Itinerary
SallaSalla is an ideal location for our Search for Santa tours. A small and pretty ski resort in splendid isolation, here one finds a series of quality cabins and a small hotel with a swimming pool which was renovated as recent as the year 2000. Located a 2 hour drive from Rovaniemi the setting is peaceful and tranquil whilst the resort offers the creature comforts that one might expect. For all bookings made directly via this website from 04/08/06, prices are guaranteed without any fuel surcharge Itinerary:Day 1:
The day to go and meet with Santa Claus has arrived and the level of excitement rises. All packing completed, it's off to the airport, and the magic of a destination deep within the Arctic Circle encompasses us. Rovaniemi, unheard of before now, has actual meaning in our lives. Following our arrival in this winter wonderland, it's off to Salla our home for 4 nights in this Arctic wilderness. Accommodation in hotel rooms or cabins according to your wishes, with loan of overgarments and
boots and welcome dinner provided.
Day 2:Our first experience of a Lappish Morning. Yes at 9am it is still very dark outside but with the reflection from the snow at least we can see where we are going. After a fortifying Finnish breakfast, the husky dogs await, the reindeer rides are charming and the snowmobiling pure enchantment. Will we spot Tricky Dicky in his
quest to mislead us in our search? Lunch is provided at an outside venue with dinner at your hotel-restaurant. Day 3: Enjoy participating in either cross country or slalom skiing today. All equipment will be provided. Lunch and dinner will be taken at the hotel. Ski Tuition is not included. Alternatively you may want to buy an optional excursion(at addition cost) by skidoo, reindeer and huskies will be offered by independent local operators, or simply relax. Day 4: Skidoos, reindeer and huskies will once again be used as our search for Santa continues. Keep your eyes peeled for pretty bows on the trees which may mean Snowy Bowy is around! We are fortunate to know that Santa Claus is known never to disappoint children taking the time and trouble to come to his homeland to visit him and we can therefore be assured to meet him sometime during today for that very special encounter. Lunch will be taken at an outside location and this evening enjoy a farewell dinner in the hotel restaurant. Day 5: A choice of activities are offered for the morning including down hill skiing, (slalom) cross country skiing, ice fishing and other snow based activities. Lunch will be taken in the hotel and an opportunity provided to buy some traditional souvenirs in Rovaniemi before joining your return flight to the United Kingdom.
