The Colors of Alaska

Red – Berries are bountiful in Alaska thanks to long summer days and cooler average temperatures. Salmonberries pop up along streams, on shorelines, and across moist forest floors and have a slight sweetness that is tasty off the bush or boiled into jam. Lingonberries grow in the tundra or in rocky, peaty forest soil and ripen later in the season. Their crisp tart flavor becomes more mellow when cooked and sweetened, so they are often enjoyed in syrup or jam.

The Colors of Alaska

From sweeping shorelines to grassy interiors to snowy mountain peaks, Alaska's natural beauty delights tourists who sail and tour the state in the spring, summer, and fall months. Returning home, travelers often find themselves thinking about their time in The Last Frontier and dreaming about the breathtaking landscapes nature has painted across the state.

The color palette of Alaska is truly something to behold!

✈️ Miriam’s Travel Corner

I know it may feel a little early to think about Christmas while we're still enjoying summer!

But special trips like these are exactly the kind I recommend planning ahead. The itinerary, sailing date and cabin you want can make a big difference in your experience.

And this isn't only a couples trip!

I love the idea for friends traveling together, mother-daughter trips, adult families, couples and small groups who want to do something different for the holidays.

Could you see yourself spending Christmas season in Europe?

Comment below with CHRISTMAS MARKETS, and I'll help you explore the river cruise options.

Maybe this is the year for the future trip you finally put on the calendar. 🎄

🎄 5 Experiences That Make a Christmas Market River Cruise So Special

1. Wake up in another European Christmas destination
2. Shop centuries-old town squares filled with festive markets
3. Taste the holidays from country to country
4. See Vienna, Budapest, Strasbourg or Cologne dressed for Christmas
5. Unpack once while Europe comes to you

🎁 Who would love this type of trip?

It's especially appealing for couples, friends traveling together, mother-daughter trips, adult families and small groups. It's also a wonderful choice for clients who have already visited Europe during spring or summer and want to experience familiar destinations in a completely different way.

One thing I make clear to clients is that Christmas Market dates matter. Many traditional markets close shortly before Christmas, so someone specifically traveling for the markets should choose the sailing dates carefully rather than assuming any December river cruise will provide the same experience.

✨ Rhine vs. Danube Christmas Markets

The Rhine is wonderful for clients who picture storybook scenery and classic Western European Christmas destinations. Viking's Christmas on the Rhine travels between Basel and Amsterdam, with experiences including Basel, Breisach, Strasbourg, the Rhine Valley and Cologne.

The Danube gives you a wonderful combination of grand European capitals and smaller historic towns. Viking's Christmas on the Danube connects Regensburg and Budapest, with Passau, the Wachau Valley and Vienna along the way.

For a first Christmas Market cruise, I'd be especially drawn to the Danube because of the combination of Vienna + Budapest + Regensburg + Passau. It gives clients both grand-city Christmas celebrations and intimate medieval-town markets.

The atmosphere is wonderful after dark. As daylight fades, the markets really come alive—Christmas lights, decorated buildings, music and illuminated town squares. It can feel very different from visiting the same cities during summer.
River cruising makes it easy. Instead of checking in and out of hotels and moving luggage between cities, the ship becomes your floating hotel. River ships also dock close to many historic centers, making the experience particularly destination-focused.
There are experiences beyond the markets. Depending on the itinerary, guests can add visits to palaces, wineries, breweries, museums or classical concerts. Viking also incorporates destination lectures and performances onboard.

The food is part of the fun.

Think gingerbread, roasted nuts, sausages, pastries, chocolates and local specialties, along with warming seasonal drinks. Strasbourg, for example, gives travelers a chance to experience Alsatian holiday foods and artisanal producers.

You get beautiful European cities along with the markets. That's an important point for my clients. They're not simply taking a “shopping cruise.” They're experiencing medieval towns, cathedrals, architecture, history and UNESCO sites while Europe is decorated for Christmas.

Christmas in Europe just feels different. 🎄

Picture twinkling lights filling centuries-old town squares. Little wooden market stalls decorated for the holidays. Handmade ornaments and gifts. Seasonal treats. Music in the streets.

And then imagine experiencing several of these beautiful places on one vacation without packing and unpacking every few days.

Welcome to a European Christmas Market river cruise!

What makes the experience special?

Christmas markets are the centerpiece. Guests stroll through decorated town squares filled with wooden stalls selling ornaments, handcrafted gifts and regional foods. The experience changes from city to city—you aren't visiting the same market repeatedly. On Viking's Danube itinerary, for example, guests can experience markets in Regensburg, Passau, Vienna and Budapest.
