Day 1: Welcome To Lapland

The guide will mush a team of 10-12 dogs and you sit 4-5 people on one big sled. Later, enjoy a hot coffee and snack around the fire before returning to your hotel.

Spend the next three nights at your hotel in Kiruna.

Day 2: Swedish Yuletide With Santa

The theme of this day is Christmas, so the first thing to do is to find a tree to decorate! After a comfortable car ride to the woods, your guide will then take you by snowmobile-sled to find the right evergreen. Later, you’ll get to bake ginger bread cookies and experience more Swedish yuletide traditions. Of course, the highlight today is a visit to Santa at his secret forest cabin, where well-behaved children will receive small gifts and everyone will get to enjoy a traditional Swedish Julbord, a hearty buffet with all the typical Christmas delicacies of this region.
