A coach transports you to your Christmas hotel or cabin in Saariselkä, and after fitting for proper weather attire, you’re off in a magical land of snow.

 

Snowmen, sleigh rides, it’s all there for the taking on a holiday to Lapland. After spending some time making snow angels thaw out in an aroma-therapy Finnish sauna.
