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.
DAY ONE: ARRIVAL TO LAPLAND
Embark on a magical journey as our honorary elves will meet and greet you at Dublin airport, ready to guide you through a truly enchanting adventure. Brace yourself for a flight to Kittila Airport, located just beyond the Arctic Circle, where the Christmas spirit thrives. Flying time will be around 3 hours.
During the flight, enjoy breakfast while we soar through the wintry skies and who knows, we might even get some merry surprises on board to add to the joyous atmosphere.
Upon our arrival at Kittila Airport, you'll receive complimentary thermal clothing to ensure you stay snug and cosy throughout your stay. Thermal snowsuits, boots, socks, gloves, and a warm hat will be given to you, ensuring that you remain warm in the midst of Lapland. Once geared up, more cheerful elves will whisk you away on a short journey to your hotel, home for the next two nights.
The afternoon is yours to bask in the magic of this extraordinary place.
As evening falls, relish in the heart-warming ambience as you gather with your family and newfound friends to indulge in a nice meal.
Meals included: breakfast and dinner
DAY TWO: SEARCH FOR SANTA
After awakening to a delightful breakfast, prepare yourselves for a day filled with enchantments. Santa's special helpers eagerly await your presence as we embark on a merry quest to find Santa's secret hiding place. Our jolly elves will rely on your keen eyes and joyful spirits to assist them in this spirited adventure. We'll journey deep into the mystical forest, where the magic of Christmas thrives.
At elf school, you'll discover the joy and importance of being an elf, followed by a guided tour of their cosy home. They'll share merry tales and who knows, they might just invite you to lend a hand in the bustling toy factory. Behold the diligent elves at work in the lively post office sorting letters from children all around the world, and with a dash of luck, we might just be granted a private meeting with Santa himself!
Along our whimsical path, we'll encounter Rudolph's friendly companions. To add to the excitement, you'll be invited to snuggle up in their sleigh as they take you on a gentle sleigh ride. And that's not all - prepare for a short and speedy ride as you glide through the snow-covered forest on a husky ride. We'll also embark on a snowmobile ride and engage in tobogganing and some snow fun.
During the day we'll take a pause from our activities to replenish our energy with a comforting lunch. As the afternoon descends upon us, we'll return to our hotel, allowing you to bask in the enchanting atmosphere and enjoy a festive dinner.
