Dear Mr. Emerton, thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We are glad to read you enjoyed the ship. For this Christmas cruise you chose, only the visit of Strasbourg's Christmas market is planned. If you'd like to visit more Christmas markets this year, we have the Christmas cruise reference BMD_PP. During this 7 days and 6 nights trip, you'd be able to visit the Christmas markets of Berlin, Magdeburg and Meissen. We hope we'll have the pleasure to welcome you again on board one of our ships. Best regards, CroisiEurope Customer Care Department
