What's included in the Auld Land Syne Itinerary

 

ANOTHER YEAR BEGINS and it’s a time of celebration, renewal and excited expectation. So why not celebrate it deep inside the Arctic Circle, where the magic of Father Christmas’s special season still holds sway? After celebrating the arrival of the New Year in style, you will be able to venture out into the majestic snowscapes to enjoy a wide range of snow activities before setting out in search of the grand old man himself. Your New Year short break will be a wonderful opportunity to spend quality family time together in the exhilarating surrounds of this winter wonderland. Celebrating the New Year will be just part of your short break with Transun. There is so much more included. From a Husky Experience to a Search for Santa, from a Snowmobile Adventure to a New Year Celebration, your three-night break is filled with magical experiences. Here is a typical itinerary.

December 30

Your flight departs around 10am and at Enontekiö you are guided to your coach. The journey to Hetta takes around ten to 15 minutes. Watch out for Santa’s reindeer in the woods. Your all-in-one thermal suits and boots collection will be organised by your representative. After checking in at your chosen accommodation, your Transun rep hosts a welcome meeting and will answer any further questions during dinner. Tonight, you can join one of our optional activities, such as a snowmobile night safari, hoping to encounter the Northern Lights. See 'Optional Excursions' for full details.

New Year's Eve

During a private family meeting in his cabin, each child has the chance to talk with Santa now that he is back from his annual journey around the world. Each child receives a small gift. This evening, enjoy a New Year Celebration at your hotel.
