Where will your group be celebrating the holidays this year? We invite you to visit Christmas City!
Almost every town in Germany hosts a Christmas Market and so does Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, where white lights line the cobbled streets for a full month, a tradition that dates back hundreds of years.
The market air is filled with the scent of cinnamon and pine as you search for those perfect gifts for special friends. You will find handmade ornaments, special one-of-a-kind gifts, toys, nutcrackers, and so much more.
There’s something exciting going on in Bethlehem, PA every day of the year!
The Christmas City is Eastern Pennsylvania’s hot spot and it all begins with ArtsQuest. Whether your group is looking to explore the arts, history or culture of Bethlehem, we have the perfect itinerary for you. Click here to learn more (.PDF file).
Join the granddaughter of the legendary Maria and Baron von Trapp of “The Sound of Music” as she takes you on a musical journey from Bach to Broadway and Schubert to Sting, including performances of some of the most beloved holiday classics of all time.

Here's what people are saying about their trip to the Christmas City.
"We had four groups to Bethlehem at Christmastime in 2009. Everyone one was very pleased with their day. From the lunch, to the Moravian Christmas concert, to the festive Christkindelmarkt, each person loved their experience. Bethlehem by night with a local step-on guide is always a highlight. The Banana Factory staff was very helpful and each tour flowed just as planned. We would recommend Bethlehem to any group that is looking for a delightful day away at a memorable time of year."

"My group leader who was up there on December 12 said it was the best trip ever! She gave everything a 10 on our comment form!
They loved Hotel Bethlehem, the food was great and service was excellent! They enjoyed shopping at the Book store across the street and had a ball at Christkindlemarkt."
