Hi All
Has anyone travelled to Lapland recently? It's the big 4.0. at the end of the year, and I'd like to celebrate by taking kids to Lapland.
I fancy Saariselka from looking at brochures as I would love to see the Northern Lights too, but as I have never been before or know anyone else that's been, I wondered if anyone on here had been before and could recommend any hotels/companies that provide all the 'Santa experiences'.
Thanks v much!

There was quite a few threads in December. We went to Yllas as it was close to a ski resort but also liked the look of Saariselka. We booked through Thomson and were very pleased. Don't count on seeing the Northern lights as I think its luck of the draw.
Other companies are Esprit and Transun.

Thanks - I'll trawl back through the December posts, but thanks for your help.

Rovaniemi in Finland is good too. Sadly the northern lights are most likely around Feb, so doesn't fit in well with a Santa trip (but you might be lucky).
