Baltic Christmas Markets

Kickstart the festive season with one of these stunning cities as the backdrop to your Christmas adventure! Head to Riga and bask in the city’s beauty and discover Doma Square in Riga's Old Town transformed into a magical winter wonderland - you won't want to miss the chance to marvel at the city's magnificent Christmas tree in the centre of the square! Illuminated by hundreds of twinkling lights and adorned with an array of beautiful decorations, spend your days getting merry with mulled wine and rocking around the Christmas tree! Or, why not lose yourselves in the loveliness of Lithuania and soak in the sights of Vilnius, where you’ll marvel at the magic of the Cathedral Square and Town Hall Square - featuring beautifully decorated stalls offering a variety of handmade crafts, seasonal treats, and unique gifts. Take a trip to tree-mendous Tallinn and stroll through the cobbled streets of the Old Town - you'll be snowed under by the array of festive stalls, the twinkling lights and the grand Christmas tree in the Town Hall Square! Wherever you go, you’ll be able to tuck into traditional festive treats, sip Christmassy tipples, and shop for unique gifts, all while enjoying live music and carolers (and, let’s not forget the incredible decorations, adorning the city centres and transforming them into winter wonderlands!)

Riga, Latvia

Riga is a small metropolis with a big-city atmosphere that's hard to find elsewhere in the world. Set on a flat plain divided by the 500-metre-wide Daugava River, the city offers a funky and vibrant magnetism you'll find impossible to resist! We recommend a visit to Vermanes Park, a peaceful and beautiful area secluded from the hustle and bustle of the city, where you can hire a boat and sail idyllically along the canal. Check out the Central Market, an excellent place to explore and get a real insight into local life in Riga, with loads of yummy treats to choose from, plus cobbled streets and candlelit bars. You'll get lost amongst the maze of steeples and turrets - all part of the fun - before heading out to experience the glitzy nightlife and thriving restaurant scene. The famous Cat House is worth checking out, too - don’t forget to find out about its witty history! Plus, if you love art and culture, the Latvian National Museum of Art is worth a visit, with a large collection of modern art. We think you'll love Latvia...

Tallinn, Estonia

Arguably one of Europe’s best-undiscovered city destinations, Tallinn benefits from flying under the typical holidaymaker's radar and therefore promises a city break minus the swarms of tourists so ever-present in its better-known counterparts. If you like your cities to pack a visual punch with ancient architecture, cobbled streets and historic charm then this is undoubtedly the destination for you, with 14th-century buildings and magnificent architecture as far as the eye can see. Particular highlights have to include the World Heritage-listed Old Town for a leisurely wander, the Kadriorg Palace for a culture fix and the nearby Pirita for those who seek sun sea and sand. History buffs will rejoice in the opportunity to learn all about the city and its lesser-known history through its many intriguing museums, including the Tallinn Museum of Orders of Knighthood, the Estonian Health Care Museum and the Estonian Open Air Museum. Despite its relatively small size, Tallinn is home to plenty of partying split across a wide number of eccentric bars and exciting nightclubs. Discover by day, let loose by night – Tallinn has everything you could want!

Vilnius, Lithuania

Whether you’re aiming to feed your cultural cravings with trips to Vilnius’ main attractions, or simply to spend your days strolling through quaint streets and watching the world go by from a café window, Vilnius has something to offer every happy holidaymaker. Head to the Three Crosses monument for a picturesque panorama across the city, taking in the red-tiled roofs and contrasting skyscrapers that define the city. Once you’ve got a lay of the land, why not visit the 16th-century Church of St. Anne, Gediminas’ Tower, or Užupis, the bohemian district known for its riverside pubs, snazzy restaurants, alternative art shops and vibrant nightlife? With a proud tradition of farmhouse brewing and quirky drinking holes, Vilnius makes for an amazing drinking destination, day or night! If you fancy stepping into a fairy tale, head on a 35-minute car journey to Trakai Island Castle. Built-in the 14th century, this dramatic castle sits idyllically in the middle of a lake and will surely fill your Insta feed! After you’ve worked up an appetite, fall in love with Lithuania’s incredible cuisine. Hearty favourites like Cepelinai, fried bread, and potato pancakes will have you missing the city the moment you’re homeward bound!
