When twinkling lights decorate the cities and the aroma of gingerbread fills the air, there is simply no better place to be than the Christmas Markets of Austria and Germany. Spend 5 memorable days cruising the Danube River, with unforgettable visits to Vienna, Krems, Linz, and Passau. Visit traditional Christkindlmarkts (Christmas Markets), both big and small, where you can immerse yourself in the jolly atmosphere of the hosting town. Raise a mug of Glühwein (warm mulled wine) with new friends, sample a sizzling sausage—hot off the grill, and stroll among the inviting wooden stalls to maybe find a holiday gift or two for loved ones back home.
In Vienna walk in the footsteps of famous composers like Mozart or Strauss, visit one of over one hundred museums, visit Palaces, listen to great music in the famous Opera House, watch the Lipizzaner horses train at the Spanish Riding School.
Krems has much to offer; museums, historical buildings like churches and abbeys, shopping and restaurants and most of all wine. Krems is surrounded by vineyards and they produce some of the best quality wines of Austria.
Visit Mauthausen concentration camp - a place of memory and a site of political and historical education or explore the Austrian countryside with a visit to Steyr or St. Florian.
