A fabulous, festive Christmas experience
Amazing Christmas Markets, frozen waterfalls and a classic Christmas location
From Imperial Vienna and the stunning Schönbrunn Palace, to Lake Bled in Slovenia, enjoy exciting activities such as horse and carriage rides, a trip on a historic boat to a church in the middle of a lake, ride high in a cable car, deep into mountainous caverns on a train, and take in the stunning views across Corinthian Lakes from the top of Europe’s highest wooden tower. Visit lovely castles, picturesque Rovinj on the Istrian Peninsula and explore Plitvice’s frozen cascades and leaping waterfalls. Discover some of Europe’s finest Christmas Markets in UNESCO listed Graz, lovely Ljubljana, classic Zagreb and Trieste in Italy. Stay 3 nights over Christmas in a 5-star hotel in the heart of Opatija’s ‘Belle Époque’ parks, promenade gardens all gorgeously illuminated with Christmas decorations, displays and brightly lit trees. To cap it all off, savour the leisurely champagne Christmas breakfasts that will make your Christmas dreams become memories to last a lifetime.
