    Hello- we're on this cruise.  Haqdeluxe is probably correct in that markets won't be open after the 24th. 

     

    Are you able to fly in a few days early?  We're going to stay in The Hague for a few days pre-cruise, they are supposed to have a nice market.  The Hague is just a 30 minute train ride from Schipol airport, the train station is in the airport.

     

    I'm wondering what Viking will do on Christmas day.  We're in Arnhem, which has tons to do: zoo, open air museum, Operation Market Garden museum...all great places we've visited and I would like to see again.  Pretty sure they'll all be closed. 

    Thank you for your response.  Although we've taken about 40-45 cruises, this will be our first 'river cruise'.  Even though most of the markets will be closed during our cruise, we think we'll still be able to enjoy the holiday decorations and the experience in general.  I'm not sure if we'll fly in early or not...if we do, we'll probably stay in the Amsterdam 'historic district'.  With only 190 passengers, I'm sure we'll meet on board.  (We are two senior citizens from Montana who enjoy visiting new places, meeting new people and making the best of whatever surrounds us.)

  2. Has anyone taken a Viking river cruise on the Rhine from Amsterdam to Basel?  The ship departs Amsterdam on December 23, 2023 and arrives in Basel on January 1, 2024.  Do any of you know if the Christmas Markets will still be going on during those dates?  We want to reserve our Christmas river cruise soon so I'd appreciate any speedy responses.

     

    Thank you...hope you're all enjoying a nice summer

    The response was facetious. The post was being literal and was commenting that live theater in Manhattan's BROADWAY have been closed since the start of the Pandemic. 

    To answer your question no one really knows but generally on-board shows should still be going on maybe with social distancing. When the new cruises sail from Bermuda and Nassau follow those cruises and you will get an idea of what to expect.

    Thank you for clearing up my 'mis-speak'.

    Alas, Broadway shows have been cancelled since March 2020.  

    Darn.  I think I'll keep my fingers crossed in hopes they will be reinstated for September's cruises.  If not, I'm sure by our July 2022 family cruise (which has been postponed twice) we'll be able to see one again...so enjoyable.  Thanks for your prompt response.  Take care
