Experience the snowy magic of Lapland on this special story time adventure.

Heading to The Snow Village in the middle of a frosty forest, you’ll meet all Santa’s helpers and friends, hearing stories and trying out activities like reindeer sleigh rides and snowshoeing; you’ll even meet the big man himself.

Arriving in Lapland around midday, you’ll journey to The Snow Village to begin this exclusive wintery adventure, where you’ll visit each of Santa’s friends.

A festive treat
You’ll have lunch at Mrs Claus’s log restaurant, with plenty of tasty treats to give you energy for the day’s fun activities.

Riding reindeer
You couldn’t visit Santa without popping in to say hello to Rudolph and his furry pals at Snow Village, you’ll take a sleigh driving lesson to get your very own licence, sit around the fire with local herders and hear the elves tell the story of Santa’s special sleigh-pulling reindeer.

At home with the huskies
You’ll meet Santa’s cute and fuzzy huskies and feel their speed as you drive a husky drawn sleigh. A real musher will teach you all about the dogs and explain how they’re trained and those adorable elves will tell the exciting story of how the huskies saved Christmas.

It’s snow fun
It’s time for family fun in the snow, sliding down the hill together, strapping on snowshoes and heading into the Christmassy forest and watching kids go mini-skidoo driving, with hot berry juice and gingerbread around the campfire to warm those little fingers and toes.

A little magic
A real treat, at the Snow Village you’ll meet a real Shaman, a traditional Lappish storyteller who will perform a special Arctic ceremony. One of the elves will also tell you how the shaman ended up being one of Santa’s helpers.

Meeting Santa
After finding your way to Santa’s secret cabin, the elves will teach you how to greet him in Finnish while you wait for your family’s own private meeting with him; with little children and big kids too receiving a special pressie from Santa: if you’ve been good of course!

Snowmobile ride
The elves’ favourite mode of transport, you’ll get to learn how to drive a snowmobile before taking a speedy ride through snow-covered forests and fields with your family.

Visit the Ice Hotel
With a whole hour to explore Lapland’s amazing Ice Hotel, you’ll be able to see the stunning snow architecture, frosted rooms and glass-like furniture of this sub-zero setting.

After a day filled with Arctic fun, you’ll have to leave Santa to prepare for his big night climbing down chimneys, taking with you fantastic festive memories.
