- Day 1BaselSat, Dec 12, 2026
A delightful blend of old and new, Basel is Switzerland's best-kept secret. During the holiday season, the medieval Old Town is transformed into a magical yuletide affair. Cobblestone streets are lined with wooden chalet-style huts selling all manner of festive treats and gifts. Visitors to the Christmas market can enjoy a warming cup of aromatic glühwein in a decorated boot-shaped mug. Hand-carved tree decorations, cheerfully painted ceramics and delicious food are sold from stalls throughout the city.
- Day 2BreisachSun, Dec 13, 2026
In the heart of Breisach's old town with a backdrop of the Romanesque-Gothic St. Stephen's cathedral, the Weinachtsmarkt is a highlight of the season. Steaming aromatic glühwein served in decorated mugs, alongside tasty yuletide treats, is sold from festive wooden huts and taverns, keeping visitors warm as they browse market stalls for gifts and handicrafts. The nearby Black Forest provides a fairy-tale atmosphere; its towering, snow-covered spruce trees resemble a winter wonderland.
- Day 3StrasbourgMon, Dec 14, 2026
Strasbourg is said to be the capital of Christmas in France, with the city's cathedral square taking center stage as it is transformed into a winter wonderland. The city's Christkindelsmärik is the oldest in France, dating back to 1570. Hundreds of stalls are brimming with colorful wares, fine food and mulled wine, bringing festive cheer in abundance. Alsatian specialties feature an array of hearty classics, from bretzels (soft, bread-like pretzels) to bredele (star-shaped spiced cookies), and knacks (sausages) to pain d'epices (gingerbread).
- Day 4RüdesheimTue, Dec 15, 2026
Located in the picturesque Rhine Valley, Rüdesheim is brimming with festive cheer. The vibrant Drosselgasse, a narrow alleyway lined with decorated restaurants and bars, is the perfect place to explore and immerse in the spirit of the holiday season. Traditional Rhineland music provides the backdrop to a tankard of Christmas beer. Market stalls offer an array of tasty morsels from various nations, and local artisans demonstrate their talents with displays of unique, handcrafted gifts.
- Day 5Scenic Sailing: Middle RhineWed, Dec 16, 2026
The Rhine River flows through one of Germany's most scenic regions. As you sail its most picturesque stretch, the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Middle Rhine, you will pass vineyard-blanketed hills whose steep slopes require vintners to pick grapes by hand, keeping a centuries-old tradition alive. Splendid castles line the banks, all of which have stories to share, and the Lorelei Rock presides at a dramatic curve in the river. This infamous river maiden mesmerized sailors with her song and lured them to their demise at her feet.
- Day 6CologneThu, Dec 17, 2026
Themed winter markets feature across Cologne during the holiday season, inviting visitors to browse colorful market stalls for handmade gifts, beautiful artwork and colorful crafts. The towering Gothic Cologne Cathedral provides a stunning backdrop to the city's festivities and array of offerings from its red wooden stalls. Beneath the pointed roofs of Cologne harbor's tented market, unique crafted goods are displayed amid the twinkling lights of boats bobbing in the marina.
- Day 7Scenic Sailing: Waal & MerwedeFri, Dec 18, 2026
Sail the bucolic waters of the Rhine, deep into the Rhine–Meuse–Scheldt Delta, as classic Dutch landscapes unfurl all around. Flat farmland, charming windmills and svelte poplar trees line the shores, and vast tracts of land stretch in all directions, growing all manner of bounty, from tomatoes to tulips. Gaze upon Friesian cows and tidy villages with their neatly laid farmhouses and marvel at how much of this land was reclaimed from the sea, with the aid of traditional windmills and the construction of dikes.

Viking does a great job!
Trip was great. Food not as good as expected. Maya did a great job booking our trip for us
We enjoyed our shipboard credit that we were offered with Affordable Tours.
Sue and I felt like we were living an experience through the shoes of Maria Teresa as we were treated as royalty. The experience of traveling with the Viking River trip (Danube Waltz) was beyond our expectations and the staff was warm, respectful, and welcoming .....very accommodating. All tour guides were knowledgeable and brought history and culture back to life. We will certainly endorse the trip for our friends and give you an A+ rating. We offer a quick shout out to JOEY who was a great ambassador for your program as he ran everything perfectly on the Bragi Viking ship. We care and thanks to all staff who made our trip one we will never forget. Love and hugs to all. Sue and Bob
Everything went as promised. The only disappointment was that we thought the food was not up to our expectations. However, this is based on only 1 other cruise we have taken which was with Oceania. All other amenities were excellent.
I thoroughly enjoyed my Viking River Cruise and recommend it. The scenery, food, and history were all wonderful and I especially enjoyed learning about the culture and history of all of the countries we visited.
This was a fantastic trip. The staff paid attention to detail, the room was maticulously cleaned, the food was prepared to perfection and the tours were well coordinated. The local guides were very knowledgeable.
Excellent trip, one of the top vacations if my life. I thought that the 15 days was a bit long before leaving but it turned out that it wasn\'t long enough. I throughly loved the trip.
Completely happy with the service and the value.
We chose the Grand European Tour as it provided the most information and sites within the locations we were interested in. The Veranda AA cabin worked out well, it is worth the upgrade. The ship was very clean and all staff attentive to the traveler. Our Program Director provided current information and history along the cruise. Our stateroom was meticulously attended to, the Aquavit Lounge was our favorite spot because of our primary servers. The food was excellent thanks to Executive Chef. Overall superior care and service.
Our Viking cruise was even better than I anticipated. The entire experience was fantastic and that began with Affordable Tours, I would definitely recommend your company to others.
