Itinerary

Day 1: Arrival

Arrive Rovaniemi airport and take your private luxury transfer to the villa. You will be greeted with a welcome reception. Relax a bit before your guide takes you outside to do some snowshoeing and observe Northern Lights. Aurora is best seen in the darkness, with no artificial lights around. Enjoy Nordic gourmet meals and Spa in the lodge. Choose the perfect Christmas tree in front of your villa and decorate it together.

Day 2: The Elves and Santa Claus

Let the miracles start! Surprise visit by the Elves and you're taken out by their magic sleigh, to meet Santa Claus deep in his hideaway place in the depth of secret forest, where only a few can reach and only with the help of Elf Magic. You travel there by a reindeer sleigh. On the way, Elves has got a lot to tell you about their hidden life in the modern world, about their post system and about their full time work as Santa's ambassadors. Suddenly, you see a smoke between snow-covered trees. What is it?

Day 2: Private meeting with Santa

The elf will walk you through a hardly seen trail in a forest and here you are, shaking hands with Santa Claus himself. Kids will learn a lot, and adults will recollect how was it, to be a kid when you get presents from Santa who knew exactly what you all were hoping to get this year!

Day 2: The Elves

Enjoy hot drinks by the open fireplace, cook gingerbread with Elves, and learn some professional Elves secrets from Professor Elves Santa’s Helpers Training. With your brand new Santa’s Helpers Training Diploma, you're now officially entitled to help Santa and his team to manage Christmas time!

Enjoy lunch in front of the open fire, and spend a relaxing afternoon in your home-away-from-home with panorama sauna and outdoor hot tube at your disposal. Spend evening tasting various Arctic meals and hunting the best Northern Lights viewing.

Day 3: Snowmobiling safari & Ice fishing

What about a touch of extreme? No worries, it's absolutely safe even with kids. A private snowmobile safari in the wilderness will take you to a remote frozen lake. Here you will learn how to get your lunch in Finland in winter, you will learn how to ice fish! You can catch, in fact, a very big fish here. Take you lunch back home, chef will be delighted to cook it for the dinner. Train your kids how to build snow castle and practice marksmanship in a snowball game. Or, just take some time for yourself and walk in a secluded winter forest before dinner.

Day 4: Husky dogs sledding

Today, you travel to a husky park for a private husky dog sledding in the woods. Meet lovely huskies and steer your own team through the fascinating scenery of snowy Lapland. Our enthusiastic dogs will take on a unique once-in-a-lifetime experience. Let the dogs lead you through the wild Arctic nature. You will travel about 5 km in a sleigh, deep to the wilderness - and back, to the warm open fire and hot drinks.

We return home for another delicious Arctic lunch our chef has just finished cooking for you. After lunch, plunge into the festive atmosphere when you visit the official Santa Claus village.

My cousin and I attended the first Mexico soccer games of the 2018 World Cup and World of Discoveries was excellent. The lodging accommodations were great and centrally located. The personnel were wonderful. Thank you Tim for taking care of all our request. I was very surprised to received a message at 3 am informing me that our car was outside waiting to transfer us to the airport. That is the level of service that we received from World of Discoveries. Great company that made our trip even more memorable since it was absolutely hassle free.

World Cup experience (A+) It is great when companies do exactly what you paid for. Host Anna, was amazing at answering all questions and posting in the WhatsApp groups the timings and what to expect in each of the stages of the trip. Seats could have been a little better but we were told that it was a Fifa decision.

The World of Discoveries team made organising a complex holiday to the Qatar World Cup a breeze. My initial contact, Michael, managed to bring the cost of the holiday in line with my budget where other travel agents told me or would be impossible. On the ground we had a great experience on the desert tour and generally had a ball. Thank you
