Later, spend a spectacular afternoon onboard your luxurious boutique ship as you sail the Upper Middle Rhine Valley.

Mainz's Old Town brims with specialty shops tucked into lovingly restored buildings. You'll find jewelry, leather goods, books, toys-something special for every special person on your list.

    • Germersheim, Germany
    Wake up and choose your adventure for the day. Today you'll have two choices: Venture into the storied city of Baden-Baden, whose contemporary flair meshes with hot springs, spas, and unspoiled nature, or visit the Doktorenhof vinegar estate for a special vinegar tasting. The atmospheric cellar is like no other you'll ever experience, and the candlelit tasting room is decked for the holidays. If you speak no German, here's one phrase you might want to learn now: "Frohliche Weihnachten!", or "Merry Christmas!". ...

    Strasbourg, France
    • Strasbourg, France
    Strasbourg is invariably described as quaint, a rather overused word that in this case is perfectly apropos. It's also been known as the "Crossroads of Europe" for its strategic location halfway between Paris and Prague. With a friendly local expert, see this historic town with its cobbled lanes, half-timbered homes, giant stork nests, and impossible-to-resist pastry shops that will win your heart. You won't want to miss the holiday treats like buche de Noel, the delicious Christmas cake made to look like a yule log. ...
