Why Lapland – and Why Now?

Harper and Kelly just had the most magical trip to Lapland, and it was everything they dreamed of – and more! ❄️🌲

If you’re thinking about a bucket-list winter adventure with the kids, Lapland is the place to be. From meeting the real Father Christmas to sledding through forests with huskies, it’s a snowy wonderland that makes you feel like you’re inside a Christmas movie.

December is perfect because the snow is thick, the days are magical, and the festive atmosphere is still in full swing – plus the winter sunshine feels extra special when it hits the snow.

Stress-Free Travel & Magical Arrival

From the airport to the heart of Lapland, everything was so smooth and stress-free. The charter plane itself was part of the adventure:


  • Special birthday announcements on the tannoy – the whole plane sang along!

  • Fun games, competitions, and treats for everyone – even us grown-ups were excited 😅

  • On landing: snow-covered forests, crisp winter air, and thousands of twinkling Christmas trees 🌲✨


It felt like stepping straight into a movie – quiet, magical, and just perfect for families.


Adventures in the Snow Lapland is not just about seeing snow – it’s about doing fun stuff you can’t anywhere else:


  • Meeting Father Christmas 🎅 – in a real snowy forest, with twinkling lights and elves everywhere. Pure magic!

  • Husky sled rides 🐾 – zooming through forests, snow falling like glitter, cold on your cheeks, adrenaline through the roof!

  • Tobogganing ⛷️ – flying down snowy hills and laughing the whole way.

  • Elves’ challenges 💃 – they even made Harper do cartwheels! (she nailed it, of course 😅)

  • Snow angels 🧚‍♀️ – because every trip needs a little magic on the ground too.

  • Hot chocolate & berry juice stops ☕ – perfect to warm up between adventures.


Everything felt personal, perfectly timed, and magical – from the cabin crew to the elves, everyone was part of the story.


Harper’s Lapland Top Tips

  • Wrap up warm with layers, hat, gloves, and boots – trust us, you’ll need it!

  • Go early in the season – quieter and magical for photos

  • Let the kids explore everything – they’ll remember it forever

  • Take lots of photos – every corner is a “wow” moment

  • Don’t rush – Lapland is about moments, not speed

Why Families Will Love Lapland

Lapland isn’t just snow – it’s unforgettable family memories:

  • Perfect for kids, teens, and adults

  • Lots of safe, magical outdoor adventures

  • Twinkly lights, elves, and Christmas magic everywhere

  • A perfect mix of thrill and cosy moments

Even in just a one-day trip, we packed in more magic than I could imagine – and we’ll never forget it.
