If you’re open to journeying to places that don’t necessarily offer the ‘best’ weather over Christmas, there are plenty of enticing options.

Here are five alternative destinations for your Christmas getaway.
These destinations are perfect for those who aren’t after “the best weather”, but still dream of spending Christmas enjoying truly unique experiences.
