We’re not too far off from winter holiday time, which means it’s time to book your next vacation. You can get great deals on European getaways during this time of year because many people prefer to book holiday times during the summer and they like spending the holiday times at home with family.
Have you booked time off work, but you’re still trying to figure out where to go? This guide will give you some great ideas for your next vacation.
Zermatt, Switzerland
This city is picturesque and a winter wonderland during the colder months. Cross the Matterhorn mountain off your bucket list and take some photos for your Instagram while you climb it. You can also walk through glaciers or go skiing while in Zermatt.
Be prepared because Zermatt is a car-free city, but don’t worry, this won’t inconvenience you, you can take a train into the city.
London, England
Visiting London around Christmas time can’t be beaten. We love the bright, festive lights, the displays in the shop windows, and the markets. The Christmas markets are your one-stop place for gifts, street food, and warm seasonal beverages. You can even go ice skating while you’re there!
Lapland, Finland
You can visit the Northern lights, see actual reindeer farms, and meet Santa while in Lapland, Finland. If you’re into adventure try ice floating or you can go husky riding; maybe reindeer sleigh riding is more your thing – they both sound so fun to us!
