When twinkling lights decorate the cities and the aroma of gingerbread fills the air, there`s no better place to be than the Christmas Markets of Austria and Germany. Spend five memorable days cruising the Danube, with unforgettable visits to Vienna, Melk, Mauthausen, Linz, and Passau. Visit traditional Christkindlmarkts (Christmas Markets), where you can bask in the jolly atmosphere of charming towns and bustling cities. Raise a mug of Glühwein (warm mulled wine) with new friends; sample sizzling sausages—hot off the grill; and stroll among the inviting wooden huts to find the perfect trip memento or a holiday gift or two for loved ones back home!
