What could be more enchanting for a child than discovering the real home of Santa Claus? Lapland is the perfect place to get fully into the Christmas spirit, with its pristine and fairytale-like landscapes. Here, kids can make their dreams come true by meeting Santa Claus in person and exploring a world where snow blankets everything and every corner of nature transforms into a scene from the most beautiful fairy tales.
In addition to meeting Santa, the enchanting surroundings of Lapland, with its magical forests, frozen lakes, and stunning starry skies, provide a complete adventure. Every minute feels like a fairy tale, making Lapland the ideal destination for a family holiday.
Lapland offers a wide range of activities that are all incredibly fun, but it's good to know that many of these adventures are suitable for children from the age of 7. For younger kids, some activities may be limited due to safety reasons like weather conditions.
Activities such as a husky safari and snowmobile tours require a certain level of stability and endurance, which is better suited for kids from 6 years old. Once your children reach this age, they can enjoy unforgettable experiences.
