December - Vienna or Prague?

[MummaT86]

Has anyone been to either around Christmas? Will be me, DH and DS (2). Looking to do some markets and just enjoy the festive spirit (and yes I know it will be cold!). Anyone recommend one over the other?

Prague is lovely however is insanely busy. I think you will struggle with a buggy in the touristy areas.
Pretty & festive tho.

I would avoid both with a little one. Beautiful but bitterly cold. Summer in Vienna is fantastic.

We went to Prague the first weekend of December a few years ago and LOVED it. One of my fave trips away

I’ve been to the Christmas markets in Vienna and it was beautiful. I didn’t find it crazy busy, but we went pre-kids so I may just have been oblivious. I still periodically have daydreams about an amazing baked potato filled with garlicky sour cream that I had there. The gluhwein will warm you up (hot chocolate for the toddler 😊)
