Bored of the same old Christmas traditions? Then why not shake up your festive season by taking an extraordinary December adventure holiday with Elegant Resorts?
December is a wonderful time to discover some of the world's most spectacular destinations from an entirely new perspective. Whether you want to embark on an exhilarating experience in the run up to Christmas, enjoy an unforgettable festive escape or make the most of Twixmas and New Year with an adventure somewhere completely new. With a tailor made itinerary created with the help of the Luxury Travel Specialists at Elegant Resorts, your December adventure holiday can be shaped around the experiences that inspire you most.
We can help you create Adventure holidays in December which incorporate an incredible variety of activities. In the USA, cowboy style ranch adventure holidays provide the opportunity to experience the great outdoors in an authentic Western setting, with horseback riding, hiking and other activities providing a fascinating insight into life on a real life working ranch. For something more remote, New Zealand's spectacular wilderness is perfect for adventurous travellers, with opportunities to hike through breathtaking landscapes and discover cascading waterfalls hidden among lush forests providing scenery unlike anything you will find elsewhere in the world.
Wildlife lovers can venture into the Himalayas on a remarkable expedition in search of the elusive snow leopard. Trekking through dramatic mountain landscapes in search of one of the world's most mysterious big cats combines the excitement of a wildlife adventure holiday with the chance to experience an extraordinary and rarely visited environment. Expert guides can help you understand the unique wildlife, landscapes and cultures encountered along the way, creating an adventure that goes far beyond simply seeing a new destination up close.
Patagonia offers another exceptional setting for December adventure holidays. Explore the vast fjords, glaciers and wilderness of this remote corner of South America on an expedition accompanied by a National Geographic Expeditions guide and palaeologist. From spectacular scenery to fascinating discoveries, this is an opportunity to explore one of the world's great wildernesses while gaining insights from experts with an unrivalled passion for the natural world.
December also provides plenty of opportunities for high energy adventures in warmer climes. In Dubai, exhilarating quad bike treks can take you deep into the desert, combining dramatic landscapes with the thrill of travelling across the dunes. In the Maldives, the warm Indian Ocean provides a spectacular playground for watersports, whether you want to try kayaking, snorkelling, diving or other activities beneath the surface.
For an altogether different experience, head north from the UK to Finland for snowmobile treks through snow covered Arctic landscapes in search of the majestic Northern Lights. Seeing this incredible display is a bucket list experience, being one of nature's most incredible visual extravaganzas.
The timing of your adventure is entirely up to you. You could travel during the first part of December and return home in time for Christmas, spend the festive period exploring somewhere extraordinary or take advantage of the quieter days between Christmas and New Year for a memorable Twixmas escape. Alternatively, welcome the New Year surrounded by spectacular scenery and unforgettable experiences before continuing your journey into the New Year.
