Discover Europe's festive Christmas markets, historic castles, seasonal charm, and more with Insight Vacations.
There is something undeniably magical about Europe in the winter – snow-dusted castles that appear straight off a page in a fairytale, and cobblestone streets that glow softly beneath glittering Christmas lights. The air is scented with the spice of Glühwein and roasted chestnuts, and the sound of carols drifts from bustling market squares. It is Europe at its most enchanting.

Business Class Touring: The Art of Effortless Luxury
Insight Vacations elevates guided touring with smaller groups, coaches that offer Business Class legroom, and prestigious hotels in the heart of each city. Mornings begin at a slower pace, affording you time to savour breakfast before setting out for the day.
Dining is an event in itself – farm-to-table feasts in centuries-old taverns, cosy dinners at family-run restaurants, and intimate wine tastings in private cellars. In Innsbruck, travellers can indulge in hearty local fare, while in Prague, savour a steaming mug of Svařák, a traditional mulled wine, along with a fresh, sweet Trdelník pastry.
Each of their tours also includes Make Travel Matter® experiences, which ensures that your journey leaves a positive impact – whether through supporting local artisans so their heritage/culture remains relevant or sustainable tourism initiatives.

The Ultimate Peace of Mind
From the start of your journey, Insight Vacations’ Travel Directors and local specialists are on hand to guide the experience, ensuring smooth travel arrangements and enriching each destination with their cultural expertise. While guests enjoy the freedom to explore during their leisure time, experts behind the scenes remain a knowledgeable resource, ready to share recommendations or helpful local context when asked.
The best part? Insight Vacations understands that it is impossible for everyone in a group to have the same interests and herein planned the itinerary so that travellers will have sufficient time for their own pursuits. To seal the deal on thoughtfulness, each Insight Vacations tour includes additional experiences that have been curated by their travel experts to deepen the travel experience. Think a gala Viennese concert followed by dinner or a trip to the 700-year-old UNESCO World Heritage listed salt mine. These are local activities designed to take your trip to the next level.

Select from 8 to 13-day journeys that will take you through the festive capitals and charming towns of Germany, Austria, Poland and beyond.
Some of the itinerary highlights include:
- Salzburg’s 500-year-old Christmas Market with the Dom, a 17-century Baroque cathedral and the Residenz Palace as a backdrop. Visitors will be surrounded by singing choirs and chiming church bells as they explore the merchants hawking gingerbread hearts, knitted sweaters, and of course, Glühwein. Learn more about touring the Christmas Markets of Austria and Bavaria.
- Go on a horse-drawn carriage ride through the picturesque city of Innsbruck, framed by the snowcapped mountains and valleys of Tyrol. A postcard perfect shot if there ever was one when you book the Alpine Christmas Markets.
- Find out what goes into and have a taste of the forgotten varieties of gingerbread from the Lower Silesia region of Poland when you explore the Christmas Markets of Poland, Prague and Germany tour. These delicious treats are made exclusively with locally sourced ingredients, most of which are from nearby farms.
