Hear sleigh bells ring as you glide through a snowy meadow overlooking Lake Tahoe, or along a frozen path outside Salzburg, Austria, or through the chilly countryside near Levi, Finland, on a holiday sleigh ride. The winter wonderland tours are among holiday-themed activities suggested on the website Viator.com, which specializes in providing destination activities in 75 countries.

Among the other suggestions: a four-day holiday tour in Germany that visits the Christmas market in Leipzig and the Bavarian city of Bamberg; a New York City holiday lights tour; and a journey to a Finland reindeer farm. Info: www.viator.com.
