Lapland trips can be super expensive, that's why we want to share this unique experience with you. A 3-night trip with flights, hotel and return sleeper train coming in at £137.50 per person.

In January (which should have decent snow and chances to catch to Northern Lights), you can fly to Helsinki for £64 return... now, here's the fun part.

You can take an overnight train from Helsinki to Lapland, Finland, where Santa's home is. The train route is referred to as the Santa Claus Express and is a double-decker train that offers sleeper cabins for overnight stays. We've priced up a return trip from 59 Eur (around £51).

Hotels in Lapland are also expensive in January, so by taking the sleeper train, you can wake up there and depart the same evening. Hotels in Helsinki are much cheaper, and we've found one from £55 for the first night of the trip.

Additional Information

We might be pirates, but we’re an honest bunch. We check all our deals when we review them to make sure everything is available. However, with deals this hot, things change quickly—flight prices fluctuate, hotel rooms sell out, currencies yo-yo. And just so you know, local taxes might still apply – even treasure has its fine print. But mainly, demand for the best deals means the lowest prices don’t last long. If you’ve missed out this time, don’t worry, we’re working on more great offers.
