To many, Christmastime in the Old World is the definitive way to spend the holiday season. Maybe it's the landscapes shimmering with festive holiday lights. Or the familiar melodies of "Silent Night" and "O Christmas Tree" sung in their original German. Or maybe it's the excitement of the traditional Christkindlmarkt, brimming with handmade toys and ornaments and filled with delicious aromas of freshly baked cookies and hot mulled wine. Perhaps it's a combination of all these, plus the relaxing ease and convenience of a River Cruise. This Grand Circle exclusive is a wonderful gift to yourself that will remain a treasured holiday memory for years to come.
