£ 79!

Last Christmas might be an absolutely classic festive tune, but let’s face it…Xmas 2020 didn’t exactly go to plan, did it?! Well fear not, because this year we’re upping the ante with an entire sleigh-load of enchanting breaks so you can enjoy more yuletide merriment than ever before! Brighter times are on the horizon and we’re going to completely dazzle you with our range of Christmas escapes. From Showtime and Twixmas to Family Fun and getaways to celebrate the big day itself, we’ve got something to suit every taste and budget...just make sure you’re on Santa’s nice list! Does anything evoke that warm, festive feeling more than a trip to a magical Christmas Market? Just think, historic streets dappled with a cascade of glittering lights and a blanket of chalet stalls packed pell-mell with an assortment of unique gifts to browse while you wander around clutching a cup of mulled wine in one hand and a moreish mince pie in the other. Bliss! Then again, maybe you love Christmas SO much that a Turkey & Tinsel getaway is more your style? Offering the chance to celebrate the big day twice in one year, most of our breaks are complete with a dusting of light entertainment, a sprinkle of included excursions and a traditional ‘Christmas’ dinner…all the ingredients needed to create an unforgettable festive holiday with loved ones and new friends alike. So, what are you waiting for? Our elves are ready in the workshop (friendly reservations team awaiting your call) and our fleet of reindeers (coach operators) are chomping at the bit, so if you can’t wait to eat, drink and be merry (look out for the 2 for 1 bar offer on selected breaks) then grab your highlighter and start circling your favourite yuletide tours on the pages within. We look forward to welcoming you back on our safe ‘good to go’ coaches for a fabulous festive breakaway...and maybe a Christmas carol singalong on board too!

A WARM WELCOME

As you may already know, last year the National Holidays brand was acquired by the JG Travel Group, who have operated UK and European breaks for 25 years through Just Go! Holidays and Omega Breaks. This means that we can now offer you an even larger choice of destinations! Don’t worry, the majority of holidays you know and love are still available, all your usual pickup points will remain the same, prices will be similar and you will even find a small selection of former Bay hotels that have now reopened under new management. We will also be using many local coach operators and therefore there is every chance you will see a familiar face behind the wheel! Still got a question?
