Visit Lapland – a magical place of Arctic landscapes and snow-dusted woodlands – on this eight-day adventure through northern Finland. Strap on your hiking boots and crunch a path through Finland’s taigas, experience the rush of a real dogsled, then get cosy with the locals over a glass of salmari. From the docks of Helsinki to remote Yllastunturi and Santa’s workshop in Rovaniemi, witness a part of the world where Christmas always feels close.
Embark on a magical journey through Finland, starting with your arrival in Helsinki. Explore the vibrant city, its stunning islands, and lush urban areas on a Panorama tour, visiting landmarks such as City Hall, Parliament buildings, and the Temppeliaukio Church. Travel overnight on the Santa Claus Express to Rovaniemi, the capital of Finnish Lapland. Here, dive into the enchanting world of Lapland with visits to Santa Claus Village, a reindeer sled ride, and a traditional Arctic Circle crossing ceremony. Discover the husky farm and enjoy a mini husky safari before exploring the Ranua Wildlife Park, home to Arctic animals including polar bears. A free day allows for optional activities such as visiting the Arktikum Museum or enjoying the scenic winter landscapes. The tour culminates with a night in a heated glass igloo, offering a chance to view the Northern Lights. Your journey ends with a flight back home from Rovaniemi.
