Heavenly Peace itinerary

Your dogs are eager for the off! Huskies are at their happiest when there is an adventure before them. You decide who is going to be the musher, guiding the team of dogs. In each sled, one additional person (or two small children) settles down to enjoy the ride. And then you're off on a journey, part of your 40-minute Husky Experience, through the wilderness, taking you out of sight of civilisation, where the trees bow under their burden of snow and the distant fells look mysterious in the half-light.

Your Husky Experience is a highlight of your four-night break with Transun. But there is so much more. From a Snomobile Adventure to a Search for Santa, from Supervised Snow Fun to a Festive Dinner, your short break is filled with magical experiences. Here is a typical itinerary.

Day One

After a festive flight, you land in Enontekio in Finland and are guided to your coach. The journey (15 minutes to our hotels in Hetta or one hour to the Davvi Arctic Lodge in Karesuando) takes you through the heart of the Sami lands. We stop to collect your all-in-one thermal suits and boots. After checking in at your hotel, your Transun rep hosts a welcome meeting and during a welcome dinner, your rep will answer any further questions. Tonight, you can join one of our optional activities, such as a Northern Lights safari by snowmobile.

Day Two

After breakfast, you will head out on your first safari - either a 40-minute Husky Experience or a 1.5-hour Snowmobile Adventure, followed by a warming buffet lunch at the hotel. Throughout the day you can enjoy snow activities outside, with toboggans available free and kick sledges upon payment of a deposit. This afternoon, you can join one of our optional excursions, perhaps Reindeer Herding or head out for some more snow fun. After dinner, relax or join an optional activity.

Day Three

You'll experience your second safari after breakfast, either a 40-minute Husky Experience or a 1.5-hour Snowmobile Adventure. And you can head outside for more snow fun. This evening, join a walk to the local church. After a welcome by the vicar and carols, return to the hotel for dinner. Then perhaps join one of our optional night safaris.

Day Four

After breakfast, you head outside for our Supervised Snow Fun, a day of activities that include a Snowshoe Trek, Snowball Throwing Contest, Tandem Skis and Children's Skis, Snowman Building, Tug-of-War, Snow Hockey and lots more! In addition, there will be a supervised kids' snowmobile ride. Lunch will be at your hotel, with hot drinks available throughout the day. Afterwards, you might want to join in the indoor Christmas crafts. Or, relax indoors. Then, the highlight of the day, when you board a reindeer sleigh In Search of Father Christmas. During a private family meeting in his cabin, each child has the chance to talk with Santa and receives a small gift. This evening, enjoy a Festive Dinner. Afterwards, why not join an optional safari?

Day Five

Check out after breakfast. Then set off on one final adventure, a Wilderness Treasure Hunt! Alternatively, you have time for one last play in the snow or you could join another optional excursion. After lunch at the hotel, depart for Enontekio and your flight home.
