Rick Braun's River Cruise at Christmas - December 2024

Join us for a cruise that combines your favorite music with wine and the wonders of the Christmas Markets of Europe!  From romantic cities to foodie havens and artistic epicenters, this up close and personal small ship experience, along with the unique musical  experience never seen at any concert or festival. 

We will cruise between Nuremberg and Budapest leaving on Monday, December 9, 2024 for seven glorious days.
