Lapland is the region located in the far northwestern part of Russia along the northern parts of Norway, Sweden, and Finland. It is bordered by the Norwegian Sea to the west and the White Sea to the east. Sweden's highest peaks are in Lapland. The indigenous people of Lapland, the Lapps, have been living scattered across Lapland for two thousand years. Lapland is a place where the experiences you will live cannot be had anywhere else. At night, you will feel the stars in the palm of your hand, and if you are lucky, you will have the chance to see the magnificent Northern Lights. The period for seeing the Northern Lights is the equinox time. That means the probability of seeing them between October and April is very high. Lapland is most famous for its Reindeer. There are more reindeer than people in the region. The indigenous people living here sustain their livelihoods thanks to Reindeer. There are numerous Reindeer farms in the region. OUR TOUR'S ADVANTAGES We will stay one night in the city of Helsinki and have the opportunity to see important historical buildings and squares in the city. By staying 1 night in an Igloo in Rovaniemi, we will experience the culture of the region firsthand. You can sleep in your Igloo with a glass ceiling, watching the stars and, if you are lucky, the Northern Lights. We will visit the legendary Santa Claus Village and spend very enjoyable time here. We will visit the Reindeer Farm, feed the deer here, and take a sleigh ride. We will visit the farm of the Husky Dogs, the symbol of the north, and take a sleigh ride with these cute animals. We will visit the city of Kemi and see the magnificent Ice Castle, which melts every year and is rebuilt from scratch in winter. Inside the castle, you can see interesting ice sculptures

ISTANBUL – ROVANIEMI – SANTA CLAUS VILLAGE – NORTHERN LIGHTS

We depart from Istanbul to Rovaniemi with a scheduled Turkish Airlines flight (TK1749) at 09:45 in the morning. We arrive in Rovaniemi at 13:25. With our bus welcoming us at the airport, we first move to Santa Claus Village.

Santa Claus Village Visit

Santa Claus Village is known as the home of Santa Claus and is especially popular in the winter months. It is famous for its traditional Lappish houses and snow-covered landscapes. Visitors can visit Santa Claus's house and convey their special wishes. Additionally, you can drop cards into the red mailboxes at Santa Claus's post office for yourself or your loved ones to arrive at the next Christmas time. The village is full of souvenir shops, local handicrafts, and Christmas-themed cafes. Santa Claus Village, which is a great place to experience the magical atmosphere of Christmas for people of all ages, is the point where the arctic circle passes, and the polar line is indicated by a blue light line. After our visit to Santa Claus Village, we move to our hotel in Rovaniemi city center. Before checking into the hotel, we stop by the safari office and get our thermal clothes that we will use in the safaris and tours we will make.

Ice Hotel Visit, Dinner, and Northern Lights

After hotel check-in and a short rest, we move to the ice hotel. The Ice Hotel is a popular attraction open to visitors every day between December 15 and April 1. It is one of the largest snow hotels located on the arctic circle. The Snow Hotel is built differently every year and decorated with ice and snow art. Visitors can tour the rooms made of ice, ice sculptures, the Ice Bar, and the Ice Restaurant. After the visit, we have our dinner consisting of a salmon main course cooked over a wood fire in Kota, the traditional Lappish house belonging to the ice hotel. If our luck holds and the weather is clear, we will catch the chance to see the northern lights. We return to our hotel late in the evening. 

ROVANIEMI – HUSKY AND REINDEER SAFARIS

After morning breakfast, we move to the husky and reindeer farm.

Husky Safari

We arrive at the husky farm and visit the huskies, one of the cutest dogs in the world. Today we will learn how to steer our own husky team and experience an unforgettable sleigh ride driving experience with these cute friends. Then we relax accompanied by hot drinks around the fire in a traditional Lappish hut (kota). After the husky tour, we move on to the reindeer farm.

Reindeer Safari

After getting information about reindeer from our local guide, we tour the snow-covered forest with sleds pulled by reindeer. After this unforgettable experience, we spend pleasant moments around the burning fire and receive a “Reindeer Driving Certificate” at the end of the tour. Afterwards, we eat our lunch consisting of reindeer roast, which is a traditional Lapland dish. Then we return to our hotel by bus. Free time for the evening.

During our journey, we cross the Sweden-Finland border and arrive at Axelsvik port. During our 3-hour journey with the world's largest touristic icebreaker ship, you will witness how the ice on the frozen sea is broken. Halfway through our journey, in the middle of the ice-covered sea, we wear thermal suits specially designed to survive in cold seas that will keep us on the water surface, and we swim in the pool created by the ship breaking the ice. After our tour, which is among the activities that must be tried before dying by National Geographic, we go to Kukkolaforsen, Sweden's fishing village, for our lunch. After lunch, return to Rovaniemi and free time for dinner.
