A few weeks before Christmas, entire towns are transformed and decked out in dazzling lights. The air is filled with the aroma of spices, Christmas carols echo through the streets, and the lights sparkle with a thousand lights: it's Christmas market season in Alsace and many other European cities and capitals!
Alsace, with its picturesque villages and half-timbered houses, is the birthplace of Christmas markets. Every year for the past 453 years, towns such as Strasbourg, Colmar and Mulhouse are transformed into winter wonderlands. It's the perfect time to discover the region and its handcrafted products, unique decorations and culinary specialties such as pretzels, mulled wine and gingerbread.
This year, we are delighted to offer you the possibility

In addition to Alsace, Europe's capital cities rival each other for originality when it comes to Christmas markets. Vienna, Budapest, Prague and many others are decked out in their finest decorations to create a magical, unique atmosphere.
To help you experience the magic of this festive season, we offer a number of Christmas market-themed itineraries throughout France and Europe, where each stop will allow you to immerse yourself in the local culture, savour the culinary delights of the season and leave with unique souvenirs.
This year, we're offering a brand-new itinerary through the heart of the Christmas markets, from Berlin to Prague, to experience the enchantment of Christmas on board a paddlewheel steamer - a CroisiEurope exclusive! Traditions, authenticity and enchantment will be on the programme of these two new itineraries at the heart of the magic and atmosphere of Christmas in fairytale towns.

World Tourism Day was celebrated on September 27, this year on the theme of "Tourism for Green Investment".
On this occasion, we'd like you to take this opportunity to rediscover our many commitments and innovations to respect the environment, which have been an integral part of our culture for many years, both on board our boats and within our company.
What is green investment?
Also known as sustainable investment or ethical investment, it refers to reconciling the tourism market with environmental preservation by offering financial resources to human, ecological and innovative projects that make a positive contribution to nature and minimize negative impacts on the planet. The aim is to help companies grow while reducing their ecological footprint and supporting socially responsible business practices.
We are aware that nature is CroisiEurope's best ally, our commitment to the environment is a genuine corporate culture anchored in a set of concrete actions, enabling us to navigate the world's waters while minimizing our impact on the environment and promoting responsible practices. [...]
As autumn makes its timid arrival, you may already be dreaming of escaping the winter temperatures that are slowly settling. That's why we're delighted to present you with a unique opportunity to relax and travel in the winter sunshine.
