Eric’s Tip: “This cruise is very relaxed and cosy, perfect if you want to enjoy the Christmas atmosphere in peace. If you choose a timeslot after 18:00, it will be dark while sailing. You will see the beautifully illuminated skyline! If you would like to cruise at Christmas itself, I can recommend a Christmas Eve Dinner Cruise.”
