Three extraordinary cities. One unforgettable Christmas journey. Discover Budapest, Vienna, and Prague through a personalised festive experience designed entirely around you.
When the first lights go up, the old capitals of Central Europe become something close to a storybook.
Squares fill with wooden stalls and the scent of cinnamon and mulled wine, historic façades glow, and cafés turn into the warmest rooms in the city. The Christmas Collection is our way of bringing all of this together for international visitors as an individually designed Christmas holiday.
You tell us how much time you have, what you would like to spend and what you love. We design the journey around it.
The Danube reflects a city dressed in light. Festive markets fill the squares of the centre, St. Stephen’s Basilica glows above the stalls, and thermal baths steam in the cold air. Budapest is an atmospheric beginning, or a complete Christmas escape on its own.
Vienna celebrates the season with imperial grace. Traditional markets gather in front of palaces and the City Hall, chandeliers of light hang above the elegant shopping streets, and the coffee houses offer the perfect pause between a concert and an evening stroll.
Gothic towers above a glowing square, a great Christmas tree at its heart and lanes that seem made for winter evenings. Prague’s historic centre is one of Europe’s most romantic settings for the festive season.
Your journey can bring together as many, or as few, of these as you wish. The balance is yours to decide.
Every Christmas itinerary is designed around your available time, budget, interests and preferences. These are starting points for the conversation.
A festive long weekend in one city: markets, lights, winter cafés and time to wander.
The three capitals in one journey, with the highlights of each city’s Christmas season.
A full week with room to breathe: more time in each city, and more of what you enjoy most.
An unhurried festive journey with additional destinations along the way.
These are examples of possible itineraries. They are not fixed packages or confirmed offers. Your own journey is created only after a personal consultation.
The main Christmas markets usually open in mid or late November and run until around Christmas, some into early January. Exact dates change every year, so we confirm them when planning your journey.
The Christmas Collection features Budapest, Vienna and Prague: three capitals known for their festive markets, illuminated streets, concerts and seasonal traditions.
Yes. The three cities are well connected by train, so a festive journey can combine two or all three. We plan the route, the timing and the time spent in each city.
As early as possible, ideally by early autumn. December is the busiest season in all three cities, and early planning leaves more choice of hotels and experiences.
Tell us when you would like to travel, who is coming with you and what the season means to you. We will create a festive journey that feels entirely yours.
