A Keller Christmas Vacation
Pack your passport and a little family patience because A Keller Christmas Vacation is setting sail! This new Hallmark Channel movie stars Jonathan Bennett, Brandon Routh, and Eloise Mumford as the grown Keller kids reluctantly joining their parents on a 10-day Christmas river cruise down the Danube. From Germany to Vienna, expect twinkling markets, scenic stops, and plenty of sibling squabbles as the Kellers rediscover what really matters. It’s a festive journey filled with laughter, love, and one family secret that just might bring everyone home for the holidays.
A Keller Christmas Vacation will premiere on Sunday, November 9th, on Hallmark Channel as part of Countdown to Christmas (and is available to stream the following day on Hallmark+.)
