Spend Christmas this year in Northern Finland. Known for their seclusion, panoramic views and aurora skies, the Levi Glass Igloos are the perfect spot for a White Christmas.
These well-appointed glass igloos are complete with private kitchenettes, showers, and toilets. Dinner is a Lappish affair and is served daily in the glass-roofed restaurant. Christmas Eve (for guests staying the 24th Dec) will be a special traditional Finnish Christmas dinner.
Fill your days with winter activities – dogsledding, snowmobiling and a reindeer safari plus a special Santa program. In addition, not too far away is the bustling ski resort of Levi for winter shopping, evening skiing and further activities.
Activities are subject to change order.
Due to high demand, many of our Christmas tours become fully booked over the 24/25 December dates. Most of our tours now have pre-Christmas departures running just before the busy Christmas period. These tours include a Santa visit which is still very exciting to the children as Santa can talk to them about what they are hoping to receive from him and his preparations for his imminent departure. Flights and activities are also easier to prepare at this stage.

Transfer from Kittilä airport to your glass igloo via the warm clothing and boots pick up spot. Check in is from 4pm and once this is completed, settle into your glass igloo. Each glass igloo has a kitchenette, shower and toilet. The windows are insulated and electrically heated to keep them from frosting. The kitchenette is equipped with a breakfast set for two, electric stove, microwave and kettle, toaster and fridge. In addition, the igloos have a radio/CD player, a hair dryer and a socket for car engine heaters. At the centre of the igloo is a motorised double bed that can be converted into twin beds.
Enjoy your first evening in Lapland. With no light pollution and no noise you can truly feel the beauty of the Arctic night, admire the night sky and hopefully see the Northern Lights. Hear the silence of the wilderness and breathe in the cleanest air in Europe. Any clear night, grab a blanket, wander outside and watch for the Northern Lights.
After breakfast, you will be picked up from Levi Igloo for a Husky safari. Enjoy spectacular snowy views of Finnish Lapland and feel invigorating power of adrenaline in your body. Everyone will experience husky team driving (one is driving, one is sitting on a sledge). Each team consists of about six dogs, you as the driver, and a passenger comfortably seated in the wooden sledge. During the safari, the driver and passenger can switch places to share the experience.
After the trip, have a warm soup lunch and hot drinks by the open fire.
Return to the glass igloos and spend the afternoon sledding around before your special Christmas Eve dinner (24th Dec) is served at the Restaurant Aurora Sky. Guests not staying over Christmas Eve will be served the regular dinner.
After breakfast it is dogsledding, this is what you absolutely should try in Lapland! After the safety instructions, you will start the journey out into the forests. Enjoy the silence and beautiful winter scenery of Levi. Everyone can experience driving a husky team as one drives while the other sits on a sledge. There is opportunity to change places halfway through the tour.
After the trip warm drinks will be served by an open fire.
After lunch you will meet the friendly reindeers. Experience the silence of nature in a noiseless reindeer sleigh. Forget your hurries, just relax, observe surrounding forest and enjoy. During the programme you can also feed the reindeer with lichen and take photos. The guide will also tell you how to handle and treat the reindeer and you can try to catch wooden reindeer with Lappish lasso.
