BOOK NOW

An activity-filled break to the snowy plains of Lapland, this trip takes in everything from husky and reindeer sleigh rides to lessons at Elf School and a meeting with a very merry Father Christmas.

Your morning flight to Rovaniemi will include a light breakfast served by cabin crew who might just be persuaded to lead a round of carol-singing.

On arrival at Rovaniemi airport – the official airport of Santa Claus you will be met by our elves who will guide you throughout your stay and help you search for Santa.

All guests will proceed to collect their thermal clothing and get fitted out with snow suits, boots, socks, hats, helmets and gloves.

All guests will proceed directly to the snowmobile activity before they go to their hotel. With this in mind we would advise you to keep anything you might need close to hand (i.e. If you are bringing your own gloves, hats, scarves etc.), or you may want to put on extra layers or have some snacks handy for the little ones. We would advise you to bring these in a small bag that can go on the coach with you so that you have easy access to what you need.

We will set off for a short 30 minute snowmobile safari through the snow covered forests. Adults will drive 2 persons per snowmobile and the children will travel in the sledges pulled by one of our guides.

After a long day we will head back to our hotels where you can enjoy a relaxing sauna and buffet dinner.

After a cheerful breakfast, your friendly elf guide will take you to meet the huskies and reindeer that will be accompanying you on the afternoon’s escapades. Learn about Santa’s furry friends and enjoy fleeting but thrilling sleigh rides. You’ll even receive a special reindeer license upon completion of your sleigh rides.

At the reindeer farm, you will experience the magical ceremony of crossing the Arctic Circle in a kota-tepee.

After a tasty hot lunch, the thrill of speedy tobogganing and the majestic Elf School in Joulukka awaits you. Here the excitable elves will be waiting to help you decorate your own festive gingerbread.

Now it’s finally time to venture off into the heart of the woods where Santa’s Christmas Command Centre lies, the perfect place to discover all of Santa’s secrets. Mr. Claus will then come to spend some time with each individual family and surprise children with a special token present. You will return to a farewell dinner that might just include a surprise appearance from the magical man himself.

After breakfast you will be taken to Santa Claus Village at the Arctic Circle, where you will have the chance to do some souvenir shopping and post a letter from Santa’s Post Office. Then, it’s time to leave for the airport and your contented journey home.
