A holiday trip can center on a familiar tradition or introduce a different way to spend the season. This selection pairs Porto’s Atlantic coastline with Vila Foz, mountain stays at CERVO and Dunton, and private journeys through Sri Lanka and Croatia with Experience Travel Group and Secret Dalmatia. For travel advisors shaping Christmas and New Year’s 2026, each offers a different pace and setting. Planning starts with the moments clients want to share, then brings together the right accommodation, meals and experiences around them.
Secret Dalmatia
Croatia offers another direction for clients planning a European holiday, particularly those whose interests center on history, food and local life.
Secret Dalmatia builds private itineraries around each group’s dates, preferences and pace, with local expertise guiding the details. Cultural and culinary tours, selected hotels and private transfers can form the basis of a Christmas or New Year’s journey, while specially arranged dinners give families and friends a reason to gather.
The team manages accommodation, services and experiences together, helping travel advisors turn an initial idea into a coordinated itinerary.
For the festive season, the starting point is a conversation about the travelers: the places they want to understand, the food they want to try and the time they want to spend together.
