Inghams Continues Festive Season Santa Breaks To Finland

Summer is over! As families return from their holidays and the kids start going back to school, Christmas cards are already popping up in high street shops, meaning people are starting to plan for winter.

Specialist tour operator Inghams ensures families can escape the dull British weather and add a bit of sparkle to their winter, with its Santa Breaks holidays to magical Finnish Lapland. This year, Inghams makes Lapland more accessible than ever before, with NEW direct flights from Newcastle and East Midlands. The three- or four-night breaks include a fun itinerary with:

• A visit to one of Santa’s workshops (help the elves bake gingerbread and play festive games with new friends)
• An unforgettable private family meeting with Santa Claus himself
• A Christmas-themed buffet dinner and party with Santa and friends
• Receive a souvenir gift from Santa

There’s also plenty of time for playing in the snow and, to add a little extra magic, families may catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights!

Optional excursions include meeting Comet the Reindeer on a combined reindeer and husky safari and farm visit; experiencing a magical snowmobile safari through the enchanting, snowy wilderness; and enjoying downhill ski lessons on near-empty slopes with a friendly, English-speaking instructor.          

Accommodation options range from half board hotels to self-catering apartments and cosy log cabins.

The four-star Levi Hotel Panorama & Apartments, NEW to Inghams’ programme for this winter, is an ideal base from which to explore this incredible winter wonderland. Perched at the top of Levi Fell and reached by a three-minute gondola ride from Levi village centre, this stylish hotel boasts staggering views from its modern family hotel rooms and spacious, fully-equipped apartments. It couldn’t be more convenient for those who wish to downhill ski, as the hotel sits right next to the slopes. Facilities include a children’s play area, sauna (private sauna in apartments), gym, large restaurant with ski slope views, and bar & lounge. Half board (buffet breakfasts and dinners) is included for both rooms and apartments.

Inghams is the expert in Lapland, having been operating there for over 20 years. Its unmatched knowledge and excellent value are what families rely on for the most magical trip of a lifetime! Santa Breaks are available in Levi and Ylläs, just north of the Arctic Circle, from 25th November - 19th December 2018 with departures from London Gatwick, Bristol, Manchester and, new for 2018, Newcastle and East Midlands (three-night stays depart on Sundays and four-night stays depart on Wednesdays).
