Day One
Fly to Berlin and transfer to your hotel. After check-in, head out for a first look at the city. Berlin's legendarily efficient U-Bahn (underground), trams and buses bring everything within easy reach - from the glitz of Kurfurstendamm (or simply Ku'damm) to the bright lights of Potsdamer Platz and the bars and restaurants dotted around the city centre.
Day Two
Get to know Berlin on this morning's guided tour. Since 1989, the progress of reunification has been breathtakingly rapid, and is symbolized by Norman Foster's startling Reichstag building, which rises up close to the majestic Brandenburg Gate and the wooded acres of the Tiergarten.
After the tour, savour the aromas of gluhwein, almonds and sweet Christmas biscuits as you wander the city's wonderful 'Weinachtsmarkte' - from the Tyrolean wonderland of the 'Winterwelt' on Potsdamer Platz (complete with a 'mountain' restaurant, ice-rink and ski slope) to the traditional stalls nestled in the shadow of the ruined towers of Kaiser Wilhelm-Gedachniskirche.
Day Three
Spend another day exploring at your leisure. Delve deeper into Berlin's history in the city's world-class museums and see concrete reminders of its chequered past - Hitler's bunker, Checkpoint Charlie and the vast Olympic Stadium.
Alternatively, visit the other colourful markets. The fairground market at Alexanderplatz is popular with youngsters and the young at heart; the wonderful market in Spandau offers all the magic of the festive season in a picture-postcard-perfect setting; and the Gendarmenmarkt is a period re-creation that boasts high-quality arts, crafts and ceramics, and a wonderful gourmet tent.
Day Four
Transfer back to the airport for your flight home, taking with you wonderful memories of this special festive break.
