Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year greetings to all our travellers. While we are experiencing sweltering summer conditions, our destinations of Berlin, Prague and Vienna have had a rather cold and white Christmas.
In Berlin, the Botanical Gardens were transformed into a fantasyland called the 'Christmas Garden' with multiple light shows and illuminated sculptures.

In Prague, Christmas markets, decorations and snow turned the Old Town centre and the Charles Bridge into a magical place.


In Vienna, the Christmas Markets (Christkindlmarkt), illuminated decorations, spectacular light shows and the smell of roasted chestnuts added to the festive celebrations.
