Hi Will,
Agree with above comments about Hogmanay in Edinburgh instead of the Christmas trip.

Morning everyone, particularly Katy1717,
I was on the Lake Como Christmas break last year and had a brilliant time! The hotel, Grand Britannia Excelsior, is fantastic, the food was always good and the Christmas Day dinner commenced at 12 noon and was finally completed at 4.00pm!!! The reason for this was it was waiter service (rather than the usual buffet), 8 courses AND all guests at the hotel received a Christmas present from the English owner and his Italian wife. They had bought what was originally a family owned villa and have spent a fortune refurbishing it.
The all included trips, boat trip to Bellagio was lovely but the highlight was the St. Moritz & Bernina Express, indescribable travelling in the train through the mountains and all the snowfields.
However, if you have Richard Lord as your Tour Manager you will really strike lucky! I believe he's the best Tour Manager of all the 9 tours I've taken with JY!!!!
Good luck and good hunting for your perfect Christmas break.
Denise
