If you fancy doing something a little different at this time of year take a look at our Alternative to Christmas holiday guide:
Northern Winter Tracks
Think of the stereotypical winter image. Likely there’ll be snow, a glowing fire place, a hot drink and fairy-tale castles. Perhaps there’ll also be an ice rink, skiing, and big bustling markets. Are we right? Well if that’s your winter stereotype, then this is your chance to live it. Visit the biggest and best winter cities in Europe. Avoid queues and peak season prices. You can jump into outdoor thermal baths in Budapest, drink in the grand beerhalls of Munich and ski in the Austrian Alps. It won’t take you long to realise that stereotypes are sometimes the best.

Eastern Festive Trek (Prague to Krakow)
We put this trek together to bring friends and travelling orphans together over the festive period. You will eat and drink well on this trip! Start your Eastern Europe festive experience in stunning Prague, spend Christmas in sumptuous Vienna and go clubbing in uber-cool Krakow on New Year’s Eve. Our original Festive trek was so popular; this is the itinerary in reverse but just as brilliant an experience. Both treks meet in Budapest on Boxing Day for the party to end all parties!
