Which direction to travel in winter?

Beach vacation

If you are tired of daily frosts and want to feel the warmth of the sun again, then go to the UAE, Israel, India, or the Canary Islands. You can also have a great rest on Hainan Island, where various excursions are constantly held.

The most popular winter tours are still tours to Egypt and Thailand. In Thailand, the islands in the Gulf of Thailand are ideal for beach holidays. In December, the temperature is perfect for swimming, and rain avoids these islands.

In India, winter is the dry season. Therefore, India can provide you with the best conditions for relaxation. You can easily combine beach holidays with a rich excursion program.

The cheapest, but not the worst option for you would be a vacation in Vietnam. The coast of Vietnam is rich in sandy beaches. However, for winter holidays, it is better to choose resorts in the south of the country. If you watch a video about Vietnam before your trip, you will understand that you have chosen the right direction! Despite the fact that Vietnam has long been spoiled by the attention of our tourists, a vacation in this country is still considered exotic. Therefore, do not forget to take a video camera with you on your trip, so that after returning you can share the video of your exciting journey with friends.

Holiday for active sports lovers

If you do not like to bask in the sun or swim in the warm sea, then ski resorts are an excellent option for a winter holiday. Starting from the first half of December, the most popular are ski resorts in Austria, Spain, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, and Norway. But at the same time, do not forget about the resorts located in Russia: Sheregesh, Krasnaya Sopka, Zolotaya Dolina, Zlatoust, and many others.

Popular winter tours for passive recreation

If you do not know how to ski or snowboard, do not be upset. You can simply go to a 'fairy tale' during the New Year holidays, combining shopping with sightseeing tours.

In the pre-New Year period, the most interesting are tours to Germany, Great Britain, the Czech Republic, and Austria. In these countries, huge sales and fairs are held, which are always accompanied by fun Christmas programs. In England, an international Christmas music festival is held at this time. Therefore, music lovers from all over the world gather here in December.

If you are very interested in the history and culture of the Vikings, then a trip to Norway will suit your taste.

It is also recommended to visit Lapland. It is in Santa Claus's homeland that the brightest and most massive Christmas celebrations take place.
