The preparation for a vacation is almost as
exhilarating as the vacation itself. I love printing out the tickets and
confirmations while thinking about how much fun I will have on vacation. I
enjoy researching all the sights at the location I will see once I arrive at my
destination. When you want to plan a

Ideas for a Christmas Vacation in
France
Spending Christmas in France looks like a great idea, no
matter if you are planning a romantic getaway or a family vacation. Nicely
decorated cities, scenic locations, great wine, delicious cuisine, exciting
opportunities for outdoor activities, well preserved traditions, charming
Christmas markets and lots of things to do are waiting for you. Here are a few
ideas of Christmas vacations in France.
Christmas
in Avignon
Provencal traditions say that Christmas holiday season
lasts 40 days. Therefore, you have more than a month to enjoy the festive mood
that seizes the whole religion, to stroll through beautiful Christmas markets,
hunting for souvenirs, to taste at least some of the 13 traditional Christmas
deserts, and to drink some mulled French wine. If you are traveling with kids,
they will certainly love the Christmas parades, the folk art workshops and the
traditional dances.
Christmas
in Lyon
Some say that it's better than Paris. Without agreeing or
disagreeing, we can say that Lyon is just perfect for a family Christmas
vacation. The city lights are almost as exciting as the shows put on in the
City of Lights. The Christmas market in Carnot Square will simply seduce you.
Open air skating rinks, traditional shows and a much quieter atmosphere is
waiting for your in Lyon.
Christmas
in Arles
Every year the Funny Christmas Festival (Drôles de Noëls)
seizes this Southern French town and fills its street with a festive
atmosphere. If you want to be a part of these celebrations, Arles is the place
where to spend your Christmas vacation. Tens of performances, music shows and
other types of events will make the joy of all members of your family. What
more would you want from a Christmas vacation? This holiday is dedicated to
families and this is what Arles offers.
Christmas
in Alsace
This French region famous for its wine production and
wine tasting tours is the perfect choice for all those who want to discover the
magic of this holiday and the Alsacian Christmas traditions. In Strasbourg, you
can discover the oldest Christmas market in France. If you choose Mullhouse or
Colmar, you will also have your share of twinkling lights and carols singing.
Christmas
in Paris
Last, but not least, the French capital is the heart
choice of romantic couples. However, with ice skating rinks scattered
throughout the city and special events organized especially for the little ones
at Disneyland Resort, you will find lots of things
to do in Paris during your Christmas vacation.

That's the true spirit of Christmas; people
being helped by people other than me.
