Travel Fun and Adventure

Searching for a White Christmas

August 03, 2024 • John Dornoff • Episode 131

In the last episode of the Travel Fun and Adventure Podcast, we discussed great places to go if you want to get into the Christmas Spirit. In this episode, we take it one step further and call out places where you not only get the Christmas feeling but also have a good chance of having a White Christmas.

However, while we give you a list of good places where you could have a White Christmas, no one can guarantee that there will be snow on the ground, but hopefully, you will find some white stuff.

United States:

1. Lake Placid, New York

2. Breckenridge, Colorado

3. Salt Lake City, Utah

4. Flagstaff, Arizona

5. North Conway, New Hampshire

Europe

1. Zakopane, Poland

2. Rovaniemi, Finland

3. Krakow, Poland

4. Innsbruck, Austria

5. Cesky Krumlov, Czech Republic

Here are some tips for planning your vacation, although it should be noted that most of these are similar to our previous video:

1. Book early. I know that is what we say every time, but for a busy season like Christmas, you must book early.
2. Check for nearby towns that might save you some money. In Europe, there are usually a lot of smaller towns you can stay in and take a train ride to the major tourist attractions and Christmas markets.
3. If you're not used to driving in the snow, consider a place where you don't need to, such as Salt Lake City or almost anywhere in Europe.
4. If you are driving to your destination, make sure that your car is ready for winter driving—check out our Tips for Winter Driving podcast.
5. Check out travel packages to your destination or tours, but remember it is often cheaper to book directly with transportation providers and lodging than it is to book a package on 3-party sites.
