Lapland, Finland (Image: Roberto Moiola / Getty)

Lapland has long been a magical destination for families at Christmas.

It is the only place where children can meet Father Christmas and go reindeer
sledding, then seek out the Northern Lights at night all in 24 hours.

However, it is not always so budget friendly with holiday packages often costing
thousands of pounds for families.

But if you are looking for a holiday for 2022 then the good news is that
packages are already available, and getting in early might take the edge off the
sum.


WHERE TO GO IN LAPLAND

Lapland actually refers to Finland's northernmost region which borders Sweden,
Norway and Russia.

in a night



Rovaniemi is the most popular holiday destination and the capital of Lapland,
and where families flock in hope of meeting Father Christmas.

Situated around four miles south of the Arctic circle and known as the hometown
of Santa Claus, Rovaniemi is the best place to go in Lapland for a magical
winter holiday.

We have rounded up the best packages and flights to help you along.


LAPLAND HOLIDAY PACKAGES

Santa’s Lapland has two packages available; Santa’s Magic starting at £1199 and
Santa’s Aurora starting at £1,499, with reduced rates available for children.

The Santa’s Magic package is a three to four day trip with a few hotel options
on offer.

Included in the price is flights and airport transfers, accommodation, thermal
clothing, a sleigh ride, husky and reindeer sled rides, a meeting with Santa and
his elves and snow and ice fun activities like ice fishing and snow hockey.

The Santa’s Aurora is similar but with better accommodation, a Wilderness
dinner, and a snowmobile to drive yourselves.

Santa’s Lapland also has a dedicated offers page .

First Choice has Lapland holidays from £880pp based on a family of four in
December 2022. There are also day trips available from £51 if you want to visit
Lapland as part of a wider holiday.

Inghams offers Santa breaks from £949pp which include a private meeting with
Santa, games with the elves, a festive feast for guests and optional extras such
as husky sledding excursions.

A cheaper way of doing the infamously expensive trip to Lapland might be sorting
each element individually, meaning flights, hotel and activities, rather than
taking a package trip.


AIRLINES FLYING TO LAPLAND

Easyjet has direct flights to Rovaniemi next winter from £138.99.
