Spend Christmas in Iceland and discover a city of festivity and magic. Reykjavik is aglow during the festive season with the city literally covered in lights - everywhere glows with warmth and a magical atmosphere envelops the city. Enjoy Icelandic traditions and the fine dining for which the city is known. Our special Christmas and New Year holidays include some guided activities and a Discover the World representative will be available to look after you throughout your trip. You can enjoy fine dining and add in a number of excursions. You may even have the opportunity to witness the northern lights, nature's very own fireworks on New Year's Eve.

There is nowhere in the world more synonymous with Christmas than Lapland - the snow-covered forests and pristine open spaces sparkling in the sunshine providing scenes straight from a Christmas card. We offer the totally unique ICEHOTEL in Swedish Lapland with a range of accommodation including glorious themed Art Suites that will literally take your breath away, and where better to bring in the new year than the Absolut ICEBAR.  And in Finnish Lapland, enjoy an authentic log cabin experience at Kakslauttanen - ice rooms and glass igloos also feature. 

If you want to celebrate Christmas away from home or if you simply wish to treat the day as any other, many of our most popular holidays can depart over the Christmas period ensuring you a festive season you will never forget. From fly drive holidays in New Zealand to Antarctic cruises, escorted coach tours to city breaks you can choose a Christmas holiday that is right for you.
