The Christmas season is a cherished
time of year all over the world and a
wonderful time to explore. Embark on
a winter wonderland journey through
the very lands where our most
cherished Christmas traditions began.
From the festive markets of Austria and
Germany to France and Switzerland,
witness enchanting landscapes and
unwrap the magic of the festive season
like never before. Witness snow-kissed
mountains, picturesque villages
straight from a fairytale and majestic
centuries-old castles that line the
riverbanks as you immerse yourself in
the heartwarming traditions of
Europe's festive season.
From late November leading up to
Christmas, Europe's renowned
Christmas markets dot medieval town
squares, parks and cobblestone lanes
across the continent. A stroll through
these festive markets reveals stalls
offering a treasure trove of intricately
handmade toys, charming ornaments,
classic nutcrackers, and vibrant crafts.
The air is infused with the delightful
aromas of sweet gingerbread and
spiced mulled wine. It's an experience
beyond compare.
The spirit of Christmas doesn't end
when you return to your ship. Take part
in the joyous festivities as you bake
gingerbread biscuits alongside our
executive chef, decorate your vessel's
stunning Christmas tree and revel in
the harmonious holiday tunes
performed by a local ensemble.
Whether you opt for an early season
departure and return home in time for
Christmas, or you choose to spend the
Christmas period on board with us, you
can look forward to a holiday
experience like never before.
