Christmas and New Year Tours
There is something about the holiday season that brings cities
to life. Twinkling lights and yuletide cheer add another level of
excitement and splendor to already fascinating destinations. From
the United States to Canada and Europe, Christmas vacations are an
opportunity to soak in the holiday traditions and winter customs of
other destinations all while ringing in the most wonderful time of
the year.
Holiday packages traveling to Europe may include time in
Germany, home to some of the largest and most impressive Christmas
markets in the world. Travel through Bavaria, where the
landscapes and cities seemingly spring from the pages of a
storybook, to explore the Christmas markets in Nuremberg,
Regensburg and the medieval town of Rothenburg ob der Tauber.
Additional holiday getaways in Europe explore destinations like
Scotland, where Christmas getaways take guests through the majestic
Cairngorm Mountains and the Scottish Highlands on world-renowned rail
lines, and Italy
for Christmas on the shores of Lake Como.
Spend Christmas
in Canada and celebrate the holiday season in a true
winter wonderland. Admire the prairies and plains blanketed in
freshly fallen snow, waterfalls frozen in midstream along the
mountainsides and snow-capped mountains from the warmth of your
train car as you travel to favorite winter destinations throughout
Western Canada. Visit Toronto's Christmas Markets and see
Vancouver's Stanley Park twinkle under holiday lights. Enjoy stays
in cozy lodges in Jasper and Banff, bedecked with holiday
décor and surrounded by pristine nature. Revel in winter activities
like dog sledding, canyon ice walks, skiing and snowshoeing. And
connect all of these destinations with a classic overnight train
journey aboard VIA Rail's Canadian.
