CHRISTMAS RIVER CRUISES

“We are new to cruising and thought this would be a nice introduction, and we were not wrong. Forget all those television advertisements of long sunny days cruising; this is definitely the best time of year to go, and you’ll get the chance for some serious Christmas shopping. The food on board the ship was remarkable, and the vessel was beautifully decorated for the festive season. Highly recommended”

“A pre-Christmas warm-up for us, experienced cruisers, this is the first time we have travelled outside the summer months. The Christmas markets are every bit as good as people say they are, and it’s impossible not to get caught up in that fairytale festive magic. The food and accommodation were exceptional, as always, and there were lots of lovely Christmas touches on the ship, like a tree and seasonal food. It’s a great way to start Christmas.”

“An early surprise Christmas present to my better half, what a lovely way to start the festive season. My wife is usually stuck in the kitchen, so this was a special treat to be waited on hand and foot, and the shopping in the markets was spectacular. It’s lovely to see these cities all decorated for Christmas, and the impact from the waterside is magical.”

“Our third Christmas cruise, we are Mr and Mrs Christmas, and what a treat these few days are and a great chance to buy some original and unusual presents. Great food, great company, and stunning port stops, as always. If you’ve never done a Christmas cruise, then you are seriously missing out.”
