For Newmarket Holidays lighter nights, warmer temperatures and the first signs of spring can only mean one thing - the start of Christmas!

The escorted tour specialist today launches its Festive Tours brochure for 2023, with new breaks to the Peak District, Madeira and Budapest among the holiday highlights included.

The festive launch is supported with an early booking offer, with savings of 15% available on featured tours until April 17. 

Covering Christmas markets, Christmas and New Year holidays, the festive breaks brochure offers a wide variety of group tours at home and abroad and includes traditional celebrations, snow-capped adventures and warm-weather relaxtion.

There are seven new tours including Christmas in the Peak District, featuring trips to Bakewell and Buxton, Midnight Mass at a local church and a visit to stately Chatsworth House to enjoy the extravagant decorations.

New Year in Madeira is a new eight-day celebration of the Portuguese Island, with walking tours to Funchal, the remote west and a visit to Ribeiro Frio Nature Reserve, with a gala dinner and fireworks to bring in New Year.

The operator has also expanded its selection of Christmas market tours to add Zagreb, Hamburg and Budapest to the selection of destinations for travellers who want to discover traditional gifts and speciality foods in beautifully decorated locations.

Richard Forde, Head of Trade Sales at Newmarket Holidays said: "We are really excited to be launching our Festive Brochure, which features exciting new destinations such as Zagreb, plus returning favourites including our New Year on Safari tour, which was such a success in 2022 

"They say that Christmas gets earlier every year, but one of the themes we've seen from customers in 2023 is that people are booking further in advance to help manage budgets, so introducing our new Christmas and New Year tours and launch offer now gives travel agents a really strong opportunity to secure early sales."
