    Asked on December 14th, 2025

    Is there anything special planned for Christmas Day on the tour?

    Other
    Tour Details
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten December 2025

      The itinerary is not significantly affected by Christmas Day. Some shops or attractions may have limited hours, but included activities and transport continue as planned. While there is no formal Christmas event scheduled, spending Christmas in Lapland creates a naturally festive atmosphere, and your leader may suggest local or seasonal experiences on the day.

    Asked on August 28th, 2025

    How many hours of daylight for December tours? Is there sufficient daylight hours for winter activities?

    Other
    Tour Details
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten August 2025

      During the winter months, Lapland experiences very short daylight hours – in December there are usually only a few hours of twilight-like light each day. While it may sound limiting, our itineraries are designed with this in mind, and there is still sufficient light for planned winter activities.

    Anne

    Asked on June 10th, 2024

    How much is a single supplement, and which dates are they available?

    Price / Availability
    Single supplement
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten June 2024

      A single supplement is available for $990 if you'd prefer not to share a room on this trip, subject to availability at the time of booking. The price of the single supplement does not include the night of Day 2 - Overnight Train. Due to the small properties we use in Europe there is only a limited amount of single supplements available per trip departure.
