Do you want to plan a December vacation but don't know what to start? Your answer to this question may help: Do you want the holidays turned all the way up — or do you want to escape them completely?
Escape them — sun, nature, no tinsel → Costa Rica. Trade tinsel for toucans. Try Rincón de la Vieja, San Gerardo de Dota, Puerto Viejo over the sold-out marquee names.
Turn them up, make it magical — aurora, snow, hygge → Norway. Base near Alta, Lyngen, or Senja instead of crowded Tromsø, and Travel by DAE will build in multiple aurora nights as a buffer(we can even rebuild the itinerary in real time when the sky clears).
Turn them up, make it festive — markets, food, culture → Spain. Spanish markets don't follow the German template. Travel by DAE times the short-window fairs (like Santo Tomás on Dec 21), sequences the Basque food route, and books the pintxos tables that don't take December walk-ins.
