Your day starts with your check-in at your local airport for your 3-hour flight to Lapland...
Upon arrival at the official airport of Santa Claus, having cleared passport control and customs, you will be met by your local guides in traditional Lappish costume to assist you to your designated coach and help you in collecting your thermal outfit (overalls, winter shoes, scarves, socks and gloves will be provided) for the duration of your stay in Lapland.
As soon as you get your thermal outfit organised, your elf guide will be waiting to transfer you to Santa's Winter Wonderland, which is reserved exclusively for United Travel guests, located around 30 minutes distance.
At Santa's Winter Wonderland, you will be welcomed by the sound of your favourite Christmas carols, which are played all over this magical playground. Keep yourself and your party warm with warm berry juice and ginger bread served beside the fi replace during the stay. Here, you will have the opportunity to take part and experience some of the exclusively organised Winter Activities such as:
Join the fun in Reindeer driving, experience traditional reindeer herders' way of travelling. Upon completion of your reindeer driving, your local elf guide will issue you with a special reindeer driving license.
Why not try the most favourite winter activity of Santa? Sliding down the hill with snow sliders.
For sure one of the highlights of your visit to this magical place is a short snowmobile ride together with all the family through the beautiful snow-covered Lappish scenery.
Fun drive for children and adults on mini skidoos with the help of Santa's elves.

A sledge pulled by husky dogs gives a taste of these lovely arctic animals.
Feel the spirit of Christmas. As you wait for your turn to meet Santa Claus personally you will be taught how to greet him in his native language. Each family will meet Santa privately. A small token will be given personally by Santa to remind you of the moment spent with him in his cabin.

Mrs. Claus has baked delicious ginger bread and is helping children to decorate their own ginger bread.Soon, you will bid farewell to Santa's Winter Wonderland and continue your journey to Santa's Village, where you will have the opportunity to do some Christmas souvenir shopping.
