About This Tour

A grand 15-day festive road trip through the Christmas markets of Vienna, Salzburg, Munich, Nuremberg and Dresden, finishing with the market in Prague's Old Town before returning through Český Krumlov to Vienna. Be aware before booking: this is mostly an Austria/Germany trip with a Czechia detour in the middle, not a Czechia-based tour. Of the 14 nights, 6 are in Austria (Vienna at the start, Salzburg, then Vienna again at the end via Linz), 5 are in Germany (Munich, Nuremberg, Dresden), and only 3 nights are in Czechia (Prague, then Český Krumlov) around days 10-13. Every night's hotel is confirmed in whichever country you're actually in that day. Adapted from a self-drive rental-car itinerary — Voyzo runs this route with your own private driver and vehicle instead.
