Your Holiday Programmes:

Celebrate Yuletide this year in the traditional Austrian fashion, singing carols in a quaint historic church, then drinking hot wine toddies around a beautifully decorated Christmas tree.

Austria retains its original atmosphere of Christmas, with snow-topped buildings, crackling log fires, long lazy dinners accompanied by good wines and idle chatter – truly peace on earth. Once again we shall be using many of our favourite resorts in the Austrian Lake District, which are ideally situated to enhance the appeal of our extensive Christmas & New Year Programme.

During this festive season, there will be a variety of sightseeing excursions and evening entertainment included free of charge! Depending upon the tour you select,

You’ll visit such exciting cities as Linz, Mozart’s Salzburg, tour the delightful ‘Sound of Music’ lakes, feed the reindeer in a wildlife park, or maybe as an extra, experience a ride on a cable car or in a horse drawn sleigh.

One of your highlights will be our Christmas morning carol service, where we recapture the atmosphere of Christmas Past in a typical Baroque Church.

Your evenings are also fun-packed, with dances, schuhplattler shows, bowling competitions, folklore and, of course, your New Year’s celebrations.

Your Holiday Itinerary:

You’ll leave your chosen departure point early Tuesday morning for an afternoon channel crossing to the continent. After travelling through France and Germany, you’ll arrive at your Austrian hotel around lunchtime Wednesday.

The next 9 days are yours to enjoy a really traditional Christmas & New Year. Throughout your stay you’ll be accommodated on a breakfast and dinner arrangement.

The following Thursday (New Years Day) you’ll leave Austria for home, arriving at your original joining point around lunchtime the following day.
