Links we love: December

Here’s a round-up of what we've been reading, watching, and loving in travel this month.

This ode to Dresden, Germany definitely got us in the holiday spirit. The city is home to one of the oldest Christmas markets in the world—you can visit Dresden’s Christmas market on tour!

Speaking of the holidays, we love a good gift guide (did you check out our best experience gifts to give this year?). This cookie swap guide really spoke to us—it’s one of our team's holiday traditions!

If that has you inspired to bake your own holiday cookies, check out this twist on Hannukkah treats.

A lot of year-end roundups caught our eye—but this list of the best travel photos from 2019 had everyone inspired and excited about new adventures.

We're looking forward to 2020—and thinking of how to send off the decade in style. That's why this article on New Year’s Eve travel destinations caught our eye. Would you celebrate New Year’s Eve with us on a Special Event Tour?

My last trip in ten words: “Tasting wine, strolling though vineyards—vacation doesn’t get any better.” — Product Designer Allison on her trip in France (one of our 2020 Must-See Destinations!)
