Newcastle

Experience the Northern Lights from the North East

We offer a selection of departures from Newcastle Airport each winter, all operating on our exclusive charter flights to the far north of Lapland. Our Santa’s Lapland holidays to the Enontekio region in Finnish Lapland offer families the opportunity to create magical memories that will last for a lifetime: from mushing a team of husky sleds across the Arctic tundra to travelling on snowmobiles down a frozen river. Of course, no visit to Lapland would be complete without a visit to see Santa himself – you’ve travelled a long way to see him! But Lapland is for grown-ups too! Our collection of Arctic Spirit holidays take you deep into the Arctic Circle, where you will have some of the best chances of seeing the Northern Lights in the world, as well as experiencing a host of exhilarating Arctic activities. Why not stay a night in an igloo, too? Explore our range of tours departing from Newcastle this winter…
