Get your Christmas off to a magical start on this wonderful A-ROSA river cruise along the Austrian stretch of the Danube. The Premium Inclusive A-ROSA experience is designed to offer choice, comfort and quality in a fun, casual-yet-stylish way. Enjoy gourmet buffet dining with live cooking stations, cocktails or other drinks from the bars on board and special discounts on treatments at the on-board spa. There'll be festive specials and activities on offer, as well as free Wi-Fi throughout the ship and bottled water, toiletries and bathrobes in your cabin.
Sail through the spectacular Wachau Valley to Vienna, where you'll find the elegant buildings and streets festooned with decorations and strung with festive lights. After an included city tour explore the many Christmas markets, from Spittelburg to the Freyung. The next day, spend the morning in Bratislava’s charming old town, home to one of the up and coming Xmas markets in Europe with a wide range of crafts and presents on offer at excellent prices. Your final day is spent in cosmopolitan Linz. You'll spend the final afternoon and evening of your cruise here, giving you the chance to sample a slice or two of the city's namesake delicacy, the sweetly nutty and fruity Linzertorte, before beginning the final leg of your festive cruise.

Travel to Munich, then board your included transfer and cross the Austrian border to Engelhartszell where your contemporary A-ROSA vessel will be waiting, ready to get underway this afternoon. Alternatively, make your own way from home to the ship, in your own time, in time to embark.
After a morning cruising through the stunning scenery of the Wachau Valley and eastwards down the Danube, the A-ROSA FLORA will arrive in Vienna. Discover the city's Baroque palaces, historic churches and museums, elegant shopping arcades and pleasant open spaces on an included tour, then head out to explore. Stroll streets adorned with festive lights, browse the stalls of the city's Christmas markets searching for that perfect gift, or settle into the elegant warmth of one of the many historic Viennese coffee houses.
One of the most famous markets is in the shadow of Schonbrunn Palace. This magnificent building was an Imperial summer home, and once echoed with the music of the young Mozart. In the run up to Christmas the great courtyard is home to a colourful Christkindlmarkt offering still more festive gifts and treats.
The A-ROSA local destination scout will be on hand to assist you with suggestions to get the best from your time in Vienna.
This morning we visit Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, a city transformed with festive lights and markets. Head for the Main Square and Hviezdoslavovo Square where you will find mulled wine, arts, crafts, candles, woollens and other ideas for Xmas presents back home. The other market is at Bratislava Castle, which looks imperiously over this attractive city. After lunch on board the A-ROSA FLORA, we sail northbound towards the culturally-rich city of Linz.
You'll arrive in Linz this afternoon. Stroll through the picturesque Christmas market on Hauptplatz, the city's main square, stop for coffee and cake, or ride the Postlingbergbahn mountain tramway to the top of the small mountain that dominates the north of the city. Explore, relax and enjoy all the choices on offer before A-ROSA FLORA departs just before midnight.
Say goodbye to A-ROSA FLORA and your new friends as you disembark in Engelhartszell, and begin your journey home.
