Non-commercial holidays to Lapland
Far away from the bright lights and commercial ‘Santa Villages’, you will find magical, winter wonderland locations to be explored…
Stay in cosy log cabins, arctic igloos, wilderness lodges or Treehouse hotels. Or you might want a large, luxury ski style chalet in the forest, for a multi generational family or group of friends?
For many years, clients of Travel with Jules have enjoyed stress free holiday planning and tailored trips to take the family to meet Santa in his Arctic homelands!
Focusing on non-commercial Santa locations, contact me to create your own magical, Christmas dream holiday.
Below are just a handful of suggested places to stay, most of which can be booked as a protected package with small group departures and including flights, transfers, accommodation, meals and all excursions.
Typically, a three night package would include a taste of dog sledding, snowmobiling, Reindeer and Sami culture and of course meeting with Santa in a secret woodland setting!
- Escape the commercial crowds
- Experience the ‘real’ magical Lapland
- Private Santa visits
- Dog-sledding and meet the Huskies (& their pups!)
- Sami culture and reindeers
- Fun in the snow!
