The Ultimate VIP Santa Claus Experience

This Christmas experience can start before the family even leaves home.

A few days before departure, one of Santa's elves can make a surprise visit to your clients' home, bringing a personal invitation for the children to travel to Lapland and meet Santa Claus. The invitation is accompanied by a personal video greeting from Santa himself.

The elf arrives in full costume and can speak English or Spanish.

The timing of the visit can be arranged around the family's travel plans, turning the days leading up to departure into part of the experience.

For stays in and around Levi and Rovaniemi, we can arrange a completely private Santa experience in the forest, where the family follows clues leading to his secret hideaway.

Along the way, the children meet Santa's elves and join the Christmas preparations. In Levi, they can make decorations and bake gingerbread, while in Rovaniemi families can choose between a Gingerbread Masterclass or a session at the toy factory.

The highlight is a private meeting with Santa Claus. Personal gifts can be handed over to us in advance for Santa to give to the children, and he will know details such as the name of their best friend or family dog. For the children, these little touches can make meeting Santa feel very real indeed.

For families looking for privacy and space, we recommend staying in a private chalet in Finnish Lapland. Set in the wilderness, the chalets provide a private base surrounded by the snow-covered landscape, with the possibility of seeing the Northern Lights every night if conditions are right.

The chalets are fully equipped, and a private chef takes care of breakfast, lunch and dinner throughout the stay.

We can also provide a dedicated host who takes care of transfers, timings and arrangements throughout the journey. Multilingual hosts can be arranged when required.

Meet the reindeer and learn about their importance to life and culture in Lapland. The experience can include a peaceful sleigh ride through the snowy landscape, time with the reindeer and their herders, and an introduction to local traditions. A classic Lapland experience that works particularly well for families.

Head into the snowy wilderness by snowmobile, following trails through forests and across frozen landscapes. With a private guide, the route and pace can be adapted to the group, with stops along the way to take in the surroundings. A great way to cover more ground and experience the scale of Lapland in winter.

Set out into the Lapland wilderness behind a team of huskies, travelling through snow-covered forests and across frozen landscapes. Guests can learn how to handle the sled themselves before heading out on the trail with an experienced guide. A classic winter experience and a favourite for both children and adults.

Head out after dark in search of the Northern Lights with a private guide. Depending on the destination and conditions, the experience can be arranged by car, snowmobile, skis, snowshoes or even husky sled. The route is planned around the weather and aurora forecast to give guests the best possible chance of seeing the lights.
