❄️ WHAT LAPLAND TRIP IS BEST SUITED FOR ME? 🎅🏼
It seems everyone is planning ahead at the moment and one thing that keeps coming up is Lapland…
“I’d love to take the kids but I don’t know where to start.”
“I think my kids are too old now.”
“Do we go for the day or stay a few nights?”
So hopefully I can clear a few things up, because there are SO many ways to experience Lapland and it really isn’t one trip suits all.
❄️ LAPLAND IN A DAY
Yes, you can go to Lapland for the day. I’ve done it myself and it’s brilliant!
You get a taste of the magic and fit so much into those few hours — huskies, reindeer, snowmobiling, playing in the snow and of course, Santa. 🎅🏼
Who would I recommend a day trip for?
Those who have a stricter budget or simply can’t be away for a few nights, especially at such a busy time of year.
But there are also people I wouldn’t recommend a day trip to.
It’s a full-on day and your time in Lapland is limited. If someone in your party needs regular toilet breaks, struggles with the cold or just needs to take things at a slower pace, personally I’d look at staying longer. You want to enjoy it, not spend the day worrying about keeping up.
❄️ 2 NIGHTS OR LONGER
This gives you a much more relaxed experience.
You’ll still have a day packed with all those amazing Lapland experiences, but they’re generally longer and you can enjoy it knowing you haven’t got a flight home to catch that evening.
If you’re cold, stop and warm up with berry juice around an open fire. 🔥
And one of my favourite memories from our trip was finishing the day and carrying on sledging with the kids until the lamps went off. 😂🛷
Many trips also include a festive gala evening, which is a lovely way to finish it all.
❄️ WHAT IF MY KIDS ARE OLDER?
This is the one I hear ALL the time…
You have NOT missed your chance!
Lapland doesn’t have to revolve around Santa.
You can still do the huskies, reindeer rides, snowmobiling, Northern Lights and loads of other winter activities without visiting Santa at all.
There are trips aimed at older families, couples and even adults-only Lapland trips.
And if you fancy combining it with skiing, you can do that too. 🎿
That’s why when someone says to me “How much is Lapland?” it’s almost impossible to give one answer.
A day trip, a Santa break, a longer snowy escape, older kids, adults only, skiing… they’re all completely different trips.
Then you’ve got the different areas of Lapland on top of that!
It’s not about finding the best Lapland holiday.
It’s about finding the one that’s best suited to you. ❤️
So if Lapland is on your list but you’re completely overwhelmed with where to start, drop me a message.
Tell me who’s travelling, the ages, what sort of experience you want and your budget, and I can help you narrow it down.
And if you think your kids are too old…
Trust me, they’re not. ❄️❤️
