Christmas is the perfect time of year to get away from the mundane and take an exciting vacation to somewhere warm, tropical and fun. Many Christmas all-inclusive vacations are surprisingly affordable and accessible if you know where to look.
Vacations in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, United States
If you’ve had enough of the holiday season in Canada, try on sunny Fort Lauderdale for size this year. Affordable flights and cheap Christmas all-inclusive vacations make it possible, even if your family is following a strict budget during the holidays. The popular Christmas on the Beach event draws hundreds out every year to the Hollywood Beach Theatre. Carollers welcome the holiday with the season’s favourite festive songs and dances. For kids and adults, the annual Candy Cane Parade features spectacularly decorated and brightly lit floats, marching bands, gigantic balloons and more. Christmas on Las Olas Boulevard is an event no one wants to miss, with all of the area’s most popular shops lit up and open late for nighttime fun and shopping just before Christmas.
Holidays in Mexico
If you’re in the mood for an extended holiday, check out one of the cheap Christmas all-inclusive vacations to Mexico this year. In Mexico, the longstanding tradition of the locals is to celebrate Christmas starting on Dec. 12 and ending Jan. 6. Festivities include Las Posadas, celebratory events that commemorate the journey made by Mary and Joseph just before the birth of Jesus. Have some fun in a craft-making workshop and learn how to build your own piñata filled with tasty sweets from local vendors. Wake up on Christmas morning in a lavishly decorated Mexican hotel and spend the afternoon with the family on the warm, inviting beach.
Orlando Vacations
A broad selection of Christmas all-inclusive vacations to Orlando is available to Canadians looking to spend some time somewhere unique, fun and full of warm holiday cheer. The popular ICE! exhibit, held annually at Gaylord Palms, is a fun family favourite featuring hundreds of expertly carved ice sculptures depicting cartoon characters, angels, Santa’s toy land and the Nativity Scene. Disney’s Epcot Centre and famed Animal Kingdom put on special Christmas-themed events as well, welcoming children and adults of all ages to explore their inner kid with thrilling rides and spectacular shows.
