ARCTIC MAGIC

2 Nights Departing December - short break in Hetta

Our Magic short breaks take you deep inside the Arctic Circle to Hetta, in the far north of Finnish Lapland

*** Every family guaranteed their own private meeting with Santa!***

 

Your Snowmobile Adventure is just part of your Arctic Magic short break with Transun. But there is so much more included. From sledging to snowman making, from a husky dog sled experience to a magical Search for Santa, your two-night break is filled with wonderful, magical experiences. Here is a typical itinerary.

Day One

Collect your special boarding pass at your check-in in the UK and keep it safe! Your flight departs around 10am and at Enontekio 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!

Temperatures here can fall to -35C in December and we stop to collect your all-in-one thermal suits and boots, an essential part of your holiday package. Hats, scarves and gloves are also necessary, so remember to pack some for everyone!

After checking in at your chosen accommodation, your Transun rep hosts a welcome meeting, giving you all the information needed to get the most from your break. This evening, join us on a walk to the local church. After a short welcome by the local vicar and carol singing, you return to your accommodation for dinner. During a welcome dinner your rep will be available to answer any further questions. Tonight, you can join one of our optional activities, such as a snowmobile night safari, perhaps hoping to encounter the Northern Lights.

Day Two

After breakfast, you head outside to board the coach for your special Supervised Snow Fun. This is a day of supervised activities that include a Snowshoe Trek (like walking on tennis racquets!), Snowball Throwing Contest, Tandem Skis (two people on one pair of skis ... with hilarious results) and Children's Skis, Snowman Building (with materials provided), Tug-of-War, Snow Hockey, and lots more! In addition, there will be a supervised kids' snowmobile ride. Activities are available throughout the day. A hot warming lunch will be served in the hotel.

Then, the highlight of the day. With your special boarding pass, you join Santa's own reindeer sleigh in search of Father Christmas. During a private family meeting in his cabin, each child has the chance to talk with Santa and receives a small gift.

Later, enjoy a Festive Dinner at your hotel, complete with party hats and streamers. After dinner, why not join us on an optional Northern Lights Husky Safari?

Day Three

After breakfast, you check out before joining your two included Santa safaris, a 40-minute Husky Experience and a 1.5-hour Snowmobile Adventure. Then, there's time for more snow activities, or try one of our exciting optional excursions, perhaps reindeer herding. After a hot lunch, you set off to Enontekio and your flight home.
