Winter’s best features are on full display in December. Check out our handpicked locations filled with fresh snowfall, festive storefronts, and drinks that warm your core.
1.) Frankfurt, Germany
Frankfurt is one of the cheapest places to travel this December. December brings a magical feeling to the city, when Christmas markets and ice skating rinks open to the public, and the city’s famous apple wine is served at every corner.
2.) Quebec City, Canada
Few can deny the romance of Quebec City come wintertime. Within the walled city, horse-drawn carriages rumble down Old Town’s streets, low-lit wine bars fill with hand-holding couples, and the Place D’Youville opens its rink for ice-skating.
3.) Siem Reap, Cambodia
December spells dry season for Siem Reap, where visitors can enjoy consistently cloudless skies and refreshingly comfortable temperatures, perfect for active pursuits like walking tours of Angkor Wat or cycling through the city streets.
4.) Nassau, Bahamas
If you’re looking to swap chilly weather with chilling on the beach, we can think of no better place to soak in the rays than the Bahamas.
5.) Jackson Hole, Wyoming
Wyoming’s Teton Range is a playground for outdoor adventure: hiking, camping, skiing and snowboarding. Everywhere you look, there are jaw-dropping views of the surrounding mountain peaks.
6.) Kochi, India
Houseboats cruise the backwaters, wellness retreats are tucked into jungle forests, and life moves at a leisurely pace. Weather is blissfully cooler in December.
7.) Everglades National Park, Florida
December is one of the best times to visit south Florida’s Everglades, when humidity is at an all-time low and less rain means wildlife congregate at predictable spots.
8.) Las Vegas, Nevada
If you’re in for games, thrills, and pure sensory overload, Las Vegas is the way to go. December sees the lowest hotel rates all year and downtown’s food scene is explosive right now.
