A Viking Christmas market cruise in 2025 is an immersive and festive way to experience the magic of the holiday season. These cruises typically depart from major European cities such as London, Paris, and Amsterdam, and sail to destinations such as Germany, Austria, and Hungary, where guests can explore enchanting Christmas markets and soak up the festive atmosphere.
One of the major benefits of a Viking Christmas market cruise is the opportunity to visit multiple markets in a short amount of time. With stops in several different cities, you can experience the unique traditions and offerings of each market. For example, the Christkindlmarkt in Nuremberg is renowned for its traditional wooden toys and ornaments, while the Dresden Striezelmarkt is famous for its delicious stollen bread and mulled wine. By cruising with Viking, you can easily visit all of these markets and more, without the hassle of planning and booking multiple trips.
