Magical Holiday Adventure in Snow-Covered Finnish Lapland

With equal parts luxury, holiday fun, and thrilling outdoor adventure, this family-friendly getaway to the Levi region of beautiful Finnish Lapland transports you to a winter wonderland of ice and snow for a magical Christmas-season vacation you’ll never forget.

Over five incredible days, you’ll experience some of the Arctic’s most exciting and authentic activities, immerse yourself in Lappish culture and traditions, look for the Northern Lights at night, and enjoy unique excursions that take you out into stunning wintry landscapes and lovely Lapland villages.

During your stay, you’ll enjoy deluxe accommodations in a private, high-end chalet at the top of the Levi fell, a short drive from the airport and convenient to many nearby activities, but surrounded by spectacular Arctic woodland that feels worlds away. The home features spacious living and dining areas, private bedrooms, your own VIP host, private chef, and personal elf friend (who will play with and entertain the kids for 3–4 hours each day), making it the perfect home-base for your family vacation.

You’ll also enjoy unique, winter-specific excursions, custom-crafted for the ultimate holiday experience enjoyed by kids and adults alike. From dog sledding with a team of huskies to relaxing with a reindeer sleigh ride safari through a quiet, snowy forest; snowmobiling across breathtaking trails to learn ice-fishing on a frozen local lake followed by warm lunch outdoors; a morning of Nordic skiing or snowshoeing through peaceful wintry landscapes to an afternoon guided tour of the famous Lainio Snow Village—each day is filled with fun, seasonal activities that showcase Finland’s incredible natural beauty.

To top it off, on your final full day in Lapland, you’ll visit the magical Elves Experience Village where you’ll be met by an elf guide who will take you for a walk through the forest to the fairytale-like Elves Hideaway. There, you’ll bake cookies together at the Gingerbread House, tour and make Christmas decorations at the Elf School, and then enjoy a private and personalized visit with Santa Claus, himself, in his Christmas cabin—a truly unique experience that’s sure to be a hit with kids of all ages.

Between scheduled adventures, you’ll have time to relax at the chalet; dine on delicious meals with an emphasis on local, Lappish ingredients; sit outside by the fire, roasting marshmallows and looking for the Northern Lights; or get out and explore on your own.

On the final morning, you can head to the airport to depart for home or extend your winter vacation through Manifest with a trip to Copenhagen and a visit to the Tivoli Gardens Christmas Market.

Whichever you choose, we know this magical Lapland getaway will be a family vacation you’ll never forget.
