Here's my Emerald Cruises review from when I cruised on Emerald Star on a Danube river cruise.​

With our hats, scarves, and gloves packed, we were ready to take on the Christmas markets and visit the many unspoiled locations throughout this trip.

Despite only travelling for a few days, quantity does not equate to quality. River cruising proves this.

If you haven’t tried a River cruise before, why not give it a go? I would highly recommend this to anybody of any age.

Take a look at our top picks for the most enchanting Christmas markets you might come across on a European river cruise.
