NATIONAL Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions has announced the debut holiday sailings for upcoming river vessel Evolve, which will join the line’s fleet in 2027.
Sailing alongside sister ship Connect, the new vessel will operate a collection of Christmas market itineraries in Europe, effectively doubling its offerings in the region.
Guests will celebrate the festive season along the Danube, exploring the Christmas markets of Budapest, Bratislava, Vienna and beyond during the eight-day ‘Christmas Markets on the Danube’.
Highlights include a private orchestral performance in Bratislava, an after-hours tour of Melk Abbey, a private visit to the medieval Burg Clam, and wine tasting in Austria’s Domane Wachau.
Alternatively, travellers can spend both Christmas and New Year’s on the river by joining the 11-day ‘Christmas and New Year’s on the Danube: A Holiday Voyage’, which takes in Budapest, Vienna, and Salzburg or Cesky Krumlov, with festive traditional meals served on board Evolve.
