There’s a lot to be said for organising a getaway at this time of year.
Whether you’re thinking about a last minute winter break with family or friends, or planning ahead for when those inevitable January blues kick in, a fun-filled holiday will no doubt put a pep in your step.
VIP Magazine has teamed up with Sunway Holidays to bring you the top destinations for you and the family – happy planning!
Winter wonderland
Give your kids a childhood memory they’ll never forget by whisking them away to a fairytale world of snow-covered forests and the opportunity to meet Santa himself: Lapland.
The Finnish region has the last remaining expanse of wilderness in northern Europe, including the coastline, forests, mountains and unspoilt rivers, and in winter this becomes a magical winter wonderland, where you can experience the fun of snow mobiling, toboggans and sleigh rides.
From the moment you arrive in the snow-clad magical world of Lapland, your time is filled with things that dreams are made of, such as snowmobile adventures, a reindeer sleigh ride through the snowy forest, a husky dog ride, a trip to Santa’s post office and much more. A special Christmas indeed!

Hit the slopes!
With the promise of spectacular views, peaceful ski villages and the thrill of racing down a snow-covered mountain, it’s no wonder skiing holidays entice lovers of the great outdoors back every year.
In France, the all-inclusive Aime La Plagne Club Med resort, which sits on a mountain top facing Mont-Blanc (just step out of the door and you’re ready to hit the slopes!) is perfect for a family holiday.
After perfecting your technique on the pistes, with ski lessons included for all levels, you and the gang can enjoy some apres-ski fun and then relax in the homely warm stone and wood hotel before spending the evening enjoying the culinary delights that Club Med offers.
