2 Night Trip ex Dublin
This two-day adventure to Lapland is packed with activities from start to finish, including a meeting with Santa himself.
Your day will take place at Kittila’s Snow Village, where you’ll have a huge choice of things to do. Little ones can zoom down the snow slide, or learn how to drive a miniature skidoo. You’ll get a short husky-led sleigh ride and the chance to see the village’s ice-built bar and chapel, too.
If you need to take a time-out from the cold weather, there are huts where you can get involved in arty activities, plus a café where you warm up over lunch. And, when its time to meet Santa, you’ll head to his log cabin which is pitched deep in the woods.

FLY TO KITTILA
You’ll get a hot breakfast on your flight to Lapland, before landing around midday to pick up your snowsuit and boots. Then it’s on to the Snow Village, where your action-packed day takes place. Just so you know, lunch and all the activities below are included in the price of your trip. That said, it's worth bringing extra euros for any other food and drink or souvenirs you might want to buy.
HUSKY ADVENTURE
Hop on the back of a husky-led sleigh and you’ll be whisked off on a short ride around the Lappish countryside. There’ll be time to find out how the dogs are trained, plus Santa’s elves have a fun story to tell about how the huskies saved Christmas.
SNOW VILLAGE
Kittila’s Snow Village is home to an ice hotel with igloo-like rooms, an ice bar, an ice chapel and impressive carved ice sculptures. Just so you know – the snow village is built at the beginning of December, so if you’re due to arrive at this time you may see the impressive build in action.
REINDEER SLEIGH RIDE
Climb into a sleigh, and let Rudolph and Co. gently guide you through snow-covered forests on a short ride.
SNOWMOBILING
After learning how to drive your snowmobile, you can head off on a short ride to explore the winter wilderness. Kids can even have a go, too.
ARCTIC STORYTELLING
You’ll get a real taste of tradition when you meet one of the Lapland locals. You can poke around their tent, before listening to age-old stories and legends about Lapland. Arts and crafts are on the cards, too.
SNOW FUN
You can’t come to Lapland without playing in the snow. Start a friendly snowball fight, build a snowman, ride a sledge or learn how to drive a miniature skidoo. Afterwards, warm up by the campfire with a hot berry juice.
MEET SANTA
Get your wish list ready, as you’ll hop on a skidoo and travel through the snowy woodland to meet Santa. The elves will help you impress him by teaching you how to say hello in Finnish.
HOME TIME
After three hours in the Snow Village, Santa’s elves will take you to the airport ready for your flight home
