Discover an Arctic wonderland high above the Arctic Circle in Sweden. Admire works of art at Icehotel —one of the world’s most famous hotels— before relaxing at a beautiful and cosy guesthouse, away from the hustle and bustle of busy life. Drive your own reindeer sled, steer a team of husky dogs through the wilderness, fish through the ice and search for the magical northern lights on this incredible winter adventure.

Day 1 | Arrive in Sweden
Arrive in Swedish Lapland and transfer to one of the world’s most incredible hotels. Featured on BBC’s Amazing Hotels: Life Beyond the Lobby Icehotel must be seen to be believed. Check in to your warm hotel room for two nights.

After breakfast, try your hand at ice sculpting. You’ll be given a short instruction and all the tools you’ll need. In the afternoon it is possible to learn the art of reindeer sledding, where you can enjoy a sled ride before gathering around an open fire in a traditional Sámi lávvu tent for coffee and to taste the Sámi signature dish souvas.
