The Finnish Lapland holiday was fantastic from start to end. The activities were very well organised and accompanied by local guides to ensure that all went smoothly. Each day was was an experience not to be missed. The highlight of my stay had to be the magnificent show of the Northern Lights. The Inari Hotel is comfortable, the staff friendly and the food served was excellent.

day 1Join trip at our hotel in Inari

Our escape into the arctic wilderness begins in Inari, a village nestled in the heart of Finnish Lapland. Situated approximately 120 kilometres north of the Arctic Circle, this area has been inhabited for centuries by the indigenous Sami people. On the shores of Inari Lake, the third largest lake in Finland, the landscape of dense forests, rolling hills and frozen waterways is one of the most sparsely populated places in Europe. During winter months it is blanketed by snow and illuminated by the dancing aurora overhead. We'll be staying at Hotel Inari, owned by the Lappalainen family for over 40 years offering modern cosy rooms, authentic local food and of course the obligatory Finnish sauna to provide the perfect introduction to life in the north. If you would like to receive an airport transfer today, you'll need to arrive into Ivalo airport (IVL). The transfer shuttle, run by Ilmaris Slant Ky will be waiting in the dedicated bus parking area. The journey will take around 50 mins. Your leader will arrange a welcome briefing in reception for your first evening, this will be at approximately 7pm.
