Itinerary:

Day 1
The children will love being greeted at Ivalo airport by a reindeer and one of Santa's elves!

A short and comfortable 25 minute transfer to your cosy chalet in Saariselka.

Time for your 'Michelin-man' impersonations, as we get you fitted with your special complimentary thermal over-suits and boots.

Fun-time - a chance to explore, make snowmen, or just relax in a fragrant Finnish sauna.

For chalet guests and hotel guests on our full-board option,a wonderful first night dinner to set the scene for tomorrow’s excitement!

Day 2
We will pick you up from your doorstep for the ultimate Christmas adventure, enjoying all the following exciting activities throughout the day, all of which are included in our prices.

Reindeer sleigh ride - meet your reindeer and learn their names, then take a wonderful ride into the picturesque woods, with the children cuddled under blankets on your knee.

Husky sled ride - Husky Sled Ride, where the children get to ride with a parent (and shout ‘mush mush!’ at every opportunity!), and grown-ups can all take a turn at actually ‘driving’ your own sled! Imagine your sled, drawn by five or six eager huskies, straining at the leash and desperate to run, then released and you’re off on a thrilling 20-30 minute adventure, racing through the snow-covered woods - the perfect way to experience Lapland’s winter wonderland.

Lunch is also included to 'recharge your batteries' for the afternoon. This will be a simple 2-course meal with separate options for the children and plenty of hot berry juice, squash, tea and coffee available.

A host of snow and ice activities to enjoy such as ice fishing, snowhockey, kick-sledding (a crazy cross between a scooter and a toboggan!), tandem skiing, mini skidoo rides for the children, tobogganing and snow sculpture – a chance for all budding artists to convert a large block of compact snow into a work of art.

See your children's faces light up with wonder, as you fulfil you 'search for Santa, and meet Santa Claus himself in his hideaway log-cabin home, with all his helper on hand to make you welcome and ensure that there is magic in the air.

Refreshments are included too and are available indoors throughout the day, for those times when a few minutes warming up is welcomed. to a chorus of fond farewells.

Finally, back ‘home’ in your hotel or chalet, sit down as a family and enjoy a
wonderful Gala Dinner (optional in hotels), and re-live every unforgettable moment of your biggest ever Christmas adventure!


Day 3
Fun-time again, with the chance to thrill to another big adventure, whether pre-booked in the UK or chosen the night before from our ‘Optional Adventures’. You may have fallen in love with the huskies and want to enjoy the sled ride again, or perhaps experience skiing or snowmobiling - there are plenty of options to choose from. Take a reindeer sleigh-ride into the picturesque woods.

If you’ve booked our full-board option, a light packed lunch will be provided from your hotel or chalet to be eaten at your convenience. This allows you to make the most of your last morning in Saariselkä, whether for activities or simply to browse the village’s souvenir shops selling traditional Lappish items and Christmas gifts.

We will collect you from your doorstep by coach and take you to the airport to catch your flight home, to a chorus of fond farewells.

Our comments:

As much fun for the adults as the children.

Private family meeting with Santa in his log cabin in the woods.

Charming, unspoilt location, not commercialised as other trip locations.

One of Laplands most northernmost resorts, giving you the very best chance to see the magical Northern Lights.

Great choice of activities.
