I love seeing new places, going on holiday and travelling with my family. Travel and kids may not always seem like the best idea but in the last few years I have learnt so much from it and now it feels so natural and each time we go I am eager to get away again on the next adventure. Whether it is a holiday in the UK or abroad we have fun whatever we get up to and it is always the highlight of my year and we love sharing this with you. You will also find tips and tricks, destination and tour ideas, recommendations (from both myself and companies) and eco-conscious travel.

An Honest Review of The Searching For Santa Experience at The Northern Lights Village

Posted on January 5, 2025March 2, 2025 by Emma Reed

We have recently returned from a dream DIY trip to Lapland where we had such a magical time we really didn’t want to come home. During our 5 night stay, we booked the Searching for Santa experience at the Northern Lights Village in Levi for Christmas Day itself as a big treat for both of our boys – one who had his birthday that day too. I’d heard great things about this experience via a Lapland Facebook group I joined and looking at the website, it sounded like the ideal way to wrap up our special Christmas Day. As much fun as most of this 3 hour experience was, I did have some issues with parts of it and I am going to cover all of this in my honest review…

When we planned our DIY trip to Lapland, Husky sledding was right at the top of my must-do list. It has been a dream of mine since I was little and something I wished we had done during our visit to Tromso. Thankfully, these types of excursions are popular in Lapland with lots of companies providing this experience. We easily found and booked our family-friendly Husky safari via MANAWA and this is my honest review…

How We Planned our Amazing DIY Christmas Trip to Lapland

Lapland has always been on my travel dream list, even more so since having children but as we all know, having young children costs… a lot! And even though we had talked about making this trip happen years ago, we couldn’t ever afford to. This year, however, I decided we just had to go what with our eldest turning 11. So I carefully (and secretly) saved up and announced to my husband in September that life is too short and that we needed to organise a surprise Christmas trip to Lapland for the boys. He may have reluctantly agreed at the start but as soon as he started researching everything he was completely invested and between us we worked hard to make our DIY Lapland trip happen…
