WINTER GETAWAY CONSIDERATIONS

WINTER GETAWAY CONSIDERATIONS

Planning a trip away from the USA and to Europe over the winter? We can find magic, fewer crowds & winter activities all around.

What is the Purpose of Your Trip

  • Festive : Whether you're taking advantage of holiday markets or a festival like Carnivale, make sure you know what's going on in the spot you're visiting
  • Winter Wonderland : You can find magic in winter spots like the Alps in cozy villages
  • Mild Weather : Major cities can offer the same year round musuems, but without the same levels of crowds that we see in other months

Off Season Perks

  • Less Crowds : Shorter lines, easier to get a reservation and ticket - and feel more like a "local"
  • More Supply : Less Demans / More Supply can mean our Euro is able to go a bit further in some spots

Travel Logistics

  • Flights : Keep an eye through Google Explore options for the best flight routes and prices
  • Transportation : Add in "buffer time" as there can be delays with winter weather of trains and flight schedules
  • Travel Insurance : While this is ALWAYS suggested; weather delays can make this even more valuable to have

Accomodation

  • Cozy : Look for options that have fireplaces and spas; so you can enjoy the intimate part of the winter

Winter Activities

  • Ski & Snowboarding : Resorts offer this (including lessons) if you want to get out
  • Northern Lights : One of the most popular things to see these days, while never guarenteed; we definitely have a better shot this time of year
  • City Strolls : Embrace the winter, hold hands, drink a hot coffee and indulge.

Do you love the idea of bundling up in a city? Or would you rather wait and go when the weather is a bit warmer and we can leave our coat at home?
