Happy Christmas everyone! This week all our deals are for January, for what could be a much-needed post-Christmas/New Year pick-me-up.
There’s still time to visit the Old Town Christmas Market at Innsbruck in the Austrian Tirol, which is open until January 6. It’s a beautiful city of medieval houses and the 16th century Goldenes Dachl (golden roof) with its 2,657 gilded copper tiles – all of this with the Nordkette mountains as a backdrop. With more than 60 exhibitors, the market is one of the city’s largest. Inspired by the stories of the Grimm brothers and Hans Christian Anderson, you will find figures from the well-known fairytales hanging in the alleyways – such as Little Red Riding Hood and Sleeping Beauty. A two-night Advent Package costs from €159pp and includes B&B accommodation, a 48-hour Innsbruck guest card, voucher for Gluhwein or punch, and a gift. More details are available from Visit Tirol.
Don’t forget to reserve your airport parking at least 24 hours before you go – this is especially important during peak holiday periods. If you’re flying from Gatwick, Cophall Parking has some offers just for Welove2ski viewers.
