Nestled in the heart of Finnish Lapland, Christmas in Luosto is the ultimate escape for those seeking a truly authentic Arctic Christmas. Surrounded by fell landscapes and ancient pine forests, Luosto offers a wonderfully peaceful setting where reindeer roam freely and the chances of seeing the Northern Lights are exceptional. With all meals and activities included, your Canterbury Travel Christmas holiday here is pure, effortless magic from the moment you arrive.
For something a little more secluded and intimate, Christmas in Suomu delivers a hidden gem experience in one of Lapland's most unspoilt winter retreats. Suomu's forest setting creates a fairy-tale atmosphere that feels a world away from everyday life. It’s perfect for families wanting to immerse themselves in the real spirit of a Lapland Christmas. Meeting friendly, funny – and sometimes mischievous – elves, husky rides and visits with Father Christmas himself are all woven into this all-inclusive festive break.
Set against the dramatic scenery of northern Finland's fell country, Christmas in Ruka combines breathtaking winter landscapes with an outstanding range of Lapland activities. Ruka is a firm favourite, offering a festive programme packed with snow adventures, reindeer encounters and unforgettable Christmas moments. Whether it's your first Lapland holiday or a cherished return visit, Ruka will exceed every expectation.
Whether you're looking for a classic Lapland day trip, a short break packed with snow adventures, or a longer Christmas or New Year escape deep in the Arctic wilderness, Canterbury Travel has the perfect Lapland holiday for you.
For those wanting a taste of the Arctic magic without the commitment of a longer stay, our Lapland day trips are the perfect introduction. Departing from regional airports across the UK, these carefully crafted one-day experiences whisk you straight into a winter wonderland – think husky sledding, snowmobile rides, reindeer encounters and a very special visit with Father Christmas himself. It's an extraordinary day out that the whole family will treasure long after the snow has melted.
Our popular Lapland short breaks offer the ideal balance of adventure and relaxation for those who want to truly soak up the Arctic atmosphere. Spanning two to four nights, these breaks give you the time to explore your resort at a leisurely pace, wake up to spectacular snowy landscapes, and enjoy a fuller programme of Lapland activities. Short breaks are a wonderful option for couples, groups and families who want more than a fleeting glimpse of Finnish Lapland.
For the ultimate festive experience, our Christmas and New Year holidays in Lapland are in a class of their own. Spending Christmas Eve under a canopy of Arctic stars, watching your children's faces light up as they meet Santa in his true homeland, or welcoming the New Year in a landscape of pure frozen beauty – these are the moments that Canterbury Travel has been making possible since 1970. With expert support from our dedicated Lapland team, all you need to do is arrive and let the magic begin.
