Day 1: Fly overnight from the US to Helsinki Your Arctic adventure begins. Board your overnight flight and get ready to swap city lights for the magic of Lapland.
Day 2: Touch down in Helsinki Welcome to Finland’s stylish capital. Check into your hotel, grab a cinnamon bun from a local café, and stroll through the cobbled streets or warm up in a lakeside sauna. It is the calm before the snow-dusted magic kicks off.
Day 3: Overnight train to Rovaniemi on the Santa Claus Express All aboard the overnight Santa Claus Express, a dreamy night train that glides through frozen forests straight to the North Pole. Cozy cabin, midnight snacks, and views straight out of a fairytale.
