Thinking of going next year as a family thing on boxing day, what is there to do? Any advice? So far I have night in the ice hotel, husky sled ride and safari, snow mobile and a good few days skiing.

Anything else?

 

Arnt you a bit old for them to be taking you to Lapland to see Father Christmas?

 

No way!!!!!

Never too old to see Santa!!!

 

nutta should be a good laugh though, Some of my family was on about getttign a cabin in Switzerland for xmas but doesnt look like where goign to go as my bro aint fussed on it

 

I already live there.

 

Cool!

Anything you recommend?? What are the chances of seeing the Norhern Lights???

 

my sister went to lapland in dec for her honeymoon, took the kids to see father christmas,

for 4 days it cost £3500 and to there horror when they arrived it was £400 per ride, ie husky ride and sleigh ride,,,,, she said it was nothing but a rip off and NEVER AGAIN

so in total it cost £4300 for 4 days

 

I went a ages ago before it got really commercial and it was

 

It's nothing like that much if you book it all in advance!!!

 

i misread the title of of the thread and thought it said

"anyone been to leyland over christmas"

 

we went in december 20th from manchester. was £400 each for a 1 day trip. left at 7am and got back at about 11pm. it was a great day for the litlun we had sleigh ride, husky ride, reindeer ride, met santa and he got a pressie. it included all meals etc.

they give you all the thermal clothes you need and it was well organised. dont think i'd like to go for more than one day mind cos they only have 2 hours of sunlight and its generally cloudy and snowing so you cant really tell when it gets *dark* cos it already is!. cant imagine what you would do there once you've done the things above and for little kids a 5 minute ride is all they want. worth a day trip.
