Around the Christmas holidays, Ine and her family travelled to enchanting Alsace. Their holiday home (the F88.053) was the ideal base: surrounded by nature, close to atmospheric Christmas markets and wonderfully peaceful. During the day, they enjoyed the Christmas magic in the picturesque villages, and in the evening, they warmed themselves by the open fire. Curious to find out how Ine experienced this winter trip? Read on to find out!
Winter in the Vosges and Alsace has something special about it. As the days grow shorter, towns and villages fill with lights; squares are festively decorated and the air fills with the scent of mulled wine. If you want to experience the ultimate Christmas feeling, you don't have to travel far. In and around the Vosges, you will find some of the most beautiful Christmas markets in Europe.
From the world-famous Christmas market in Strasbourg to the romantic streets of Colmar. Each market has its own character and atmosphere. The best part? From your Basic Travel holiday home, you can be there in no time.
