Visiting Santa between Christmas and New Year is just part of your short break. There is so much more included. From a Festive Dinner to a Search for Santa, from a Snowmobile Adventure to a Husky Experience, your three-night break is filled with wonderful, magical experiences. Here is a typical itinerary.

Day One
Your flight departs around 10am and at Enontekio Airport you are guided to your coach. The magical journey to Hetta takes around 15 minutes (or one hour to Karesuando). Watch out for Santa's reindeer in the woods. Your all-in-one thermal suits and boots collection will be organised by your representative. After checking in at your chosen accommodation, your representative hosts a welcome meeting and will answer any further questions during dinner.

Day Two
In the morning, after breakfast, you head out on your first safari - a magnificent Husky Experience. Throughout the day you can enjoy snow activities outside, with toboggans. Or there's plenty of family fun to be had making snowmen or enjoying a good old-fashioned snowball fight! Alternatively, you might opt to try one of our exciting optional excursions such as trying your hand at Reindeer Herding. Tonight you might join another of our optional night safaris.

Day Three
After breakfast, you will be joining your second included activitty - the Search for Santa day including the Snowmobile Adventure. If you're lucky, a chance to get up close to a friendly reindeer. Then, the highlight of the day when you board a reindeer sleigh and set off In Search of Father Christmas. During a private family meeting in his cabin, each child has the chance to talk with Santa now that he is back from his annual journey around the world. Each child receives a small gift. After a special Festive Dinner, relax, or join one of our optional night safaris.

Day Four
Check out after breakfast at 0900hrs. There should be time for one final play in the snow or to join one of our optional adventures. After a hot lunch, you depart for Enontekio and your flight home.

Please note: All constituent activities are included. However, exact itineraries vary depending upon your choice of resort.

As well as your included activities, there's a whole programme of optional excursions for you to choose from. These are available for you to add when you book - whether online or over the phone.

Further Information

• All excursions include expert guides, equipment and all necessary instruction. On our Northern Lights night safaris, we search for the best viewpoints rather than aim to cover a specific distance.
• On all safaris, unless a supplement is paid to secure a single rider, you may be required to share with another person from the group. All prices are per person. All distances and durations are approximate and subject to weather conditions and route on the day.
• All excursions are subject to minimum numbers and local conditions and are non-refundable. However, you will be automatically refunded the full price paid for your excursion if it doesn't go ahead due to operational reasons.
• *All Snowmobile activities carry a €550 damage deposit which is payable locally. A valid driving license must be shown upon arrival.** The ability to drive and control a husky team on longer safaris is determined by physical attributes. Normally, anybody over the age of 18 should be able to handle a dog team comfortably.
