Season's greetings

There is no better way of getting into the spirit of the season than by visiting Berlin’s traditional Christmas markets with their dizzying array of hand-crafted goods and traditional food and drinks. Even in the coldest weather, a Glühwein or two – the hot mulled wine that is a staple of the markets – will have you feeling warm and cosy in no time. And if you're lucky you're able to keep the mug it came in!

You will be taken to three of the most attractive markets in the city. The first stop is Spandau in western Berlin, which boasts one of the biggest Christmas markets in Germany but is seldom frequented by tourists. Then move on to the magnificent Charlottenburg Palace, where the Christmas market has been a local favourite for many years and finish at the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church, the iconic landmark of West Berlin.

Where the Cold War began

For nearly three centuries the scenic town of Potsdam, just outside Berlin, was the residence of the Prussian kings, princes and German emperors of the House of Hohenzollern, who created a fairytale landscape of palaces, gardens and churches that rank among the most beautiful in Europe. This walk takes you past the dreamlike castle of Babelsberg and up to the lakeside Marble Palace with its Greek temple ruins.

Explore the quaint Dutch quarter and appreciate why Potsdam is a UNESCO World Heritage site.
