I\u2019ve spent years traveling around Europe and helping hundreds of travellers plan their amazing Christmas holiday trips. While there are many cities that put on a great show during Christmas time, Prague still takes the crown of the best Christmas destinations in Europe.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe I\u2019m biased. Go Real Travel<\/a><\/strong> was founded in Prague, and it\u2019s the city I know best. But Christmas is also one of those times when Prague really lives up to the image people have of an old European city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gothic towers rise above illuminated squares, trams rumble through decorated streets, while you can escape the cold in a Czech pub that may have been serving beer for centuries.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the things I like most about Christmas trips in Europe is how easily you can combine several cities and countries<\/strong>, experiencing a variety of holiday traditions along the way. Prague may have one of the best Christmas markets in Europe, but combining it with other Christmas destinations makes it even better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If I had to create one perfect Europe christmas market trip, I already know which cities I would include: Prague, \u010cesk\u00fd Krumlov, and Salzburg<\/a><\/strong>. This combination gives you a bit of everything: the Christmas atmosphere in Prague, snowy, cosy Salzburg, and the unmatched local charm of \u010cesky Krumlov.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This trio might be our favorite, but here are all the best Christmas destinations in Europe, what makes them so special, and how to combine them in one perfect Christmas vacation for your family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
