Sea the WORLD
THIS MONTH’S ROUND-UP OF THE BEST HOLIDAYS AFLOAT BY TRAVEL EDITOR
A BUYER’S MARKET
With Germany being the festive hub of traditional Christmas markets, one of the best ways to scoop up several in one trip is on a November/december cruise along the Danube. Amawaterways has sailings visiting markets in Nuremberg, Regensburg and Passau as well as Vienna, so there’s plenty of scope for indulging in gingerbread, gluhwein, beer and bratwurst. Sailing from Vienna to Nuremberg costs from £2,045pp, including drinks with meals, excursions and wi-fi, or from £2,290pp with flights and transfers. Visit amawaterways.co.uk.
NO-FLY ZONE
The number of flight-free cruise destinations is increasing. From the UK coast to historic cities on the Baltic, Norway’s fjord coast, the Med, Iceland, the eastern seaboard of Canada and the US and the Caribbean, the whole world is your oyster.
