We depart our overnight hotel and enjoy our included excursion to the charming French town of Metz. Spread across five historic squares, the markets here feel like a series of connected villages, each with its own charm.
Wooden chalets line the streets, selling handcrafted gifts, decorations and regional treats, while the scent of mulled wine, gingerbread and local specialities fills the air. Enjoy a stroll around the historic town centre and see the food specialities on Place de Chambre or enjoy the traditional market and 17-metre 'Christmas Pyramid' on Place Saint-Louis.
We then continue on to our hotel in the Alsace.

Sample delicious local specialities, gingerbread, festive biscuits and warming drinks while browsing the traditional wooden chalets. With its storybook scenery, twinkling lights and magical festive atmosphere, Colmar is the perfect destination for Christmas shopping, sightseeing and creating unforgettable memories.

This morning, we depart our hotel and head north to visit the Christmas markets in Reims, known as some of the most atmospheric in France – large, lively and set against a backdrop of historic architecture and Champagne culture.
With live entertainment, a festive village feel and the grandeur of the illuminated cathedral nearby, the Reims Christmas markets combine tradition, elegance and festive cheer in a truly memorable setting.
