This holiday is all about the best winter activities in Lapland. Luleå is a picturesque coastal city with a stunning archipelago made of 900 tiny islands. You may have the opportunity to explore this amazing Lapland location by snowmobile or hover craft. Luleå is also the best place to test your driving skills on an ice track! We will then take you further north to Kiruna for huskies, snowmobiles and better opportunites to catch the Northern Lights.
Please remember we do tailor make our holidays and this itinerary is here to feed your imagination! To get the most out of your activities we do recommend 3 nights in Luleå & 3 nights in Kiruna.
Suggested itinerary – recommended January to April
Days 1 to 4
Luleå – Lapland (3 nights)
Guided transfer from the airport to Luleå and during the winter months you can expect to find this picturesque city blanketed in snow. You will stay at Stadshotellet in the heart of Luleå. Between January and April the hundreds of islands that make up the Luleå archipelago become more accessible as thick ice connects these tiny islands and ice roads are ploughed into the ice. We have several excurions that we recommend during your stay in Luleå. You can choose between many different tours. Our recommendations include a unique hovercraft tour or an ice breaker tour both through the frozen archipelago.
Days 4 to 7
Hotel Arctic Eden, Kiruna – Lapland (3 nights)
Take a scenic 4hr train journey between Luleå and Kiruna through ancient snow covered forests. You will be met at Kiruna Station by a representative from Arctic Eden.

This hotel is perfect for those seeking a little bit of luxury with a Sami theme during your winter holiday in Lapland.

A full program of winter activities can be found at Arctic Eden including huskies, snowmobiles, northern lights and much more!
