To experience the magic of the lead-up to Christmas - UK & European style - is a sight to behold and an experience not to be missed.
First stop London
Bus tour and a black cab tour for seeing the sights up close and personal.
Next stop Edinburgh, an easy 4.5-hour train ride
Different complexity to London but equally Christmas-focused. Taxi hire with a request for a 30-pound tour of lights at night is less expensive than the London Black Cab Tour with a smaller area to cover.
Next stop onto Paris via the Eurostar train
An amazing experience taking in both the City of Paris and a trip to country Strasbourg, just 1.5 hours on the train.
The city so Parisienne, Strasbourg so enchanting.
Final destination, Brugges
What a Christmas destination!
Markets, mulled wine, chestnuts, specialty Christmas decoration shops, the canal, beautiful architecture, friendly people, historic sites - just perfect.
Spending Christmas in The UK or Europe was never the goal.
The outcome was beyond expectations.
✅ Bucket List fulfilled
