    Tour Details
    • TrafalgarOperatorWritten December 2025

      While Christmas markets are not officially included in the Trafalgar Traditional Europe itinerary, you will still have the opportunity to experience them during your free time. Since the tour visits major cities such as Vienna, Munich, Lucerne, and Paris, you'll find festive markets in central squares filled with holiday lights, local crafts, and seasonal treats. These markets typically run throughout December, so you can enjoy the atmosphere, shop for souvenirs, and taste traditional specialties like mulled wine and gingerbread. It's a wonderful way to add a festive touch to your journey alongside the sightseeing highlights.
