A Festive Travel Treat

Looking for a magical way to get into the festive spirit? Our Christmas rail breaks offer the perfect escape – whether you’re after a long weekend browsing charming Christmas markets or dreaming of a white Christmas in the snowy Swiss Alps. Each year, Ffestiniog Travel curates two special escorted tours to handpicked European destinations renowned for their enchanting Christmas markets. These short breaks combine the joy of festive shopping with cultural sightseeing, cosy seasonal treats, and of course, a few memorable rail journeys. The scent of mulled wine, twinkling lights, and handcrafted gifts will have you feeling truly festive.

For those wanting to make Christmas extra special, why not break with tradition and spend the holiday season in Switzerland? Travel by train into a winter wonderland and celebrate Christmas and New Year surrounded by snow-dusted mountains, cosy alpine towns, and good company. With scenic rail rides, festive meals, and magical views at every turn, it’s the perfect way to end the year on a high.
