Make the most of the advent season with this festive seasonal cruise! From Strasbourg in France, cruise along the legendary Rhine River to Speyer, one of Germany’s oldest towns, visit Mannheim, situated at the confluence of the Rhine and Neckar rivers, and discover Mainz, capital of the beautiful Rhineland-Palatinate region of Germany, where you can try local delicacies or visit the Gutenberg museum. Travel along the Main River to the commercial hub Frankfurt and onward to the romantic, medieval towns of Miltenberg and Wertheim. Finally, wrap up your cruise with a stop in Würzburg, located in the midst of the Franconian wine-growing district, and Bamberg, one of Germany’s most beautiful towns.

Pricing
Secure your spot with just a 10% deposit—no need to pay in full today.
Group savings of $150 per person, offer ends June 15, 2026.
Staterooms for this festive sailing are limited and tend to sell quickly, especially for Christmas market itineraries, so early reservations are strongly recommended. Pricing and availability is good until June 15th or until sold out.
Because this is a December 2027 departure, airfare and extension pricing will be released in early 2027. In the meantime, we recommend planning for approximately $1,200 per person for airfare, $350 per night for hotel accommodations, and $300 per person for optional tours and experiences.
Extend Your Trip! Pre & Post Extensions
Turn your river cruise into a full holiday experience—because this is one trip you won’t want to rush.
Arrive early with a 2-night pre-cruise stay in Strasbourg, including a day trip to Colmar, where cobblestone streets and half-timbered houses set the scene for some of France’s most magical Christmas markets.
Or linger a little longer with a 2-night post-cruise stay in Nuremberg, home to one of Europe’s most iconic Christmas markets—giving you extra time to soak it all in before heading home.
Both extensions will offer a selection of optional experiences to enhance your stay. Full details will be released in early 2027, at which point you’ll be able to customize your experience.
Assistance with pre and post travel plans including flights, hotels and tours will be available.
