Christmas Markets of Germany and Austria

hohenschwangau_snowIf you’re looking to get into the holiday spirit, follow David on Facebook next week as he heads back to Europe for nine days filled with holiday cheer. Keep an eye out for live videos of Christmas markets and festive revelry!

Christmas Markets pop up all over Central Europe during the first weeks of December. These outdoor markets feature unique decorations, beautiful handcrafted arts, and endless opportunities to sample some great food and countless varieties of glüwein, punch, and spiced drinks, served piping hot in souvenir mugs.

But there is more to this tour than snow and markets!  Enjoy visiting many destinations that, in the busy tourist season, are packed shoulder-to-shoulder with sweaty tourists.  Traveling “off-season” means easy access to castles and sights in Salzburg, Schwangau, Rothenburg, Munich, Nürnberg, and more.  There has never been a better time to visit Europe’s winter wonderland destinations.

All David’s tours are designed for strictly small groups. This means that we can travel off the beaten path and under the big bus tour radar and experience Europe on a unique and personal level. Eating well is also a priority, and you’ll get your fair share of fine food sourced locally by excellent chefs. I’ve spent years poking around Europe’s nooks and crannies looking for unique restaurants, clean hotels with character and cozy B&Bs. Our tours include all tips and gratuities to drivers, local guides, and your tour leader. Finally, we’ll never nickel and dime you with extras and add-ons. The advertised price is the price you pay.
