Christmas Tours in Europe Will Get You in the Holiday Spirit

Christmas tours in Europe are a sure way to rekindle your holiday spirit.

Discover the origins of many of our Christmas celebrations in the centuries-old Christmas markets (or Christkindlmarkt), generally open from November to the New Year.

European Christmas market tours are plentiful and many visit the markets daily; some travel from city to city, while others allow you to stay in one place and take day-trips to other towns. All are focused on enjoying the sights, sounds, and delicious smells of the European Christmas markets!

Globus Tours has Christmastime Tours that visit the Christmas markets in Germany, Austria, or Eastern Europe. You'll visit Bavaria, Alsace, Munich, or Prague. Each of these tours visits at least 3 cities, spending 2 days in each town.

Each of the towns has it's own Christmas Market, so you get a taste of several local specialties. They also include tours of churches and cathedrals, Christmas concerts, and much more. Travel between cities is by tour bus.

Collette Vacations has an Alpine Christmas Tour that allows you to get settled in your hotel in Innsbruck, and take day trips to markets in Munich and Salzburg for shopping.
