Experience Europe’s magical Christmas traditions

Experience the quintessential European Christmas on a river cruise through the continent during the festive season. Rug up and embrace the winter magic as you explore bustling yuletide markets, marvel at twinkling decorations, be swept away by the warmth of traditions and, with a touch of luck, the season’s first snowflake might settle gently on your nose.

Embrace the allure of Christmas time in Europe. From Santa Claus to Christmas trees and exchanging gifts, many of our most treasured festive traditions began here. Experience them all on this 15 day cruise along the Main, Rhine and Danube rivers. Browse the glorious Christmas markets as you sip on warming mugs of spiced mulled wine, visit fairytale palaces and enjoy an exclusive classical concert in the Palais Liechtenstein as you make your way from Amsterdam to Budapest on your luxurious Scenic Space-Ship.
