European Christmas Markets

European Christmas Markets have a distinctive, unique feel. With decorative Christmas lights, an abundance of different cultures, and traditional festive dishes, there is so much to explore.

On our ‘Christmas Markets of the Rhine’ tour, we visit three of the most popular Christmas markets in Europe; Koblenz Christmas Market, Rudesheim Christmas Market, and Heidelberg Christmas Market.

These German Christmas Markets are decorated with Christmas lights and have small wooden chalets which sell local traditional food such as Bratwurst (German sausage) and Lebkuchen (A German gingerbread-like cake) and home-made/artisan products like soaps and candles.

European River Cruising

European rivers are like no other- with impressive vineyards, luscious greenery, and unique architecture on either side of you as you cruise down Europe’s waterways.

Our river cruises are a fabulous escape from everyday life, providing beautiful scenery aboard a comfortable floating accommodation along some of Europe’s finest rivers. Our European river cruises are full-board, meaning you will be provided with three meals every day featuring continental dishes and unique international meals.

River cruises with Grand UK are one of the best European holiday packages available; we offer door-to-door travel, and included excursions, and we are also fully ABTA bonded so that you can sit back, relax, and enjoy your River Cruise.
