Highlights from our Travelmarvel 8-day River Cruise, as seen on Christmas Cruising with Susan Calman.

Nestled along the banks of the Main River, explore the history and charm of Miltenberg, with its quaint streets and traditional Bavarian feel, sampling local delicacies en route during an included Culinary Walking Tour.

Have the opportunity to visit Rothenburg’s truly remarkable Christmas Museum and Shop on an optional excursion. Open all year round and often with queues to get inside, even through the summer months, it really is a festive treat - no matter what time of year you visit.

You can’t help but embrace the festivities when visiting Cologne’s famously impressive Christmas Markets. One of the many markets is set in front of the iconic Kölner Dom Cathedral, which along with the thousands of twinkling lights, makes for an awe-inspiring backdrop.

Cologne’s Christmas Markets are open from mid-November, and with both November and December 2026 dates available on our Reflections of the Rhine & Main River Cruise, and fantastic offers available in our Black Friday Sale, now is a great time to book your Christmas-time adventure.
