The River Cruise Line  is offering agents a chance to win a Christmas hamper, by booking any of its 2015 Christmas markets or Christmas and New Year cruises, throughout August.

During the same period, agents will be able to offer their clients free excursions packages on their bookings – including city tours, visits to historic sites and wine tasting evenings.

The incentive applies to bookings on the whole range of festive itineraries, aboard the four star ms Serenity and the three star mps Lady Anne, both chartered exclusively by The River Cruise Line.

There is no limit to the number of entries per agent, as each booking confirmed between August 1 and 31 will be entered into the prize draw.

To enter, email confirmed booking reference numbers and contact details to [email protected] . Entries will close at midnight on August 31 and the winner will be drawn in early September.

The River Cruise Line’s festive programme features the four day ‘German Christmas Markets’ itinerary aboard the mps Lady Anne, which departs on dates in early December, priced from £269 per person; or the four day ‘Strasbourg Christmas Market’ itinerary aboard the ms Serenity, which is priced from £399 per person, departing on December 8, 11 and 14.

For those clients keen to sample Christmas with a European flavour, or see in 2016 in one of the most beautiful historic cities on the continent, The River Cruise Line can offer breaks over both Christmas and New Year. For example the seven day Christmas Rhine Cruise departs on 23rd December travelling aboard the mps Lady Anne and is priced from £699 per person, including a German Christmas Eve dinner and British Christmas Day. Alternatively, four star options are available aboard ms Serenity for Christmas or New Year cruises along the Danube, including visits to Vienna, Budapest and Bratislava. The nine day New Year cruise along the Danube is priced from £999 per person and includes New Year’s Eve celebrations in Budapest.
