Strasbourg, France
  • Strasbourg, France
Strasbourg is invariably described as quaint, a rather overused word that in this case is perfectly apropos. It's also been known as the "Crossroads of Europe" for its strategic location halfway between Paris and Prague. With a friendly local expert, see this historic town with its cobbled lanes, half-timbered homes, giant stork nests, and impossible-to-resist pastry shops that will win your heart. You won't want to miss the holiday treats like buche de Noel, the delicious Christmas cake made to look like a yule log. ...

  • Mannheim, Germany
Your ship left France behind and sailed into Germany during the wee hours of the morning. If you speak no German, here's one phrase you might want to learn now: "Frohliche Weihnachten", or Merry Christmas. Today, you'll have two choices: Venture into the storied city of Baden-Baden, whose contemporary flair meshes with hot springs, spas, and unspoiled nature, or visit the Doktorenhof vinegar estate for a special vinegar tasting. The atmospheric cellar is like no other you'll ever experience, and the candlelit tasting room is decked for the holidays. ...

Mainz's Old Town brims with specialty shops tucked into lovingly restored buildings. You'll find jewelry, leather goods, books, toys-something special for every special person on your list. Or opt to explore neighboring Wiesbaden's Christmas market. However you choose to spend your time in Mainz, you'll head back to the ship for a short cruise to Rudesheim, which, like many cities along the Rhine, dates back to Roman times, when the Rhine was the northern border of the empire. Today, Rudesheim is famous for its beauty and its entertaining alley of shops and wine bars called the Drosselgasse. ...

Rhine Gorge, Germany

Spend a spectacular morning onboard your luxurious boutique ship as you sail the Upper Middle Rhine Valley.

After sailing past 40 miles (65 kilometers) of gorgeous scenery, you'll reach the famous intersection of the Rhine and the Moselle. Here, where the two rivers meet, you'll find the enchanting town of Koblenz. Watch the waters of the Moselle gush into the Rhine as you stand on the spit of land called German Corner before embarking on a walking tour of Koblenz's historical treasures. ...
