Santa's On His Way itinerary
Imagine setting out with your children in search of the real Father Christmas in the snow-filled realms of Lapland! It is an experience that will live in their memories forever. The setting is a winter wonderland, on the edge of Europe's last great wilderness. It's magical, of course ... why else would Santa make his home here? You start out on snowmobiles, then in the quiet forest, you transfer to a reindeer sleigh. Perhaps an elf will appear, to help you look for clues. Then suddenly, you glimpse a golden glow from a lonely log cabin! Is this Santa's secret hideaway? Will you dare knock and enter?
Your search for Santa is the highlight of your two-night break with Transun. But there is so much more included. From a Husky Experience to a Snowmobile Adventure, from seldging to snowman making, from Supervised Snow Fun to a Festive Dinner, your short break is filled with memorable 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. Watch out for reindeer in the woods! We stop to collect your all-in-one thermal suits and boots. After checking in at your hotel, your rep hosts a welcome meeting and during a welcome dinner, your Transun rep will answer questions.
Day Two
After breakfast, you head outside for 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! There will also be a supervised kids' snowmobile ride. Activities are available throughout the day. A warming lunch will be served in the hotel. Afterwards, you might want to join in the indoor Christmas crafts. Or, just relax indoors. Outside, if you're lucky, there may be some husky puppies to befriend, or 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 and receives a small gift.
Before dinner, join a walk to the local church. After a welcome by the local vicar and carols, you return to your hotel for a Festive Dinner. Afterwards, why not join us on an optional Northern Lights Husky Safari?
Day Three
Check out after breakfast, before joining your two included Santa safaris, a 40-minute Husky Experience and a 1.5-hour Snowmobile Adventure. Then, there's time for snow activities, with toboggans available free and kick sledges upon payment of a deposit. And there's plenty of family fun to be had making snowmen or enjoying snowball fights! Or you could try and optional excursions, perhaps Reindeer Herding. After lunch at the hotel, you set off by coach to Enontekio and your flight home.
