blown glass ornaments. The aromas of roasted chestnuts, spiced cookies, mulled wine and evergreen vine for your attention. Enjoy a relaxing river cruise on the Rhine or Danube rivers in the winter.

Join both locals and visitors as they prepare for the holidays during this late-season cruise along the Danube. Sail aboard a ship designed for viewing the enchanting riverside vistas, through panoramic windows, from the sun deck, or from the comfort of your private, river-view cabin. Onboard meals, prepared by European chefs, include a choice of entrées, regional specialties and traditional favorites.
