This Air Canada Vacations European Christmas markets tours lineup features three 4-star fly-and-rail packages from Toronto, starting from $3,319 CAD per person (taxes and other fees included), covering Amsterdam, Cologne and Brussels; Vienna and Prague; and Strasbourg and Colmar via Paris. Each itinerary is built around Europe's famous winter market season, with guided walking tours, city cards, and market visits woven throughout.

Book by July 27, 2026, to secure these prices.


Why European Christmas Markets Stand Out


Europe's Christmas markets are a genuinely different kind of travel experience — centuries-old traditions of outdoor markets, mulled wine, handcrafted goods, and city squares lit up in winter light that have to be seen to be understood. The three itineraries in this lineup each approach the market season from a different regional angle, covering the Low Countries and German Rhineland, the Austro-Hungarian corridor, and the Alsatian wine route in France.

Amsterdam, Cologne & Brussels covers the Benelux and German market circuit over 8 nights, including the Valkenburg Christmas Market, Amsterdam's canal cruise, and rail connections through Maastricht, Cologne, Luxembourg, and Brussels.

Vienna & Prague spends 7 nights in two of Central Europe's most magical winter cities, including Schönbrunn Palace, a private guided walk through Vienna's Christmas markets, a Sacher cake experience, and a day trip to Český Krumlov from Prague. Strasbourg & Colmar routes through Paris before heading to Alsace by train — 7 nights that combine a Seine River cruise in Paris with guided walking tours of two of France's most beloved Christmas market towns.

Why Book Through Boarding Pass Travel


Three fly-and-rail itineraries through Europe's Christmas market season, each with a different regional focus and a dense stack of guided inclusions — here's where having an advisor makes choosing (and booking) genuinely easy.


We help you choose the right market circuit for your travel style. The Low Countries and Rhine, Central Europe's grand imperial cities, and the Alsatian wine route are three completely different winter experiences. A Boarding Pass Travel advisor matches the right itinerary to what you're actually looking for.


We know what each "More Moments" inclusion actually means on the ground. From Schönbrunn in December to a Sacher cake at a Viennese coffeehouse to a river cruise in Paris, we can walk you through what each day actually looks like before you book.


We handle the fly-and-rail logistics on your behalf. Multiple train connections across international borders are built into each itinerary — we manage the full booking with Air Canada Vacations, so nothing falls through the cracks.


An advocate if anything changes. A dedicated travel advisor who knows your full booking can act on your behalf immediately if anything shifts before you travel.
