Christmas at Luosto 5 day trip to Lapland

The chance for a privileged few to come to Lapland in search of Father Christmas, his reindeer and elves. This tour is where dreams can become a reality. Children will encounter magical moments as they seek out Father Christmas. There'll be the chance to go sledging, enojy reindeer and husky rides and trips by motorised snow scooters. One thing is for sure, you will find Santa Claus during your visit, and the elves will ensure a gift for each and every child. As Santa is very busy during December supervising the despatch of toys worldwide by reindeer, you're assured of a true adventure as you search through the wilderness for a special Christmas time encounter in Lapland, home of Father Christmas.

 Day 1 in Lapland (23rd December)

Following your arrival in Lapland one transfers to Luosto where you will be accommodated in your log cabin or hotel. Evening dinner, overgarments and boots will also be allocated this evening.

Day 2 in Lapland (24th December)

Will today be the day you find Santa? You adventure is planned for today using a combination of skidoo, husky dogs and reindeer. It is to be hoped that Donner and Blitzen will give your scouts advice as to Santa's location but fear not, if you do not find him today you are sure to track him down on Christmas day when he returns from his world-wide task.

Lunch will be taken at an outside venue. This evening back at Luosto dinner will be served. This will be a superb Finnish Traditional Christmas buffet.

Day 3 in Lapland (Christmas Day)

An open air Christmas Church service will be held at Luosto early in the morning illuminated by ice lanterns and log torches. After the service you will have a hearty breakfast before continuing your search for Santa.

This will be a unique chance for children to receive a present and to meet Santa on Christmas day, the very day by tradition that he delivers gifts to all homes throughout the land. Skidoos, reindeer and huskies will once again be used and an outside lunch provided in an appropriate location. Tonight you will enjoy a typical Festive spread. The meal is enhanced with traditional favourites like mince pies, stilton, Christmas cake and Christmas pudding.

Day 4 in Lapland (26th December)

A relaxing day is planned for today. You may choose to go skiing (either slalom or cross country) or to visit a nearby activity centre building where a range of activities will be provided in a very relaxed manner. Activities here will include skidoo slalom competitions, tobogganing and mini ice competitions. Yes one of these competitions could even be the chance to light a fire in the Arctic.

Once again a typical outdoor meal will be served. Lunch is only available at the activity centre. This evening enjoy a farewell dinner recounting the day's experiences to your new-found friends.

 Day 5 in Lapland (27th December)
