Our Advent-season river cruises are an insider secret. The scent of roasted almonds, baked apples and mulled wine fills the ship throughout a journey that will enchant you from the very first day.
Full of Christmas spirit, Cochem awaits you in the idyllic Moselle region with romantic timbered houses, winding alleys and the venerable Reichsburg. Ancient Koblenz is also a charming host city in winter, with over 2,000 years of history and plenty of fantastic Christmas shopping.
Rüdesheim is the highlight of the Advent journey. Here, you can soak up the atmosphere of the romantic Christmas market with Europe’s largest manger display, as well as Christmas traditions from 12 different countries. Frankfurt invites you to explore its festive Christmas market around the Römerberg district, which is more than 600 years old. Last but not least, with its beautiful cathedral, Mainz gives you the perfect opportunity to combine relaxed Christmas shopping with fascinating cultural activities.
