A1Travel is once again tapping into the fact that people like to use their Christmas break to top up on some sun. So, the A1Travel team has put together some amazing Christmas deals.

(TRAVPR.COM) UNITED KINGDOM - December 7th, 2015 - With Christmas fast approaching, the thoughts of many UK residents turn not to turkey and tinsel, but to getting away from it all instead. Grey skies and the fact that many firms close for a couple of weeks over the Christmas period, is tempting more people to seek out some winter sun. Every year the numbers spending Christmas abroad rise, with around 5 million Brits enjoying a break abroad.

This year A1Travel is offering a long list of deals for traditional winter getaway favourites like Cyprus, Madeira and Tenerife. There are also tempting offers available for Morocco too. If you want to get away from everything, pack your bags and pick a destination.

Cyprus

Cyprus at Christmas is wonderful. You get all of the traditions mixed with fantastic entertainment laid on by hotels, town halls and bars. The Cypriots love the festive seasons. Several Christmas fairs are held on the island, the biggest being held in Limassol.

All of the resorts light up their main streets, so there is plenty of festive spirit. Many of the bigger towns and resorts also offer free firework displays too, which adds to the festive excitement.

Madeira

Madeira is beautiful at any time of the year, but the addition of festive lights turns it into a magical place to spend the Christmas break. The best examples of festive lights are in Funchal city centre, but every town on the island celebrates by lighting up their main streets.

Children will love the Christmas fireworks. If you book early, you can get a panoramic view of this spectacular festive display by viewing it from the sea.

Tenerife

Tenerife is a fantastic Christmas destination. The sub-tropical island welcomes thousands every year to celebrate Christmas, so there is plenty of festive spirit. Every town and village puts up a traditional Belén, which is a model of the nativity, set in a town scene. Each one is different and they are all great fun to look at with lots of Spanish humour built into each display.

Morocco

A more unusual Christmas destination is Morocco. It is great for those who want to get away completely from all of the fuss of a traditional European Christmas. In Morocco, only a small percentage of the population celebrate Christmas, but you will find it celebrated in a small-scale way in the larger cities where people from across the globe live and work. Many hotels that cater mainly for Europeans also provide a Christmas dinner, and of course, the churches hold mass.

For those who still want to enjoy a traditional Christmas in the UK, the A1Travel team has put together a series of New Year deals too. New Years is celebrated in most parts of the world, so you are guaranteed great memories of seeing in 2016, almost regardless of where you travel.
