Reporting Live From The River

It’s been an exciting few weeks here at River Cruise Advisor. Last week, the intrepid Ralph Grizzle sailed onboard A-ROSA Silva on one of the line’s Christmas Markets river cruise roundtrip from Frankfurt, Germany.

Not only did he get to experience A-ROSA’s trademark all-inclusive river cruise product, he was also treated to some of the best Christmas Markets in Germany and France. He even managed to get in the odd cycle ashore, courtesy of the line’s complimentary bicycles.

Catch up with Ralph’s journey thus far here:

Along the way, Ralph also had the opportunity to sit down with Marilyn Conroy, vice president of David Morris International, the California-based company that is representing A-ROSA to North American travellers.

While Ralph’s journey concludes on Tuesday, my own begins: a weeklong sailing from Basel, Switzerland to the Dutch city of Amsterdam aboard Viking RiversViking Baldur.

Like Ralph’s journey, we’ll bring you daily updates from Viking Baldur and the Rhine as we sail through some of the most historic cities – and fascinating Christmas Markets – Europe has to offer.

Stay tuned – there’s a lot of river cruising fun to be had.
