For many people Christmas is all about returning home and spending time with family and friends. Still once in a while Christmas can also be a great time of year to book a last minute break or mini getaway! If you’re looking to escape the festive madness this year and enjoy some quiet time away why not check out the travel section on ciao.co.uk for the best new ideas and inspiration? On Ciao you can also find the best deals around for trips in Europe and Africa, but if you’re not sure where to go or are just looking for some hints and tips we’ve included our favourite destinations below to help you get started.
For city breaks, Paris, New York and Barcelona are always popular locations but taking a short trip to less well known destinations such as the Moroccan capital, Marrakech or eastern European cities such as Ljubljana in Slovenia, Tallinn in Estonia and Krakow in Poland are increasingly making a name for themselves on the map and are all great options if you’re looking to treat a loved one with a surprise or romantic trip away.
If you’d prefer to stay local and remain in the UK for Christmas, there are also lots of deals to be found on trips to the countryside. Some of the most beautiful and scenic places in the UK worth a visit include: the Peak and Lake Districts, the New Forest, East Scotland and Snowdonia.
