Fly to Ivalo and transfer to Wilderness Hotel Muotka. Upon arrival you will receive your program schedule before dinner. Depending on your arrival time, cold weather gear is given to you either upon arrival or the next day.

Today you will meet a local reindeer herder and his reindeer. At the reindeer farm you will learn interesting information about the reindeer and the life of a reindeer herder and Sami culture. There will be also possibility for a short reindeer sledge ride during your visit at the farm. This guided trip will be made by car.

Later in the day, the magic begins with a visit to Santa! After a snowmobile sleigh ride to his secret hideaway, families will enjoy a warm and personal meeting with Santa, who will share small gifts with everyone. To make the experience even more memorable, we invite families to submit children's letters to Santa at reception at least one day in advance—this allows Santa to read them beforehand and add a personal touch to each encounter.

An absolute ‘must do’ when visiting Lapland! You will be taught how to handle the sled before heading out on the husky safari, where the huskies will pull your sled through the beautiful winter scenery, passing along frozen Lake Inari. The dogs’ excitement is infectious but they fall silent on the trail, this is the only way to see Lapland. All our husky safaris include full instructions and are based on two people sharing a sled unless otherwise stated.

This evening after dinner, dress warmly and head out to the Aurora Camp, an all-time favorite among our guests.

This trip takes you to one of the specifically chosen camp spots, where you will try to catch the northern lights. You will be comfortably seated in a sledge, pulled by a guide’s snowmobile. We will have open fire and warm drinks while waiting for the sky to show its magic.

The excursions on days 2, 3 & 4 may occur in a different order, depending on availability, timings and weather, but all are included in your stay.

This tour is perfect for those who have never tried snowmobiling before. First you will get familiar with the snowmobile, have full safety instructions and driving lesson. After everyone feels comfortable, you will head out for a small journey into the nearby surroundings.

This evening, transfer to an aurora cabin. The shape of the aurora cabin is inspired by the traditional Sámi hut, Kota. Stay warm and cozy in your bed while gazing at the night sky through the glass ceiling facing north. If you’re lucky, you might even catch the northern lights dancing in the sky! All Aurora Kotas have double beds and room for 1 extra bed. There’s also a private toilet and limited space for luggage.

After breakfast transfer to airport for your flight.
