When we are ready to go, set off to Santa Claus Village, located in the Arctic Circle, where you can actually cross it yourself. Greet Santa Claus in his office, send a greeting postcard to your family and friends, and explore Santa Claus Village with a lot of Christmas and Lappish products to take back with you. At lunch time, you will try a traditional Finnish buffet. You will also be visiting the husky and reindeer farms in the Santa Claus village. Don't forget to take a selfie with these cute animals during your sleigh ride! After the visit at the Santa Claus Village, join a guided tour with our professional tour guide at the Arktikum Museum, to learn all about the northern nature, culture, and history up close. At night, head out for the first ever hunting experience of the northern lights with our professional photographers! You will receive pictures the next day of you and the northern lights together if we capture them! ### Day 2: Amethyst Mine in Luosto & Saariselkä After breakfast at your hotel, set off to the Amethyst mine, hopping on a snowcat, a large treaded snow vehicle, to reach the tophill. You will be provided with the tools and guidance to dig out your very own rare, hidden amethyst! Our professional guide will explain the story behind it and give the tips for finding the rare crystals! A light lunch will be provided as well in the woods with campfire BBQ snacks. When you are warmed up and ready to continue the journey, we will drive you up to the further north - Saariselkä. Saariselkä village is one of the most popular locations among nature lovers and aurora hunters for hunting the Northern Lights. Let's see if we all get lucky tonight! ### Day 3: Sami Culture - Inari & Gold Mining Start your day with breakfast at the hotel and hop on the real husky adventure! We will arrive at a local farm and learn all about these fluffy animals from the farm staffs before we jump on the sleigh ride into the forest. After saying goodbye to our husky friends, let's enjoy the gold rushers' feeling of gold mining in the wilderness. The gate of Lapland's gold fields is located directly at the road E75, 30 km south of Saariselkä and 230 km north of Rovaniemi. Gold prospectors have taught visitors to pan for gold for more than 40 years in Tankavaara. At lunch, try out the local dishes and see if you like them. Learn more about the Sami people and their unique culture in the Sami museum "Siida", and in Inari, the small and lively village on the edge of Inari Lake. Inari is considered as the center of Sami culture and Arctic nature. ### Day 4: King Crab & Fjords & North Cape Today is all about the King Crab Safari. Learn from the expert divers how to catch and cook the delicious king crab. On your way to North Cape, take a delight in inimitable landscapes and fjord-sightseeing. Later on, enjoy a breathtaking view of the North Cape and the Northern Lights above if the sky is clear enough. ### Day 5: Alta Alta is the most populated town in the county of Finmark, in northern Norway. It is home to more than 6,000 carvings on rocks, some of them dating as early as 4200 BC. Some areas have been turned into open-air museums, and we will have the chance to visit the main one! Afterward, we will visit the Northern Lights Church. Then we will taste a local delicatessen, for lunch. Alta also has an Ice Castle Hotel, where we will be amazed by the architecture and ice sculptures. ### Day 6: Lakeside Sauna Relaxing Day Today we will return to Finland. Sit back and relax to enjoy the stunning views and scenery along the way back to Rovaniemi. Afterward, put on a survival swimming suit and head to the Lappish lake to float in the water. There's no better way than stepping into the traditional Finnish Sauna after a long day jorney in the car. The best way to relax your muscles is to chill in the steaming sauna bath. Sauna is a strong part of the Finnish lifestyle, normally, Finns go to the sauna naked, and this is natural. Although in public mixed saunas, bathing suits are required. The sauna facility we provide is exclusive to you and your group only. Have a quick shower before going in. Sit for a moment to get used to the temperature of the room and throw water on the rocks—löyly (in Finnish we called it)—which will create steam and heat even more. When it gets too warm, remember to take breaks in between. You can go outside to cool down or try ice swimming if you want. Stay hydrated too, as you will be sweating a lot! And to end this perfect, relaxing day, enjoy the most cozy and comfortable stay in the glass igloo Aurora Nest by the frozen lake at the Aito Hotel & Spa Resort. ### Day 7: Ranua Zoo & Departure Day On our last day, we will visit Ranua's Arctic Wildlife Zoo. A natural sanctuary for the Arctic animals, where we will meet more than 50 species of arctic animals, including, of course, the polar bear. After the visit, we will head to the forest for a light snack on the barbecue before heading back to Rovaniemi. This will be the last activity of the trip, you will be dropped off at the train station or airport for your return journey. ## Guide languages Chinese Live, English Live ## Links - Yatra page: https://yatraforfun.com/tour/105277302-7-day-lapland-adventure-king-crab-feast-northern-lights-husky-safaris-and-igloo-stays - WhatsApp concierge: https://wa.me/9779708072951
