Why I Love Laura Clarke TRAVEL CONSULTANT - CLEVEDON Lapland A trip to Lapland is a magical experience for all the family. Lapland is really about two things, meeting Santa and exploring the Winter Wonderland. From Husky dog sleigh rides, snowmobiling or chasing the Northern Lights, it’s all there. The scenery is wonderful with snow on the trees, icy lakes and even a famous snow village made from snow and ice, which melts away when the weather warms up. Last year I took my two boys which was an experience we will never forget. I love the magic of Christmas, inches of real snow, tobogganing and snowball fighting. A visit to Santa in the enchanted forest in his own home, the boys faces were priceless. Interesting Fact Did you know Lapland is famous for its cheese. Squeaky cheese - so called because of the noise it makes when you chew it. Top Tip I would recommend layers, two pairs of gloves at least. Wear one under the other if you can. Also try all the activities they are fun even for the big kids. Recommendation Although this day trip was a once in a lifetime experience which I will never forget if budget allows then I would recommend Transun 3 night sleigh bells ringing itinerary.
