Arctic Legends 3 day trip to Lapland

Legends 3 day Short Break to Lapland

The Legends short break to Lapland is based in an area of pristine snowscapes, the perfect location for your Christmas Lapland holiday.  Elves and reindeer are known to have been seen in this area of Lapland so this is a good place to start your search for Santa Claus.

You will venture out into the snowy forest, board a reindeer sleigh and set off in search of Father Christmas hoping to find the traditional log cabin known to be his hideaway.  If you and your family are lucky enough to find the elusive old man, you will have the chance for a private meeting in his cabin, where Santa is sure to have time to talk to each child individually about their Christmas wishes.

The thrill of a husky safari.... A team of huskies awaits and you will enjoy an exhilarating 40 minutes Husky experience

An exhilarating snowmobile safari.... The fastest of your included safaris is the snowmobile adventure. You will experience a one  hour safari on these remarkable machines, including instruction and stoppages.  Adults will have the chance to drive their own (with passenger)  Children will be pulled in a sleigh pulled by one of the snowmobiles.

Tobogganing and snow fun.... Of course, you will also get plenty of time to enjoy playing in the snow!  There will be various activities including tobogganing, kick-sledging, children's snowmobiles and tandem skiing.  You could also have a go at traditional Lappish lasso-throwing or what about a good old fashioned snowball fight!  

On the last night of your stay a delicious festive dinner will be served for you to enjoy with your new found friends.
