New Year is rushing towards us, and before you have time to look back, it will knock on your door. And if you still do not know how to celebrate the most long-awaited winter holiday, the online booking and payment service for travel services VETLIVA is ready to share its ideas with you. And if you like any option — call the short number 7172, and we will be happy to organize the best vacation for you!

Celebrating at home

New Year with the dearest and nearest is undoubtedly one of the best ideas in the era of a pandemic. It is so wonderful to enjoy the warm and cozy home atmosphere, the scent of tangerines, and the leisurely play of the lights of the garland on the Christmas tree to the accompaniment of heartfelt conversations and traditional New Year’s movies on TV. Do you want a couple of ideas from VETLIVA on how to organize a holiday so that no one gets bored? We are always ready to help you!

  1. “What’s in the box?”. Show your imagination! Put in a beautifully decorated box the funniest items of clothing you can find at home or you can whip up yourself, such as glasses with a nose, large family pants with hearts, a fun bra made from half coconuts, or any other item. Each guest will pull things out of the box at random and the main condition will be to spend the whole New Year’s Eve in a given item of clothing. Imagine how hilarious the holiday photos will be!
  1. “Crocodile”. If you don’t want to bother with the entourage or don’t have time, you can play Crocodile, the essence of which is to explain different words and concepts to guests. And remember that the more difficult the word you guess, the more fun it will be to solve it!
  2. “Caterpillar”. What a feast without outdoor games, in order to properly settle everything eaten! You can play the “Caterpillar”, the principle of which is clear already from the name itself. All family members and guests sit on their haunches and, holding each other, carry out the tasks of the presenter: “The caterpillar woke up, stretched, decided to eat, dances to your favorite song …”. And to make it more fun, put the main fidget in the family in the tail of the caterpillar.

VETLIVA advises: a huge number of competitions, entertainment, games, and shows have been prepared by the specialists of Belarusian health resorts. We recommend celebrating the New Year with the whole family in the health resorts: there you will get a million ideas for organizing holidays at home.

Going out

Perhaps you will not want to sit at home all night, and sooner or later you will want to go out in public. Why not! Moreover, Minsk and all other cities of Belarus are wonderful in festive decoration. Take a few photos with the background of New Year’s installations and enjoy the colorful fireworks, because most people have strategic reserves of pyrotechnics prepared almost from the summer! And, of course, do not forget to light up bright sparklers, because the street is the most suitable place for them.

VETLIVA recommends: if it seems to you that you have already seen everything in your hometown, then you can arrange a mini-vacation for yourself in other regional centers, where you have not been able to visit yet. And we will be happy to help you not to be left without a roof over your head: choose the right offer and book your stay.

Going on a journey

And yet, the New Year is such a holiday that you want to spend not only in the company of your dearest and nearest but also in a place where you don’t have to worry about endless cooking and cleaning. Therefore, we will tell you about some cool options for relaxing away from everyday worries:

  1. New Year’s Adventures in National Parks. To visit Grandfather Frost and see bison, elk, and deer in Belovezhskaya Pushcha, go to the very heart of the Berezinsky Reserve and relax surrounded by beautiful nature, go ice skating and capture ice-bound lakes Naroch and Braslav or celebrate authentic Kolyady in the Pripyat National Park.
  2. Rest at ski resorts. We are not talking about Switzerland but about our relatives Silichi, Raubichi, and Logoisk! However, if you want a real extreme, then welcome to Krasnaya Polyana, located in Sochi.
  3. The seaside awaits! Celebrating the New Year with a Belarusian flavor, but at the same time by the sea is also possible. If you are interested in how to do it, call us on the short number 7172, and we will tell you about everything in detail!
