Holiday Details
North Pole Post OfficeAt last the elves have revealed the location of the original Post Office of Santa Claus which can be found in a forested setting to the North of Rovaniemi above the Arctic Circle. This day visit will evoke memories of brass counters, sealing wax, pigeonholes and Santa's original star navigation system for letter deliveries. Here in this original post office he continues to handle letters from all over the world with the assistance of his elves, and looks forward to welcoming you on this auspicious occasion. Your day begins with a flight from your local airport to Rovaniemi. Breakfast will be served during your outward flight and, where possible, aircraft equipped with video entertainment systems will be used. Following your arrival at Rovaniemi airport, transportation will be provided to this secret location. To protect all members of the group from the cold, appropriate Arctic clothing, consisting of an all-in-one suit and boots has been organised. The elves have previously advised us that during December Santa may be seen regularly, close to his post office, supervising the handling of all his present requests, and that he will always spare time to meet with visitors to his Arctic homeland. The beauty of this location is hard to contemplate. Not only is it totally uncommercialised with only 1 smll area where souvenirs can be obtained, traditional lantern style lighting combined with attractive Ice lights ensure the location exudes a magical air. The range of activities offered ensures a fun day will be had by all. Reindeer Rides, Husky rides, snowmobile rides for both adults and children, even snowmobile and sleigh rides are available together with the more simple fun of a tobogganing slope. Santa may be found on an island reached by a wooden bridge over a frozen or semi frozen river. Naturally you will have to find the correct path but even this acts to enhance the mystery. Santa will of course be happy to meet individual families during your stay and will of course have gifts for all children aged between 2 and 11 inclusive. Don't forget to visit the old post office where you can meet with Santa's Post Office Elves and learn how the old style of letter collection has been combined with some of Santa's own special magic. Narurally there's the opportunity to purchase stamps and mail your own christmas cards if you so wish. You may avail of lunch in a traditional wooden restaurant where a range of choice, albeit simple in nature due to the restaurant's wilderness location will be available. Hot soups, pasta, baked potatoes or similar plus a simple desert will be offered with service continuously throughoutb the stay at this location. Sadley as the evening approaches it will soon be time to bid farewell to Santa Claus, departing with many happy memories of this very special day. During your homeward flight dinner will be served.
