Holidays are so special, they are amazing on a cruise. Spending Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah and New Years are trips of dreams to add to your travel journey.
US Thanksgiving is not traditionally celebrated outside the US. Although some non US based cruise lines may offer a traditional Thanksgiving meal on that date, you will not always find Turkey and Cranberries abroad.
European Christmas Markets are a great way to experience River Cruising, and usually are some of the best values of the year. The Rhine/Danube and other itineraries are often late into November and early December. If you don’t mind packing your coat, gloves and scarf…you’ll get a view into how Europeans celebrate the Christmas Season.
Most Cruise lines will be decorating the ship throughout December into the New Year. You will find an abundance of Christmas trees, wreaths, holly and jolly Santa Hats for weeks on most December cruises. Expect a feast for Christmas Day, and typically all types of activities such as gingerbread house building and caroling for the whole family to enjoy.
New Years is a blast! First of all you have a designated driver and a plethora of venues and entertainment for any countdown fun! The ship is likely to provide party hats and honkers, along with a midnight champagne toast. Don’t be surprised if you find Santa out of “uniform” on a New Years cruise. Santa needs a break too! We met three Kris Kringles on our last New Years trip.
Planning in advance is key! Holiday trips book up quickly, especially leading into late September and October. Consider skipping the holiday hassle and booking a Holiday trip next time!
