Winter in Europe is a magical time, filled with Christmas markets, snow topped mountains, glaciers, and Glühwein. But winter holidays do require a little more thought when it comes to packing than summer holidays. T shirts and swimsuits are easy, but considering the temperatures and the equipment you might need to make the most of a winter holiday is a bit more in depth. To get the right ratio between having everything you need and packing light for travelling can be tricky, but never fear, here’s our handy guide to packing the essentials for a winter holiday in Europe.

Cruising Europe during the wintertime is a vastly different experience to cruising in summer, and for anyone who normally takes a cruise in summertime, there are some big differences to be aware of. It’s a magical time of year that brings with it some unique experiences. Yes, it’s cold, and, yes, your packing list is going to be longer than the shorts and swimmers of your summer trips, but there’s a very singular beauty to Europe in winter that can’t be matched by any other time of year.

With a landscape as visually stunning as the Swiss Alps, all you need to do is sit back and enjoy it. And the Swiss train system ensures you can do that in style.

Renowned for its majestic Alps and stunning landscapes, Switzerland offers an unparalleled experience for winter sightseeing. One of the best ways to explore the beauty of this alpine wonderland is by hopping aboard the country's scenic train routes. Chugging past enchanting villages set against snow-capped mountains and frozen lakes, Switzerland by rail in winter is nothing short of breath-taking.

There’s nothing more Christmassy than snowy mountains, frosted fir trees, and twinkling fairy lights, and in the Swiss Alps all of this comes with some very festive traditions. Some of these Christmas customs are similar to those enjoyed in the rest of Europe, while others are a little more unusual. We take a closer look at the culture of Christmas in the Swiss Alps.

Champagne amid snowy scenery, travelling through frosty landscapes, and having your Christmas lunch served to you in luxury, there’s no Christmas and New Year quite like the one you’ll experience when on a festive trip. But some places do the celebrations better than others and some destinations just seem to embody the season. Here’s our pick of where to spend Christmas and New Year.

When the days get shorter and the cold nights close in, there’s no better way to beat the winter blues than by planning your perfect holiday getaway.

Seeing the Northern Lights is a real bucket list event, and it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience that you want to remember. Memories are great, but there’s nothing like a few clear photos to look back on and share with friends and family.
