Hamburg Christmas Markets & Honfleur S2723

Friday 17th December 2027 - Wednesday 22nd December 2027

6 Days

From £1,059

Festive flavours and Christmas market charm await on this short getaway to France and Germany. After a relaxed call to Honfleur, where colourful half-timbered buildings frame the harbour and regional specialities range from Calvados to Camembert, you’ll continue to Hamburg. Renowned for its atmospheric Christmas markets, you’ll have a full day to browse traditional wooden huts, strung with twinkling lights and filled with handcrafted gifts, and sample treats such as bratwurst, roasted chestnuts and lebkuchen, perhaps with a warming glühwein. Away from the stalls, there’s the chance to join a harbour cruise on the River Elbe for a different view of the city. Back on board, the seasonal feeling continues with decorations, entertainment and cosy days at sea.

YOUR SHIP

BOREALIS

Bearing a name that inspires thoughts of the Aurora Borealis, the elegant Borealis proudly connects with Fred Olsen’s Norwegian heritage. Stylish, spacious and comfortable, with capacity for fewer than 1,400 guests, she is in keeping with their commitment in offering a more traditional style of cruising. But while Borealis’ capacity is smaller than many cruise vessels, she is still one of the largest ships in the Fred Olsen fleet. On board you will find you are never overcrowded. There is always ample room in which to indulge yourself in the stylish dining venues, enjoy a glass of your favourite tipple and fantastic entertainment at the bars, lounges and theatres, and while away the hours by the all-season pool.
