What you'll do

Overview

Embark on an amazing adventure in Lapland. Visit a Husky Farm and enjoy a sledge pulled safari, get the chance to see the Northern Lights as well as touring the snow covered landscape by snow mobile.

Your trip will start with a transfer from Rovaniemi airport to your accommodation at Santa’s Hotel Aurora in Luosto. You will have the chance to relax before starting this unique Lapland family holiday the next day.

You will visit a Husky farm and learn all about the use of huskies in Finland. Not only will you be able to play with the adorable pups but you will then get the chance to go on a safari in a sledge pulled by huskies through the snow covered forest.

You’ll also get to explore the area by getting a little further afield on snowmobiles, drinking in the incredible scenery that is so far removed from what we’re used to at home. Gliding through the impossibly still forest and the crisp, clear Lapland air is exhilarating, and you’ll come across some of the most beautiful natural landscapes anywhere in Finland.

You will also get the chance to see the breathtaking Northern Lights with a local guide who will take you to the best spot so see this natural phenomenon.
