Prague Christmas Markets City Break

Other airports and dates available.

Immerse yourself in one of Europe’s most enchanting winter wonderlands with a three-night festive city break to Prague. Known as the “City of a Hundred Spires,” the Czech capital comes alive each December with soaring Gothic and Baroque architecture draped in sparkling fairy lights, festive melodies drifting through historic squares, and the irresistible aromas of warm roasted chestnuts, spicy mulled wine (svařák), and sweet rolled trdelník pastries.

Your festive journey centres around Prague’s world-renowned seasonal markets, from the showstopping spectacle in the historic Old Town Square (Staroměstské náměstí)—framed by the twin Gothic towers of the Church of Our Lady before Týn—to the vibrant stalls filling Wenceslas Square. Stroll across the iconic, cobblestone Charles Bridge as winter mist rises over the Vltava River, or climb to Prague Castle for sweeping, panoramic views across snow-dusted red rooftops.

During your stay, retreat from the bustling city crowds to the peaceful and welcoming Hotel U Divadla. Set in an elegant Art Nouveau building in Prague’s leafy Braník district, this charming 4-star hotel provides a relaxing haven with swift tram and transit connections directly into the historic centre. With direct flights from Bristol and low deposit booking options, this three-night getaway offers the perfect festive pre-Christmas escape.
