Winter holidays are a time when travel becomes especially desirable, and the question of gifts becomes more pressing than ever.

How can you save money when planning a trip in winter?

After the New Year holidays, many travelers begin to plan winter and early spring trips. Traveling by car around Europe, as well as short tourist trips for a few days, remain especially popular.

Preparation for such trips usually includes costs for tours, insurance, and tickets. However, the advantage of the period is that you can save significantly during the holidays if you follow a few useful tips:

- Check seasonal discounts

Many travel services launch special winter offers on tours, insurance, tickets and related services. By regularly checking current offers, you can find favorable conditions, receive bonuses or additional services at no additional cost.

- Plan in advance

Early booking of accommodation, tours or insurance helps to fix favorable rates and avoid price increases at the height of the season. In addition, it gives more time to choose the optimal route and additional services, such as transfers or excursions.

- Compare services

Use several platforms to search for tours, book accommodation and insurance. This allows you to find the most favorable conditions, as well as check for additional bonuses or promotions that can be combined for even greater savings.

- Keep an eye out for promotions and special offers

Holiday periods – especially New Year and Christmas holidays – are often accompanied by bonuses and promotional codes from travel platforms. Timely use of such offers helps to significantly reduce travel costs or purchase additional services at a favorable price.

In particular, until January 20, the Visit Ukraine platform has New Year promotional offers that may be useful for those planning trips in the near future:

- Tours: promo code – XMASTOUR, discount -15%;

- Green card: promo code – XMASGREEN, discount -12%;

- Autocivilka (OSCPV): promo code – XMASAUTO, discount -12%;

Such opportunities are especially relevant for travelers who want to prepare for a trip in advance and fix favorable conditions in the winter period.

How to choose gifts for loved ones?

Winter is a holiday season, so the question often arises of what to give to loved ones or friends, especially if it is difficult to guess their tastes or plans.

In such cases, gift certificates or cash vouchers are an excellent solution. They allow the recipient to choose what to spend the gift on - whether it is tour services, insurance, accessories or other services. Such certificates combine practicality and freedom of choice, and also make the gift appropriate in any situation.

Tip! Use current certificates from Visit Ukraine and promotional codes to make the gift even more profitable and versatile, choose your gift denomination:

- Certificate for 50 euros - a pleasant compliment and attention that will please the recipient.

- Certificate for 100 euros - a full-fledged gift that allows you to choose a tour, accessories or additional services.

- A certificate for 250 euros is a premium gesture for the closest or important partners, which provides maximum freedom of choice.

Merch is the best Christmas gift for those who have everything

Clothes have long ceased to be just fabric - they are a way of expressing your views and style. Embroidered hoodies, a T-shirt with a patriotic print or stylish accessories from Visit Ukraine Shop are the perfect option for those who value not only the quality, but also the meaning of the gift.

Why is merch a great choice of holiday gifts?

- Versatility is a gift that is suitable for both everyday life and special occasions.

- Symbolism - each thing carries the code of Ukrainian identity and resilience, making the gift meaningful and special.
