Meet Father Christmas in SAariselka


Posted: 17 November 2011
by Kate Donoughue

Where?The northern Lapp village of Saariselka.

Why go there?To really feel that festive spirit and visit the home of Father Christmas, of course!
Children will love...Rides on reindeer-pulled sleighs or snowmobiles, husky dog sledding and tobogganing, plus a meeting with Mr Claus himself.

Parents will love...The Winter Wonderland effect, as well as the skiing, the Northern Lights and the fascinating culture of the local Sami people.

Stay at… Santa’s Christmas Cabins, traditional log cabins set in the heart of Saariselka. A two-night Santa’s Lapland holiday costs from £2,306 for a family of four, including breakfast and dinner (with wine), flights, transfers, use of thermal clothing, a private meeting with Santa and activities.
