Santa has some exciting news for our Magical Guests!

I recently had the pleasure of being a guest on the Traveling Culturati podcast, where we dove into the magic of European Christmas markets 🎄✨

In this special cross-featured episode, I share stories, traditions, and insider tips from some of Europe’s most enchanting Christmas markets—why they’re so beloved, what makes each region unique, and how travelers can experience the true festive spirit beyond the stalls and lights.

If you love mulled wine, twinkling town squares, centuries-old traditions, and the cozy charm of winter travel, this conversation is for you.

🎙️ Christmas in a Castle ft. Roger “The Castle Man” 🏰✨

In this festive episode, I’m joined by the legendary Roger the Castle Man for a magical deep-dive into what it’s really like to spend Christmas inside a historic castle. From roaring fireplaces and medieval halls decked in holiday décor to secret passageways, centuries-old traditions, and the ultimate cozy winter atmosphere — Roger walks us through the experience like no one else can.

We talk about:
❄️ What makes castle holidays different from any other getaway
🎄 How to create that aristocratic Christmas vibe (even at home)
🏰 The surprising modern comforts hidden behind ancient stone walls
✨ Roger’s favorite castle holiday memories — and how you can book your own

If you’ve ever dreamed of celebrating Christmas like royalty, this episode will spark your imagination and give you the inside tips to make it happen.

Grab some cocoa, settle in, and let’s step into the castle together.

Join Sally & Wendy chatting about how visiting the markets with Viking is a great way to go! Plus some great offers for you!
