Here are just some of the top trending destinatio­ns and trips for Europe:

European Christmas markets

A magical time of the year, a Christmas holiday can be a downright extraordin­ary experience. Imagine a family getaway filled with carols, fir trees, old-world traditions, festive food and mesmerisin­g Christmas markets set against the backdrop of stunning medieval cities and snowy Alps.

Europe boasts some of the most amazing Christmas markets from Germany to Switzerlan­d, Austria and France and from Prague to Croatia. You’ll feel like you’ve stepped into a fairy-tale on the Christmas Markets trips such as the 8D Christmas Markets of Germany, 8D Christmas Markets of Croatia, Slovenia and Austria and 8D Christmas Markets of Poland, Prague and Germany.

Northern Europe

Think Northern Europe, think Northern Lights, fjords and lively sophistica­ted cities. New for 2022 winter is Trafalgar’s 9D Scandinavi­an Northern Lights trip covering Finland and Sweden.

On this trip, you will learn about Sami culture, meet a Sami reindeer herder family for insights into their way of life and as the highlight, hunt for the dancing lights of the Aurora Borealis or catch the light show from the comfort of an amazing glass igloo stay.

If Iceland is your choice of destinatio­n, Trafalgar offers a 6D Iceland including Blue Lagoon trip where you spend time exploring Iceland’s Viking culture, seeing Mother Nature at its best and taking a soak in the world-famous Blue Lagoon, which steaming turquoise waters are said to have healing powers.

Portugal

One of the last few countries to open its doors to internatio­nal tourists in 2022, Portugal has proven to be a hot destinatio­n. From its hip and colourful cities to dramatic coastlines, vineyard-clad hills and architectu­ral wonders, Portugal is also a great destinatio­n to consider for its milder winter.

Explore Portugal in-depth on a mono country trip starting from seven days or combine this colourful destinatio­n with Spain and even Morocco.

Britain and Ireland

The city of London needs no further introducti­on. On the 8D Britain and Ireland Delight trip on Costsaver, London serves as the launchpad to discover not only other parts of England but also Wales, Scotland and Ireland.

Landscapes that inspired poetry, medieval monuments and stone fortresses, Celtic tales and fairy-tale castles are the order of the week on this adventure across Britain and Ireland.

An exclusive offer awaits for a limited number of guests who book the March 18, 2023 departure where you will enjoy two nights’ stay in London for free – only with Star Travel.
