For smaller, wonderful markets in Germany try – Augsburg, Regensberg Bamberg Passau and Straubing. There are also some good ones at even smaller towns but generally they are only open on the weekends.

We noticed the above comment by Euro Trains, a name which contains a live link to a so-called Euro-Trains website, allegedly based in the UK, that purports to sell rail passes and train tickets at discounted prices. We highlight the point here because we are just a shade suspicious about this company and would counsel caution on the part of EuroCheapos who might be tempted to purchase tickets. If you’ve used them and have a positive experience to relate, we’d really love to hear it, but they’ve failed to respond to our requests for information and the terrible spelling and plain misleading content on their website just makes us wonder if they really are licensed retailers of rail passes and European rail tickets.

We live near London and I always visit Harrod's at Christmas. Its got a fabulous lights display and traditional indoor Christmas markets. This year we are planning to spend New Years on a local break in Europe, we have a two week holiday booked off work, but have not bought any tickets yet. With so much happening in the different regions we don't know where to start. We are planning to take the train and leave the car at Ebbsfleet. We understand that if we get a Euro pass we would be able to visit several locations on the same pass/ticket, so these locations all seem really great. We expect that I will be cold in the north, so may be South France seems a better option. Anyway this was a great article to start off our travel plans.

I’ve been to several markets in Austria and Prague and they’re lovely, but my favourite will always be the Christmas market in Budapest. Everything there is handmade by local artisans and each night there is live entertainment. As a bonus, it’s not nearly as crowded as those in Vienna and Salzburg.

Thanks Gemma. I’ll take a look at your story. As I recall, from the year I spent the holidays in London, there was lots of good cheer to be had at the pubs! And, Harrod’s was quite the scene, even if I just wanted some chocolate.

Nice round-up. If you’re planning a trip to the UK this Christmas, I’ve just written an article on the Auto Europe blog ( http://blog.auto-europe.co.uk/) about some of the best festive events taking place across the country.

Britain has some great Christmas markets – not on the scale of those listed in this article, but very quaint and full of seasonal cheer.
