Danube Enchanting Christmas Markets 2024

Winterliches Wien

Highlights of the Danube Christmas Markets

On the Danube you’ll find the city of your dreams. And then another one. And another.

From Engelhartszell (Passau) to Vienna, Bratislava, Krems, Melk and Linz to Engelhartszell (Passau).

People have celebrated the Danube in song, dedicated poems to it and written fairy tales about it. So when you are on the deck of the A-ROSA watching the wonders of nature and cities glide by, don’t be surprised if you find yourself writing unusually grandiloquent postcards and text messages to your friends back home. This happens a lot. This trip will enable you to take home European history not only as a store of knowledge but also as a heartfelt sense of life. Vienna and Budapest, the former capitals of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, are positively overflowing with stunning Baroque architecture and the finest Hungarian art nouveau. And, despite being surrounded by all this old splendour, both cities seem to keep getting younger and more dynamic. Nonconformist types will be thrilled by a visit to the self-confident Slovakian capital, Bratislava. While you’re there, make sure you orderbryndzové halušky! This national dish is made of noodles with sheep’s cheese. It’s simple but really good. Both cities are simply fantastic to experience especially in winter time.

Opernhaus Wien

Vienna

Sisi is always on TV at Christmas. Even better: go to Sisi yourself. The Danube cruise carries you solemnly through castles and monasteries standing trellis in the most beautiful landscape. Vienna is tailor-made to evoke a festive mood. Advent glows from the high windows of the magnificent old buildings, and imperial palaces, baroque churches and opulent squares with glittering Christmas markets and skating rinks seem to have sprung from a fairy tale.

Donaukreuzfahrten nach Bratislava

Bratislava

Directly at the border triangle with Austria and Hungary, on the southwestern border of Slovakia, lies the capital Bratislava, the largest city in the country. The traces of the Austrian-Hungarian dual monarchy are omnipresent in the old town. A leisurely life between baroque and rococo, palaces and palisades, art and coffee houses. Enjoy your day individually in christmassy Bratislava.

A-ROSA Städtereise nach Linz

Linz

During your cruise on the Danube you can get to know the Austrian city of Linz. Here it tingles with culture and true art treasures. At Christmas time, Linz is particularly impressive with its diverse range of Christmas markets. Get in the mood for Christmas at the Christkindlmarkt - simply wonderful!
