Itinerary
Traditional Christmas markets, with their enchanting lights twinkling against the winter sky and the comforting aroma of mulled wine wafting through the air, provide the perfect festive setting for holiday preparations. These markets create a magical atmosphere where family and friends gather to celebrate the season. At the various stalls dotted throughout the market, visitors can savor a variety of delicious Christmas treats, ranging from freshly baked gingerbread cookies to warm chestnuts, and appreciate beautifully crafted handmade goods that are perfect for gift-giving. As we journey along the picturesque Rhine River, we take the time to explore some of the finest markets in the charming towns of Cologne, Rüdesheim, and Koblenz. Each market offers its own unique delights, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the captivating and vibrant atmosphere of the Advent season, filled with joy, festivity, and a sense of community that brings people together during this special time of year.
Tour program
Day 1
Dusseldorf
Day 2
Koblenz
At breakfast time, we will arrive in Koblenz, one of the most beautiful and oldest cities in Germany. The city is located in the world-famous "German Corner". The spectacular landscape formed by four central massifs, vineyards and forests surround this town, whose existence of more than two thousand years is reflected in the architectural heritage in the form of wonderful churches and palaces, old aristocratic farmhouses and the magnificent stately homes of the high bourgeoisie.
Day 3
Mainz and Rudesheim
We continue in Mainz, a city with a historical heritage of almost 2000 years. The cityscape is dominated by the cathedral. In the shadow of the temple, medieval Mainz stretches out, where life takes place in the angular and narrow alleys, in the many small shops, boutiques and cafés that surround the wonderful Kirschgarten with its romantic half-timbered houses. The panorama of Mainz seen from the Rhine side seems rather restrained. It is dominated by two eras: Modernity with the City Hall, the Hilton Hotel and the Congress Centre in the Rheingoldhalle, and the Baroque or Renaissance with the Neues Zeughaus (new arsenal), the Deutschordenshaus and the Palace of the Prince Electors.
In the afternoon, we will arrive in Rüdesheim, one of the most visited villages in the country. Historical monuments such as the Klunkhardshof, the fortified Adler Tower, the thousand-year-old Brömser Castle or the ruins of Ehrenfels Castle invite you to spend some time in this town.
Day 4
Cologne
The cathedral city hosts multiple Christmas markets. After lunch, we arrive in Cologne, Germany's oldest city, known for its cultural and historical riches, exceptional museums, and lively art scene. Explore 2000 years of history and discover monuments from the Roman Empire to modern times. Guided tours of Cologne are available.
Day 5
Dusseldorf
Explore the Christmas markets in this cathedral city. Extend your visit with an overnight hotel stay after morning arrival and enjoy breakfast before departure. Safe travels!
Check-out from 9:00
