If there is a better way to get into the festive spirit than paying a visit to Father Christmas himself in Finnish Lapland, we can't think of it. This luxury, family-friendly Big Short Break to Finnish Lapland is the perfect way to kick off the Christmas holidays in style.

Itinerary

100% customisable for you

After a morning of ice fishing, you will be taken to visit Father Christmas by horse-drawn carriage. The elves will meet you and guide you to Elf School to make some delicious ginger biscuits and Christmas decorations - the big man's favourites. Biscuits in hand, you will make your way to his office for a private meeting guaranteed to keep the magic alive for any doubters. Your audience with St Nick is private, so we can arrange for the children's letters, and wish lists, to be waiting for them when you arrive. The most impeccably behaved children (and adults) will get then receive a few early presents from Father Christmas, before you make your way back to your lodge for one final night. If you caught anything on the fishing trip - there are plenty of perch and arctic char in the waters around Lapland - the chef at your lodge will cook it up for your supper, which will include plenty of traditional Finnish dishes.
