All Aboard the Arctic Express - 2008
This very different one night stay will fire up the imagination as you combine planes, steam train and coach, along with traditional forms of transport to search for Santa. As you board Santa's very own mail train who will be on board...?

Includes:
Return flights to Rovaniemi, accommodation on full board, ride on Santa's steam train, reindeer and husky dog sleigh rides, skidoos (motorised snow scooters), individual family visit to Santa, gift allowance for children, souvenir CD, souvenir DVD, souvenir licences. Also includes transfers, thermal overalls AND boots.
Resort - Luosto:
Lying some 90 minutes north of Rovaniemi and 100 minutes from Kittila is the ski resort of Luosto comprising two hotels, a small cluster of beautiful log cabins, nestling amongst the fir trees and adjacent to a slalom ski slope and an attractive log cabin restaurant. It is such a beautiful and peaceful area that it is quite possible to believe that Father Christmas lives behind Luosto fell.
Itinerary
Day One:
You'll fly from your chosen airport to Lapland where upon arrival you will be transferred to the steam train. As you slip through the Arctic wilderness what experiences might unfold? This is a special train full of surprises! Upon arrival is Santa waiting? No, this is only the end of the line and you must finish your journey by coach. Upon arrival in Luosto you will enjoy dinner, receive your thermal clothing and your accommodation for the night.
Day Two:
Following a substantial breakfast you depart on the search for Santa. During the activity period you will enioy reindeer rides and husky rides and both adults and children will have the chance to drive a snowmobile. The highlight of the day is surely the individual family visit to Santa where children can tell him the content of their Christmas letters. Lunch is served at Luosto after which you head back by coach to Rovaniemi for your return flight.
ACCOMMODATION:
The well-appointed Hotel Luostotunturi was designed to fit into the natural beauty of the area and is built in the shape of a reindeer earmarking!
Twin rooms have shower, wc, TV with video satellite channel, telephone, hairdryer and minibar.
Family rooms for 3 or 4 persons can be provided with 2 individual beds and a convertible double sofa bed, or a duplex room with 2 beds at the lower level and 2 mattress beds for children at the higher level reached by a staircase (with safety gate). A highlight is the Amethyst Spa swimming pool (a grouse shaped Roman bath with various water jet massage points) and 2 jacuzzis. Breakfast and dinner are buffet style.
|
Cabins vary in style but in each one you will find your own private sauna, shower and wc, kitchen area, TV and a warm air clothes dryer. For the romantics at heart there is a wonderful log fire in each one (although all have central heating as well!)
Open plan cabins normally provide 2 double beds built into the wood at a lower level and 2 upper beds. Others may provide a different breakdown of beds but will still provide for a maximum of 6 persons. These will be situated 5 to 25 minutes walk from the main log cabin restaurant.
Two bedroom cabins generally accommodate 4 persons, although it may be possible to obtain some for 6 persons. These cabins are situated 15 to 30 minutes walk from the restaurant. Meals: You will be advised of your meal arrangements on your itinerary.
