Lisbon, Portugal 2024

In a city brimming with history and tradition, there is something irresistibly magical about Christmas in Lisbon. A great place to start your festive adventure is one of the bustling Christmas markets, like Rossio Square Christmas Market or Christmas Market at Campo Pequeno, where you’ll find toys, vintage items, clothes, and more. If you are travelling with kids (or even if you’re not) you’ll definitely want to visit Europe’s tallest Christmas tree at Terreiro do Paço. And don’t forget, the festive season is the perfect time to explore the cuisines of Portugal, with lavish Christmas and New Year’s feasts to be found wherever you go.

Siem Reap, Cambodia

Siem Reap, Cambodia 2024

The French influences that are to be found in day-to-day life in Cambodia mean the Christmas spirit is alive and well in this beautiful Southeast Asian country. The main attractions should definitely be on your list — Angkor Wat, Phnom Penh, and other much-frequented haunts. But Cambodia also has much to reward those who get off the beaten path. Explore Thonle Sap, Southeast Asia’s largest freshwater lake, and the nearby biosphere reserve. Discover the origins of Kampot pepper. Or get out there and explore some of the lesser-known temple complexes that dot the lush countryside.

Where to stay: If you’re visiting Cambodia this festive season, the ancient temples of Angkor Wat will almost certainly be on your list. FCC Angkor by Avani, a historic mansion renovated in neo-colonial style, is the perfect base for your temple explorations and Christmas and New Year festivities. It is also located in the heart of Siem Reap, so you’re just steps from everything this bustling town has to offer.

Victoria Falls, Zambia

Victoria Falls, Zambia 2024

One of the best things about spending the holiday season in Victoria Falls is that it has something for every age and every taste. If you’d like to spend lazy days indoors, opening presents, and enjoying seasonal culinary delights, then this is the right place for you.

Or if you prefer something a little more upbeat, Christmas and the New Year are packed with adventure for the whole family at Victoria Falls. Adventures range from white-water rafting on the Zambezi to bungee jumping, canoeing, and micro-lighting above the Falls. It’s also a paradise for animal lovers and river cruising along "God’s Highway" is a relaxing way to view the region’s variety of wildlife.

Where to stay: Avani Victoria Falls Resort, located just steps from Victoria Falls, has a celebratory festive season holiday programme filled with sparkling experiences for the whole family. You can enjoy special festive benefits for longer stays, including AvaniKids perks, and enjoy lavish dining events on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, and New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day.
