Xmas short breaks - Magical atmosphere
Xmas city breaks are an uplifting way to celebrate the festive season. Short Xmas breaks capture many city destinations at their most atmospheric, with picturesque seasonal markets, cheering decorations and plenty of Christmas cultural events. Xmas city breaks are high on charm and romance. Christmas weather in Paris, Venice, Bruges and Lisbon is clearly wintry but Xmas short breaks will find these unforgettable cities particularly evocative. Many city break aficionados agree that Xmas weekend breaks in Moscow and St Petersburg capture these great Russian cities at their most memorable. Bracing wintry days in Berlin, Amsterdam and Dublin heighten the charm of cosy old-fashioned cafes and bars and invitingly warm restaurants. The snowy Manhattan skyline, the famous stores, the Christmas lights and a cheery seasonal atmosphere make Xmas city breaks in New York especially magical.
Xmas city breaks - White Christmas romance
Many Xmas city break destinations are at their most romantic in the snow. Crisp weather and fairy-tale snowy streets make Xmas short break destinations like Vienna and Moscow particularly romantic and evocative. Admiring the snow-capped Gothic splendours of Prague or Budapest from a quaint square with a warming mulled wine makes for an unforgettable experience! Bring a good thick coat and soak up the atmosphere! Xmas city breaks are an excellent time to see the art treasures of Venice, the stunning churches of Rome or the outstanding galleries of Barcelona. The magical atmosphere of cities like Prague and New York make Xmas short breaks very attractive for children too.
Xmas short breaks - Christmas sunshine
For milder weather spend a Xmas short break in Southern European destinations like Malaga, Palermo and Naples. Christmas temperatures in Cannes, Rome or Monte Carlo may well be an improvement on late-December London, Glasgow and Manchester! Try a Xmas weekend break in Madrid if you are looking for crisp winter sunshine. For a complete break from a traditional British Christmas fly to amazing Las Vegas or the charming streets of Seville lined with fragrant orange trees. Or escape the excesses of Christmas all together with an unusual Xmas short break in exotic Istanbul, Dubai or Marrakech!
