No more spending at home on Christmas Eve! Today you are more and more numerous to want to celebrate elsewhere in the USA or abroad! We also receive many emails asking for tips and ideas of destinations on this Christmas day.

On our side, we already have little opportunity to spend Christmas elsewhere. In 2018, it was in the United States and specifically in Las Vegas during a road trip in the West, this year it will be in the tropics!

If you also want to go elsewhere for Christmas Eve celebrations this year and want to know about more Christmas Ideas for Decorations. I propose a small selection of 5 perfect destinations where to spend this Christmas day 2019!

Our selection of 5 Destinations to on Christmas Day 2019


FINNISH LAAPONIA

The Lapland is the land of Santa Claus, so if there is indeed a destination where to spend Christmas is here, above the Arctic Circle! Finland in winter is magical, everything is white, the trees are covered with a thick layer of snow, the sun is very low when it rises to give a pink color to the sky. An enchanting and unforgettable setting.

For children, young and old, Finnish Lapland is the perfect place to celebrate this Christmas. Between strolls on dogsledding or in reins, Nordic activities or evenings in front of the fireplace of a log cabin, there is plenty to do. There is even a Santa Claus Village, located in Rovaniemi, the capital of Lapland. In Levi, further north, you will find a small village of goblins, the Tortola - Elves Village.
Celebrating Christmas in Lapland is the promise of a trip to another world! Merry Christmas 2019.

ALSACE

There is not necessarily need to go far or to the end of the world to spend Christmas Eve! In France, to live the magic of Christmas day and discover its traditions, it is in Alsace that you have to go!

From the end of November, towns and villages are lit up with illuminations. In the big squares, the Christmas markets settle down letting out the smells of gingerbread, pretzel, and hot wines and with variety of Merry Christmas images to wish your love ones. Some villages like Kaysersberg or Riquewihr are known for their magical atmosphere during this time of the year. The Christmas markets of Colmar and Strasbourg are among the must-sees, besides that of Strasbourg has already been elected the most beautiful Christmas markets in Europe! For sure, you will live a unique and authentic experience!

NEW YORK

New York during the Christmas holidays is something exceptional, crazy and gigantic! In normal times it is already a city that never sleeps so I let you imagine during this time of the year! It all starts after Thanksgiving. Illuminations everywhere and totally top-heavy, showcases fairy decor, Christmas music in stores and a huge tree.

TAHITI AND ITS ISLANDS

What's better than spending Christmas in the tropics, in flip flops and swimsuits, on the other side of the planet on a motto or on a lagoon paradise?

Tahiti and her islands are the journeys of a lifetime, so why not go there during the Christmas season? No snow on the horizon, nor natural fir trees in the mountains, but a small Christmas market in Pipette the capital, entertainment, a festive atmosphere, and a Christmas spirit present!

THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

Another paradise destination where to spend a totally different Christmas day! The Dominican Republic!

Here, locals expect two things throughout the year: Holy Week (equivalent to our Easter weekend) and Christmas day. Two very festive moments and totally crazy! Here, we celebrate every day, we spend without counting, we eat good typical dishes and we live the moment intensely under the heat and sounds of Merengue and Bachata!

And where are you celebrating Christmas day this year? Where would you dream to spend it?
