Christmas is on its way, which means you need to plan and book soon if you want to take a vacation. The season too often becomes more of a hectic scramble to give without focusing on the true meaning of connection with family and loved ones.
This year, disconnect from the hectic Christmas society created and delve into some quality family time instead. Here are some ideas for Christmas vacation destinations for families so that you can plan a trip that will really get you in the holiday spirit.
Woodstock, Vermont
The perfect American small town for a family Christmas vacation, Woodstock is an absolute gem to visit all year. When you visit in the winter, however, you’ll surely get in the holiday spirit right away.
The beautiful lights, the different holiday festivals—the Woodstock Wassail Weekend is one of the most elaborate winter celebrations in Vermont—and elegant private homes will give you memorable family vacation.
Copenhagen, Denmark
Choose to stay in the city or a more remote cabin and enjoy the charming nature of Denmark at Christmastime.
It’s one of the best family vacation spots in Europe, as it offers themed entertainment around every corner plus plenty of relaxing and rejuvenating ways to spend your trip. Wander the Tivoli Gardens, and come home to decorate some Christmas cookies.
