New Year
Arctic Activity
in Lapland
Join Small Families in Lapland for a magical Christmas experience inside the
Arctic Circle
Whilst
just a few centimetres of snow might well 'shut down' much of Great
Britain, Lapland bursts into
life when the snow falls!
Your children will love the
magical atmosphere and you
can relive your own childhood for a while. There is nowhere better to spend
your Christmas.
Your
festive season holiday base will be the lovely Hotel Ivalo, which is located on the outskirts of the town of Ivalo in
Lapland (over 150 miles inside the Arctic Circle)
Your hotel is set in extensive grounds
on the banks of a
frozen river and has the added advantage of some
igloo rooms outside, for those who are feeling more adventurous!
Your
holiday is full
board so includes breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as the full
programme of Christmas activities and festivities.
FACILITIES
Health club, sauna and evening music. A full set of arctic clothing
will be provided including boots, socks, gloves, thermal suit, hat &
balaclava.
The hotel has a good range of winter sports equipment including
toboggans;
x-country ski's; ice skates and snowshoes that you can use
free of charge.
CHRISTMAS
PROGRAM
For each day there will be a different and fascinating activity planned. During the week
you will experience husky sled driving, reindeer sleigh
rides, quad biking and snowmobiles.
You can also try
walking with snow shoes, X-country skiing as well as ice skating on the
outdoor rink opposite the hotel.

Important information
Due to the current weakness of the
pound(£) inevitably, prices for all destinations have increased.
However, should that situation improve during 2009, the reduced
costs will be passed back to you in the form of refunds. You
will not be automatically 'locked in' to higher prices.
