The BEST family getaways for New Year's Eve around the world
This family's experience:

Activities: We celebrated New Year's Eve in Urnäsch, participating in the Silvesterchläusen tradition, where men and children dress up in elaborate costumes and go from house to house singing and wishing people a Happy New Year

Highlights: The kids loved the colorful costumes and the unique tradition, and we appreciated the fact that the celebrations start early in the day, so we could participate with our young children ✨
