Christmas trees aglow with candles, the strains of “Silent Night,” and spicy gingerbread. The spirit of the season is all around as you cruise the storied Danube for 7 nights aboard the privately owned 162-passenger M/S River Aria. Explore the most beloved ports of Austria and Germany, visiting Christmas markets and medieval towns dressed for the holidays.

Christmas markets trace their origins to the 15th and 16th centuries in Europe. The earliest recorded market began on Christmas Eve in 1434. These markets were initially held to celebrate various religious feast days, with the winter market often being the largest. They served as a hub for local artisans to sell goods such as pottery, meat and baked goods, providing communities with essential supplies during the winter months. As time progressed, the focus of these markets shifted more towards Christmas celebrations. By the 19th century, the markets began to feature Christmas trees, Nativity scenes and toys, reflecting the growing association of these markets with the holiday season.

Grand Circle Cruise Line’s Rhine, Mosel, Main, and Danube ships were designed specifically to create an unforgettable European river cruise experience for American travelers. Explore storybook landscapes with a local Grand Circle Program Director and enjoy the attentive onboard service of our top-notch ship crew.
