Visit Santa in Lapland

One sure fire way to make some memorable, magical childhood memories for you and your family is to visit Santa in Lapland. The charming Finnish province is a well known winter wonderland. It has been the central theme in the Christmas memories of many families over the years. This is no tourist friendly Christmas Village. This is an authentic experience full of all the magic and wonder usually only seen in Christmas movies.

In Lapland, your children will enjoy an entirely new experience. When they visit Santa, it will not be for the short conversations commonly seen with mall and department store Santas. Here, your child will be able to whisper his or her secret Christmas wishes to Santa. They will be able to deliver their Christmas lists and letters to him personally.

Furthermore, your children – and you – will actually be able to frolic with the elves! Santa's little helpers interact with the children, making the experience an even more authentic and special one. And no worries – all the reindeer your children know and love from the Christmas songs and specials will be on hand as well.

In Lapland, the family will even be able to tour Santa's workshop and his special post office, both hidden in the lush woodlands surrounding the area. Sleigh rides, gingerbread baking, and making decorations with the elves and Mrs. Claus are just some the activities available in this scenic province of Finland.

Of course, the beauty of Lapland itself also makes for a wondrous, magical holiday. Visiting Santa is just the icing on the cake. Incidentally, that cake includes having the opportunity to celebrate the winter solstice, and getting to see the famed, breathtaking Aurora Borealis – the height of Christmas lights! From visiting real igloos to meeting Santa and his family, a holiday such of this will definitely be remembered for years to come.
