“Vacation” is an American term, in the UK, we usually use “holiday”
In the US, I think that a vacation is a long period (approximately a couple of weeks) of time off school/work where you can choose to go travelling, e.g. summer vacation whereas a holiday is a specific day of celebration or a small number of days e.g. Thanksgiving or independence day where you might get a day or a few days off. I’m really sorry if that’s incorrect, please can any Americans correct me :’)

Obviously wrong
Explanation is not enough
Written in a language I can't understand
Answer is not related to the question
Other reason
One could say "I'm going on vacation to see my friends for the holiday."
Where I grew up we referred to the long school breaks as 'vacations' (summer vacation, winter vacation, etc). One can also go on 'a vacation' like 'a holiday', vacations are usually longer, maybe 5+ days. Note that in the US we say 'a holiday' unlike in the UK where the 'a' is dropped. A holiday can also be a specific day or days; 4th of July and Christmas are two examples and are usually paid federal holidays (equivalent to UK bank holidays).
