Tokyo
The land of the Rising Sun will see its temperatures drop to a cool 4 to 12 degrees this December, and rain will be virtually non-existent. But don’t let that stop you - we’ll get you solid savings on flights as well, so go forth.
Seoul
Not to be outdone, Seoul pulls out all the stops for travellers stopping by in the December holidays as well. Korea’s capital turns into a spellbound snowscape at the end of the year, featuring the royal palaces and bustling main streets in a whole new light.
Taipei
A beautiful country all year round, December gives rise to some hidden gems within Taipei and its outskirts. Start the trip off with some quirky comfort food - try TankQ Cafe & Bar’s breakfast set served in a suitcase, or every other meal in one of Modern Toilet Restaurant’s loo-shaped bowls.
Bangkok
For better or for worse, Bangkok stays sunny throughout the month of December, and skips the rainy days as well. This means more joy for shopaholics and gastronomes to wander the streets by day and by night, looking for all the love the Land of Smiles has to offer.
Osaka
For a different side of Japan in winter, head over to Osaka! Holding a similar temperature range to Tokyo in December, the climate is perfect for treks to the castles and temples of old.
London
The capital city of England takes on a whole new image in the December school holidays, as the majestic open-air gardens shed their greens and are replaced with shades of white.
Hong Kong
Asia’s most famous cityscape will be booming with activity in the December period, and one can expect great fun and festivities as a family.
Manila
The largely Christian community in Manila celebrates Christmas with fervor, and travellers will be sucked into a circus of festivities in the month of December.
Kuala Lumpur
The beauty of Kuala Lumpur for Singaporeans is its proximity - it’s so near to us that it could easily be a second destination after your first December holiday trip, should the travel bug not be appeased.
Melbourne
While most other countries experience winter in December, Australia sits on the other side of the globe and puts it in reverse, enjoying a comfortable range hovering around 20 degrees.
Perth
On the other side of Australia is Perth, which enjoys the same weather as Melbourne during the December holidays. Perth and Melbourne are constantly competing for the culture crown in Australia, so expect to be wowed by their artistry, food, and nightlife that can be found nowhere else.
The end of the year should be about relaxation and celebration, and nothing says that quite like a great holiday. Treat yourself, and grab your next flight to happiness today!
