ARRIVAL AND WELCOME
On arrival at Rovaniemi airport, you will be transferred* (approximately 1.5 hours) to your accommodation at the Northern Lights Village. After checking into your accommodation, you will receive your cold weather clothing that you will keep for the duration of your trip.

DAY 2
Enjoy a leisurely breakfast and a free day before participating in a fascinating interactive photography workshop that will equip you to capture the magnificent Northern Lights should they make an appearance during your trip. You will learn invaluable techniques from a seasoned photographer which will empower you to compose advanced photographs that you can treasure for years to come. The workshop will last around one hour.

In the evening, an adventure by snowshoe awaits. Used since ancient times, snowshoeing is a popular Lappish activity that allows you to walk through deep snow. Your local guide will lead you through the tranquil woodland at night to a cosy hut nestled in the fells. Listen to Nordic tales and warm up with a comforting hot drink by the fire as you anticipate a performance by the Northern Lights. Who will be first to spot their emerging green ribbons or undulating dancing?

DAY 3
Following a hearty breakfast, a short transfer will take you to meet your very own team of huskies. These magnificent dogs will be excited to greet you and provide the perfect Lappish photo opportunity. After an informative briefing, you and your huskies will embark on your safari. Once driving along the untouched trail, the dogs will fall silent, running at full speed as you glide effortlessly through the crisp, white fells.

You will ride two per sled, with the option to swap drivers halfway through. The activity will last approximately 2 hours in total (including transfers and instructions), travelling for approximately 10km. We expect you to be out on the husky sledge for around one hour in total.

The action continues after lunch with a snowmobile adventure. A trip to Lapland wouldn’t be complete without experiencing this exhilarating pursuit. Snowmobiling is an integral mode of transport for the local people in these remote parts and offers guests the chance to engage in the Finnish way of life. You will be out for around two hours in total stopping along the way to take photographs of the glistening wilderness and enjoy a hot drink. Please note that the driver of a snowmobile must be at least 18 years old and hold a valid driving licence.

DAY 4
Symbolic of wisdom, resourcefulness and intelligence, reindeers are the essence of Lapland and meeting these majestic creatures is a must-do activity on any holiday to the Arctic region.

After a short transfer, you will meet the reindeer and have the opportunity to feed them. Following this, you will enjoy a one-hour (approximately) ride on a reindeer-pulled sleigh (2-4 people per sleigh) – this was once a traditional method of transport before the introduction of snowmobiles. You will venture into the snow-covered forest and lunch will be served at the reindeer farm. The activity will last for around two and a half hours in total.

Your final evening offers another exciting opportunity to glimpse the magnificent Northern Lights, this time by heated sleigh. Your expert guide will lead you through the enchanting wilderness to a welcoming fire. Delight in hot drinks and snacks as your guide shares interesting stories as you prepare to behold the wondrous Northern Lights. This activity is approximately three hours long.

DAY 5
Sadly, your time at Pyhä has reached an end. Take a moment to take in its stunning landscape one last time before returning to the airport.
