Celebrate Christmas and bring in the New Year in style on a GN Holidays adult only cruise on the Rhine River. What better way to enjoy the festivities than by partying with fellow forty-somethings surrounded by beautiful scenery? Read on for our top two getaways for the festive season.
An adult only cruise is the ideal escape if you’re keen to celebrate with like-minded travellers. Offering the perfect mixture of daytime culture highlights and evening entertainment, our 4-star New Year Party Cruise – Amsterdam to Rotterdam and Three Countries & Christmas Markets Rhine Party Cruise promise to be unforgettable. Come along and enjoy the fun, party atmosphere with us.
A Journey through the Markets
What’s Christmas without a visit to some festive markets with a glass of mulled wine in hand? Our Three Countries getaway will take you to some of the most impressive and decorated stalls out there, so whether you’re looking for striking tree ornaments, gifts for the family or a tasty treat for yourself, you’ll have no trouble finding what’s on your wish list. Here are the top spots we’ll be visiting:
- Strasbourg, France: Spend the daytime enjoying the beautifully decorated markets at your leisure before returning to the ship for dinner and some exciting live entertainment.
- Colmar, France: Wander through the cobbled streets and admire the old medieval buildings before browsing the Christmassy stalls in the heart of town during the evening.
- Mainz, Germany: Be dazzled by the festive display of lights outside the Cathedral of St Martin and browse for handcrafted gifts. The rest of the day is yours to explore the town at your own pace.
This adult only cruise also includes visits to Frankfurt, Basel and Breisach, so be prepared to explore a whole host of cultures, see various architectural styles and experience the Christmas season like never before.
Party into the Evening
Once you’ve explored the towns and their festive delights, get ready for even more excitement once you’re back on board the ship. There really is no better way to end your day on the Rhine River than by enjoying a hearty dinner followed by our on board entertainment. Free drinks will be available at the bar until 1am, so let yourself get into the party spirit with your fellow over-forties travellers and make sure each night is one you’ll never forget!
