  • Climate:In December, temperatures in Lapland normally range between -7°c and -35°c. Snowfall can be heavy at this time. Daylight is limited to between 10.30 and 14.00, with long periods of twilight either side of night.
  • Clothing: Whilst thermal suits and boots are provided free for the duration of your stay, you are advised to bring layers of thermal and fleeced clothing to wear underneath when you are outdoors. Several layers of clothing provide better insulation from the cold than one or two thick items. Balaclavas, face masks and extra warm headgear are also suggested. The heating in hotels and Catered Christmas Cabins is extremely efficient so lighter clothing is required indoors.
  • Customer Exclusive: Little Skiersare offering exclusive 4 piece base layer thermal sets, discounted by 15%, for the whole family, which are ideal for trips to Lapland. In addition, exclusive to Esprit Ski and Santa’s Lapland customers, they are offering fantastic discounts of up to 20% for any extras needed.SILVER– spend £50 & get 15% off using ESPRITSILVERGOLD – spend £150 & get 20% off using ESPRITGOLD

3 Day Breaks » 4 Day Breaks »
  • A Meeting with Santa (me) in my secret log-cabin home in the woods. I guarantee a private meeting for every family and not a meeting in a restaurant with a coach-load of other families.
  • My Elves & Igloo Fantasia I want to tell you about a very special Santa Secret. I have had my helpers build, just for you, two enchanting Igloos, hidden in the forest and never before seen by anyone.
  • Reindeer sleigh-rideI offer a proper 7-10 minute ride through the snowy winter woods, not a 2-minute ‘taster’ ride going around and around a small looped track.
  • Husky-sled-ride. My unforgettable ride is approx. 15-minutes and is not a 2-minute ‘taster’ ride, being driven around a short circular route.
  • Snowmobile sleigh ride When you come to visit me, everyone gets to ride behind a snowmobile during our ‘Search for Santa’, and mini skidoos are available for the children.
  • The resort experience I believe in the true spirit of a Lapland Christmas, with our full-length activities held in magical woodland wilderness locations. I am not so keen on commercialised centres where you may end up killing time in charmless gift-shops and grottos!
  • Places to stay I have chosen three and four-diamond hotels with excellent facilities and food, and also my own Santa’s Christmas Cabins. Beware of others that offer one or two-star business-style hotels.
  • Child Prices It is the children that really want to see me so I have thousands of FREE Child Places and many other magically low prices for them.
  • Travel arrangements Saariselkä is only 25 minutes from Ivalo Airport whereas other companies travel up to 2 hours by coach to and from the resort.
