Rhine Christmas Markets with Amsterdam

Trip Overview

Start with an Amsterdam city stay, settling into Europe as you wander narrow laneways adorned with twinkling lights, canals lined with beautifully preserved 17th century buildings and historic squares dressed with towering Christmas trees. Then join your 5-star Scenic Space-Ship and cruise along the legendary Rhine River, where fairytale villages and lively squares decorated with festive lights and decorations create a magical backdrop. Explore Strasbourg’s Christkindelsmärik, the oldest Christmas market in France, and visit Freiburg, gateway to the Black Forest, where traditional stalls, regional flavours and handcrafted gifts capture the spirit of the season. Sail through the spectacular Rhine Gorge, framed by hilltop castles and wintery vineyards, and enjoy an exclusive private concert in the grand Bruchsal Palace, a highlight available only to Scenic guests. Throughout your journey, be immersed in the traditions of Christmas, from the aroma of gluhwein and roasted chestnuts to markets alive with carols, light and anticipation.

Operated by Scenic Luxury Cruises & Tours aboard Scenic Jasper.
