Itinerary

Day 1

Rovaniemi

Welcome to Lapland and the beginning of an exciting trip. Upon arrival at Rovaniemi Airport you'll be met and transferred to your hotel. This evening why not step outside in the hope of seeing the elusive but magnificent Northern Lights. Being close to the arctic circle gives you a great chance of spotting them, provided the weather is clear and the conditions are right.
Overnight: Rovaniemi

Day 2

Husky Sledging

An exhilarating morning awaits as we head to a husky farm. After an introduction to the excitable but well trained arctic dogs, we'll jump on our sledges and be whisked across the pristine winter forest close to the Arctic Circle. Each sled will have 2 riders who will take it in turns to control the reins. Passing through beautiful scenery we'll witness the power of these incredible animals before we return to their home where we have the opportunity to learn more about the life of a husky and enjoy a hot drink to warm us up. The rest of the day is at leisure.
Overnight: Rovaniemi  |  Breakfast

Day 3

Optional Northern Lights Lake Floating

Today offers free time to explore Rovaniemi at your own pace before the option to embark on a unique experience later in the day. This evening you'll be offered the option to head to a frozen lake, where, after getting wrapped up in a thick rescue suit, you'll ease in and enjoy a relaxing float. Whilst it might sound a little bizarre, the high quality rescue suit will keep off the cold and let your mind rest as you relax under the nights sky, with the right conditions we'll hopefully have a mystical display from the Northern Lights.
Overnight: Rovaniemi  |  Breakfast

Day 4

Snowmobile Safari and Reindeer Farm

Get ready for an exhilarating day as we jump on snowmobiles and take off into the Arctic wilderness and head for a reindeer farm. Your guide will take you through backwoods, past frozen trees and down tracks that lead to stunning natural landscapes. At the reindeer farm we'll get to interact and learn about Santa's flying friends before enjoying a short sleigh ride close to the farm. After returning to the farm we'll enjoy some warm drinks and take part in a lappish Arctic Circle ceremony housed inside a traditional tepee.

Returning to Rovaniemi, the rest of the day is at leisure.
Overnight: Rovaniemi  |  Breakfast
