Xmas Holidays - The gift of winter sun during the festive break
Is it time for an Xmas holiday with a difference? Grey winter days in the UK are the reason why increasing numbers of Brits take off to sunnier climes for their Xmas holidays. Imagine unwrapping your presents on an idyllic beach in Mauritius, or eating Christmas dinner in an aromatic restaurant in North Africa's Tunisia. In keeping with the season, you could journey to Israel and combine a cultural tour of Jerusalem and Bethlehem with relaxation at a Red Sea resort such as Eilat, known for sandy beaches and great snorkelling. December is an excellent month to make the most of your kids' Xmas holidays and jet off somewhere exciting. If you need ideas for Xmas breaks with a difference, the Web is the ideal place to start researching your trip.

Xmas Holidays - Break with tradition and book a cruise or skiing trip
There are many great options if you're willing to break with tradition for your Xmas holiday. Christmas cruises are a popular option at this time of year, and could take you to the cheery Mediterranean sun via Spain, Greece and the Canary Islands. Or if your budget will stretch, what could be more glamorous than a winter cruise in the Caribbean? Skiing holidays in Italy, France or Austria are also an excellent choice for Xmas holidays. Many skiing resorts cater extremely well for visitors seeking the perfect Christmas setting. It's worth researching the market early for the best Xmas holiday deals.
