Santa's Lapland

A Christmas Like No Other - 2026 & 2027 On Sale Now!

Imagine snowy forests, husky sled rides, reindeer, tobogganing and the excitement of searching through the Arctic wilderness for Santa himself.

Santa’s Lapland holidays take families more than 250km above the Arctic Circle to Saariselkä in northern Finland, where the snow-covered landscape becomes one enormous Christmas adventure.

Choose from 2 or 3-night Santa’s Magic and Santa’s Aurora breaks, with return flights, transfers, accommodation, thermal clothing and unforgettable Lapland experiences included.

And the biggest moment of all? Every family gets their own private meeting with Santa. 

Why choose Santa’s Lapland?

The complete Lapland experience
Flights, transfers, half-board accommodation and activities are included, with lunch and refreshments also provided on Search for Santa day.

An authentic Arctic setting
Saariselkä is a small resort in the far north of Finland, more than 250km above the Arctic Circle. It feels wonderfully remote rather than overly commercialised.

Over 20 years of Lapland experience
Santa’s Lapland has been creating festive family adventures for more than two decades.

Activities without the queues
Their exclusive activity centres operate on a free-flow basis, so families can enjoy activities at their own pace rather than spending their day following a rigid timetable.

Thermal clothing included
Warm snowsuits, boots, gloves and woollen socks are provided, ready for those proper Arctic temperatures.

A snow guarantee
If Santa’s Lapland decides there isn’t enough snow for the experience to operate properly, customers can move their holiday to another date within the same season or receive a full refund.

Great for the whole family
Trips are particularly suited to families with children aged 2-13 and work brilliantly for multi-generational family holidays too.

Choose your Lapland Break

At Santa's Lapland, there are two types of break to choose between; Santa's Magic & Santa's Aurora! Both lead to a private family meeting with Santa... with activities in-between! 

Here are some more details to help you choose between the two!

Santa’s Magic

The classic Santa’s Lapland experience

Santa's Aurora

The premium Santa’s Lapland experience

Santa’s Aurora gives families a more premium Arctic escape, based at the Santa’s Star Arctic Hotel, in a fantastic elevated location for spotting the Northern Lights.

The package includes return flights and transfers, thermal clothing, support from the resort team and the Santa pre-departure pack.

But there are also some extra experiences built in.

Your first Arctic adventure

On your first evening, head out on a reindeer sleigh ride before enjoying a Wilderness Dinner inside a traditional Lappish Kota.

Search for Santa

Your Search for Santa takes place at the exclusive Aurora Activity Centre, with:

• A 5km husky sled ride
• The Enchanted Trail
• An interactive visit to Santa’s Elves Workshop
• A snowmobile-sleigh Search for Santa
• A private family meeting with Santa and a special gift for every child
• Mini skidoos
• Snow hockey
• Tandem skiing
• Tobogganing
• Kick sledding

Again, everything operates on a free-flow basis, so families can explore without being marched around on a timetable.

One last Arctic adventure

On the final morning, families head out on a Snowmobile Safari through the Arctic landscape before beginning the journey home.
