Danube Christmas Market River Cruise with Crystal Cruises
Ready to have your breath taken away by the snow-capped mountains and quaint destinations dotting the Danube Rive with a Christmas Market River Cruise?
We were able to board the Crystal Mozart around noon on day one! Upon arrival, we got settled onto the ship, explored a bit, and then jumped on the complimentary shuttle into town to explore Vienna.
We opted for an early night so we could get ready for our upcoming whirlwind adventure!
