Kurula's Resort

Magical Family Lapland Adventure Itinerary

• Day 1: Arrival

  On arrival at Rovaniemi airport you will be greeted by a driver and then transferred to your hotel. Take some time to relax, and enjoy a nice family meal before your adventure really begins tomorrow.

• Day 2: Husky Safari & Santa Visit

  After breakfast, wrap up warm and head out to a traditional husky farm nestled deep in the Lappish wilderness. You’ll meet your team of eager huskies before setting off on a thrilling safari through the snow-covered forest trails. Glide through pristine landscapes, taking turns to mush and ride as you follow the guide’s lead in this unforgettable Arctic experience. After the husky safari, your adventure continues as you’re whisked away by snowmobile-pulled sleigh, winding through the silent woods towards a hidden forest hut aglow with festive lights. There, waiting beside the crackling fire, is Santa Claus himself – ready for a completely private family meeting in his cosy cabin. Children will enjoy a warm, personal meeting with Santa, who will present them with a small toy to remember the magical moment. The experience is relaxed, enchanting, and set in a beautifully decorated forest hideaway. After your meeting with Santa, return by sleigh through the snowy trees to complete this unforgettable day. Dinner will be served in the resort’s restaurant this evening, where you can share stories from your Arctic adventures around a hearty, warming meal.

• Day 3: Reindeer Farm Visit & Sleigh Ride

  Today you’ll immerse yourself in the slow, traditional rhythm of Arctic life with a visit to a local reindeer farm. After breakfast, journey into the snowy forest to meet the reindeer herders and their gentle animals, learning about the deep connection between the Sámi people and these iconic creatures of the north. You’ll then climb into a sleigh for a peaceful ride through the quiet, snow-blanketed forest. Let the soft jingle of reindeer bells and the swish of the sleigh runners be your soundtrack as you glide across the winter landscape, wrapped in blankets and surrounded by nature. Warm drinks will be served by an open fire, and there’ll be time to ask questions, take photos, and soak up the unique atmosphere of this traditional Lappish experience. You will then return to the hotel where you will have dinner and have some time to relax by the fire or perhaps take a sauna.

• Day 4: Snowmobile Safari

  After breakfast, you will embark on an exciting 2 hour snowmobile ride around the snow covered forests of Luosto. Your expert guide will help you get the hang of your snowmobile, then lead you on a stunning adventure around the part of the world that is one of Europe’s last remaining wild places. The journey will be broken up to make a fire and enjoy warm drinks and snacks next to a frozen river. Afterwards you will head back to your accommodation to relax for the remainder of the day.

• Day 5: Departure Day

  After a buffet breakfast at the hotel, you will be transferred back to Rovaniemi Airport to catch your flight home, taking with you life long memories of your magical time in Lapland.
