2 yrs ago my husband and I were on river cruise on the Danube for the Christmas markets - not ABD we were on Avalon
For the weather - layers are best and at the last minute I packed snow boots - a good decision not only for warmth but we had rain and snow on the trip. The Christmas markets were so much fun - Vienna was one of the next.
Thank you.This video might be helpful to you:.
They are branded as ABD river cruises. The actual cruise ships are AmaWaterways ships that ABD leases for the whole cruise. Beautiful ships and amazing crews. ABD provides all the excursions as well as some onboard activities, and the Adventure Guides (up to 8) will also frequently act as the cruise director. Everyone on those cruises is taking the ABD. It's not an add-on like with DCL.Following along! We've done a Rhine cruise (not ABD, Viking) and are seriously considering a Christmas Market one. I didn't realize ABD did river cruises....are they branded as such or are they under a different cruise line name?
We bought my parents, as their 30th wedding anniversary, onto the 2019 Danube Christmas Market ABD. They loved it. They recommend extra days at both ends as both cities were amazing.
