FAMILY ARCTIC MAGIC
Where Fairy Tales Comes to Life
Step into a world where the stories you tell your children finally become their reality. Family Arctic Magic is an exclusive, slow-paced journey designed to let families bond deeply in the quiet heart of the North. From meeting Santa in a private session tailored just for your loved ones to steering your own family husky sled through glistening snow, every moment is thoughtfully crafted to be safe, magical, and entirely personal.
Choose Your Gateway to Magic
Lapland is a vast, ancient wilderness, but for families, we have hand-picked two primary hubs that offer the perfect balance of accessibility and untamed nature. Both Rovaniemi and Kittilä feature their own airports, ensuring your journey begins with ease the moment you touch down.
While Lapland is a large region, these two destinations are the perfect family choice: you are never far from world-class amenities, yet you are completely immersed in the silent, raw wilderness of Finland.
-
Rovaniemi: The Festive Heart
As the official hometown of Santa Claus, Rovaniemi is where the festive spirit lives year-round. It is the perfect choice for families who want to visit the iconic Official Santa Claus Village. -
Kittilä: The Wild Retreat
Located further north, the Kittilä and Levi area offers a more secluded, "tucked away" feeling. It is perfect for families seeking quiet luxury and deep, silent forests.
The Nomade Promise: Regardless of which base you choose, every signature activity listed below is available. We bring the magic to you, wherever you decide to wake up.
Private Moments, Infinite Memories
We don’t do crowds. Every activity is entirely private, ensuring your family can move at its own pace—because the best moments happen when you aren't rushing to catch a group bus.
-
A Private Audience with Santa: Depending on your location, the magic is tailored for intimacy. In Rovaniemi, we arrange a private meeting within the official Santa Claus Village, bypassing the public lines. In Kittilä, the experience is a soulful encounter at a private cabin hidden deep within a secret forest.
-
Family-Friendly Snowmobiling:Experience the thrill of the tundra with total peace of mind. Small children will glide through the snow in a special covered sledge towed by the guide—warm, cozy, and protected. Children over 120cm can enjoy the excitement of riding on the back of the snowmobile driven by a parent.
-
Private Husky Safari: Take the reins of your own husky team and feel the power of the dogs as you glide across the frozen landscape. Because your tour is private, you have the freedom to stop for photos or spend extra time petting the dogs and learning about their lives in the Arctic.
-
Private Reindeer Safari:Slow down and snuggle under warm reindeer hides in a traditional sled. This peaceful journey through the snow-dusted forest is the ultimate way to connect with Lappish nature. Since it’s just your family, there’s no rush—just the quiet sound of hooves on snow.
-
Ice Fishing Fun: A true Arctic tradition. We’ll teach your family how to drill a hole in the thick lake ice and wait for a bite. It’s a meditative, fun, and rewarding activity that connects every generation to the Lappish way of life.
-
Northern Lights Hunting: Set out on an adventure in the comfort of a plush, heated van. This is "hunting" on your family's terms; your guide is completely flexible with the needs of your children, and you are free to head back to your accommodation at any time. We monitor the aurora forecasts so you only head out when the sky is most likely to dance.
