During the journey you will have the opportunity to see one of the world’s largest cuckoo clocks and take a tour of a cuckoo clock making workshop.

Later this afternoon we visit the Dorotheenhütte in Wolfach, and have time to spend in the glassblowing workshops, which are characteristic of the area, as well as perusing the 35 lovingly decorated huts and market stands of its magical Christmas Village.We dine together on board our floating home tonight, and enjoy an evening of entertainment as we sail towards Strasbourg.
