Visit a traditional Christmas market

Wondering where to spend your Christmas holidays? Well, some of Europe's most stunning cities truly come alive at Christmas. This is exemplified by some of the ever-popular Christmas markets in Germany and Austria, where the tradition first began. It has since spread to other European cities, making for a great choice when it comes to a Christmas city break

Escape to a winter wonderland

Perfect for kids and grown ups alike, a winter expedition to Lapland, which we all know as the home of Father Christmas, is guaranteed to get you in the festive spirit. See wild reindeer, discover untouched snowy landscapes, ride sledges pulled by huskies and keep an eye out for the Northern Lights. This truly is the creme de la creme when it comes to Christmas holidays this 2010.

Enjoy a Christmas holiday break in the UK

There are actually a large number of Christmas markets in the UK, some of which remain true to their history, exuding a highly festive atmosphere. But you don't necessarily need a Christmas market to make a UK Christmas holiday worthwhile. There are many scenic, hidden gems to be uncovered in the British countryside. On the other hand, you could book a hotel in London and spend a couple of nights in the capital exploring all its Christmas sights, sounds and activities.
