Double your holiday magic and save $20 per person with our Early Bird Discount on this Christmas Market double feature!

Your festive day kicks off as we cross the border into France to explore one of the country's most spectacular holiday destinations. Arriving in Metz in the late morning, you will have plenty of time to explore the historic heart of the city, with multiple markets in picturesque squares spread within easy walking distance of each other. It is the perfect opportunity to browse for unique artisan gifts, visit local gourmands, follow the rich aromas of roasted chestnuts, and grab a delicious French lunch before continuing your adventure.

But your day isn't done yet!

Warm back up on the bus as we take the short drive north to experience the spectacular Winter Lights festival in Luxembourg. Arriving just as the winter afternoon begins to fade, you will see the city completely transform under a canopy of more than a mile of glittering lights. Wander past charming wooden chalets offering traditional hand-crafted products, and taste your way through a unique culinary blend of French, German, and Luxembourgish flavors—perfectly paired, of course, with a steaming mug of Glühwein to cap off your evening.

Army Outdoor Recreation helps you easily experience two of the region's best Christmas Markets in a single day. Each of these Christmas markets is an incredible destination on its own, but combining them maximizes your holiday cheer while minimizing your costs. Plus, our Early Bird Discount automatically applies to the first 22 seats booked, making this cross-border Christmas experience even more affordable for the whole family. With convenient, hassle-free departures from your choice of Smith or Pulaski Barracks, all you need to do is reserve your space today!
