Christmas is almost here! A joyous time for everyone, the quiet soul prefers to sit by the window sill with a glass of wine and curl up with a good book watching the pretty lights and bells jingling from the Church before hanging out with a group of friends, enjoying a gorgeous feast. But for the adventurous, going out on a Christmas vacation is better suited.

Among the places all over the world, Europe is a pretty vibrant option for holiday enthusiasts and people all over the world plan their tours during the Christmas season.

Prague in Czech Republic provides the visitors with an old world charming feel during the Christmas. The entire place erupts into a delicate winter celebration with colours and no one can get tired of all things wonderful they will come across. Take a boat tour if you want to make a day’s outing memorable for you.

Lapland in Finland is the next hot (rather cold!) spot amongst your holiday list. The official home for the Santa, the place is a visitor’s delight with fly fishing or even a husky safari if your pocket permits, of course. A chance to glimpse the northern lights will be the added fun to everything.

Leipzig in Germany comes soon after where you can enjoy a lot of gastronomically satisfying delights that include gingerbreads, pretzels and the place also offers over 200 stalls from where you can buy gifts for your loved ones. Indulge yourself with mulled wine or a special German coffee at its many cafes.

The museums and the other places of interest for the tourists make sure the visitors get a taste of the true Dutch flavour when they are there which is full of history and rich in cultural diversity.
