Rhine River Christmas Market Cruise, a Lovely & Charming Week

From the friendly and extraordinarily crew to the delicious meals to the beautiful ship—decorated for Christmas—to the excellent land tours and local guides, this experience was everything I’d been looking forward to for a couple of years…and MORE! Four female family members traveling together, we opted for two lowest floor staterooms and were not disappointed. In the cold winter season, we didn’t spend any time in our rooms and didn’t need a balcony. The meals, including appetizers, drinks, and desserts, were directed toward each local region’s culture, and they were always so tasty and lovely. Every single crew member was over-the-top (in the nicest way) attentive and friendly, taking care of us 24/7. The local guides and tours were amazing. The European Christmas markets along the Rhine were as wonderful as we had imagined, with one caveat: I would prefer to have chosen to begin our cruise in Basel because the markets in Breisach, Freiburg, and Strasbourg had the highest quality, most locally-crafted items to buy. Getting closer to Amsterdam, however, the markets’ decorations were the most visually outstanding. I am totally enamored with the European approach to Christmas! If you are considering booking a Viking river cruise, my advice would be to choose a region you are really interested in because the programs are 100% tuned to education and enrichment of the area’s history and culture. Those Viking commercials on public television are NOT just hype!
