"Family-friendly river cruises run in partnership with AmaWaterways that spotlight Europe’s historic Christmas markets along the Danube and Rhine. These itineraries stop in seasonal destinations across Germany, Austria and France—options include Rhine voyages that showcase Amsterdam’s canals lit for the holidays and Danube trips with shore excursions to Vienna’s festive ice-skating rinks—while providing all-inclusive meals and onboard holiday activities like gingerbread cookie decorating and mulled-wine tastings." - Carly Caramanna Carly Caramanna Carly Caramanna is a theme park and travel journalist who has spent her professional career in New York City, Nashville, and Los Angeles.
