About Christmas touring
Tourabout’s catalogue of Christmas Tours are designed specifically for the shortened winter daylight hours, driving distances have been reduced and the pace is more leisurely. There are two to three night stopovers in many places over the Christmas break to take in the festive markets and delightful highlights.
Europe can be a magical experience, imagine spending your Christmas holiday in the Bavarian Alps under the shadow of the romantic Fairytale Castle of 'mad King Ludwig'. Complete the scene with visits to tiny lakeside villages, snow covered forests and time-honoured celebrations in cobbled stoned, medieval town squares. Ski the slopes in the Alpine countries of France, Switzerland, Italy and Austria, or try the emerging Eastern European country resorts of Slovenia, Czech Republic and Romania.
How about experiencing the Northern Lights in an igloo in Finland, or celebrating Christmas at the Arctic Circle with Santa Claus. There are also the famous Christmas markets in Germany and the charming markets of the Baltic States and Slovenia. Celebrate the New Year in Moscow with the Red Square as your backdrop or go to the New Years Ball in Vienna. Or discover the beauty of Canada with its holiday festivities and live musical entertainment on board the Rocky Mountaineer train as you journey through Fraser Valley; the land of a million Christmas trees.
Or you could try a Christmas holiday with a unique difference; Tourabout has a number of festive tours catalogued to remote destinations that provide an interesting experience. Travel through the remote beauty of Mongolia to celebrate the Naadam festival, or visit the peoples of Tuva to experience Christmas time in Siberia. There is something special for every traveller, so to narrow down your options please select a region or country that you would like to visit to obtain a more targeted list.
