Make this holiday season extra special and welcome 2010 in grand styleLet this holiday season be an unforgettable one. Celebrate Christmas in Regensburg, one of the loveliest medieval towns in Europe, where you will have time to attend Christmas Mass in one of Regensburg's magnificent churches, followed by a grand celebration onboard. Learn how the tradition of glassblowing has remained basically unchanged since the glassblower's pipe was invented some 2,000 years ago, and take a horse-drawn sleigh ride through the hills of the Bavarian Forest.
We have arranged for an exclusive cocktail reception at Artstetten Castle with Princess Anita von Hohenberg, a descendant of the royal Habsburgs. You'll also welcome the New Year in style in the magnificent Viennese Palais Pallavicini, which traditionally hosts official Austrian receptions for monarchs and heads of state! While here, you'll be treated to a festive dinner, along with a private concert, where you can even waltz to the famous tunes of Strauss and Mozart-all in the stylish and elegant ambience of this historic salon.
Who will enjoy this cruise: Those looking for an extra-special way to celebrate the New Year will be thrilled to meet Habsburg royalty and attend our exclusive gala party held in an exquisite Viennese palace.
