4 Day itinerary

 

snowmobile safaris at Hotel Jeris, LaplandDAY 1

A morning flight from London Gatwick to Kittilä. Private transfer to Hotel Jeris. During the evening collect safari clothing followed by a short welcome meeting. Dinner.

 

DAY 2

Following a buffet breakfast get dressed in the safari clothing provided and head out with your guides.

An action packed day of activity. Experience tandem skiing, a snowmobile driving lesson, ice fishing, kick sledging, cross country skiing and snow hockey.

If you can tear yourself away from the activities a hearty hot lunch will be served before it is back outside to receive snowmobile instruction from the experts. Once settled on snowmobiles and the children are tucked into the sleighs it is time to depart through the snow covered forest on a safari in search of Santa. Stop for a warming hot chocolate and pancakes before continuing your search for the candle lit trail left by the elves to a cabin where Santa will be resting but eager to meet you, one family at a time, to hear your Christmas wishes.

Free time in the afternoon for a warming sauna, taking a dip in the ice pool or a relaxing drink in the bar.

Dinner.

 

 

DAY 3

Buffet breakfast. Make the short transfer to the nearby husky farm where the husky teams will eagerly be awaiting your arrival. Once everyone has been given instruction they will be whisked off along the frozen trails by the teams of excited huskies on an exhilarating ride. A tour of the husky farm.

Return to the hotel for a warming lunch.

Strap on snow shoes and head into the forest following the clues to find the perfect Christmas tree left by the elves on which to hang your Christmas wish note. As a reward for your hard work you can warm by a forest fire, melting marshmallows, while your guide tells us about the surrounding nature.

Continue to the corral to meet a reindeer herder who will carry out an Arctic Circle Crossing ceremony, take you on a short reindeer sled ride and put you through your reindeer lassoing paces.

During your free time you may choose to toboggan or visit the spa for a soak in the hot pools, sauna or for the adventurous a dip in the lake! Others may just curl up in front of the fire. An opportunity for the children to bake Christmas cookies.

To round off your visit a traditional Finnish Christmas dinner and a very special guest with gifts for everyone!

 

 

DAY 4

Buffet breakfast. Optional safaris will be available for those that can’t bear to leave this winter wonderland without one last go of the unique winter activities.

Following lunch transfer to Kittila airport for the flight to London Gatwick.
