Activities FAQs
How easy is it to drive a snowmobile?
It’s easy once you’ve had the safety briefing from your guide. To drive, you must be over 18 and hold a full photo card driving licence.
Each snowmobile can carry two people, one driver and one passenger, provided the passenger is over 14 years old, can reach the footrests, and hold on securely.
If you’d prefer to have your own snowmobile without a passenger, you can book a single driver supplement.
It’s also possible to ride in a sleigh pulled behind the guide’s snowmobile, though this must be requested in advance and is subject to availability.
Is there time to go skiing?
Yes, there is time to go downhill skiing on the ‘Adventure Day’ on the Santa's Magic and Santa's Aurora Packages three night breaks.
How do I book optional adventures and can these be booked in resort?
Book at the same time as your holiday, after you've booked via 'Manage Your Booking' or call us.
Our optional adventures are available to book on our two and three night experiences on both Santa's Magic and Santa's Aurora.
On our two night trips, Northern lights adventures, if pre-booked will usually take place on the first evening. Most other adventures can be booked for the morning of your last day.
Please see each adventure page for details. If you wish to book any last minute activities in resort our Destination Experts are there to help, however these are subject to availability so we reccommend to pre-book these in advance to avoid disappointment.
When booking optional adventures while in resort you may be paying in the local currency, therefore the price can vary.
Are activity vouchers issued?
Yes. You'll receive your vouchers in the welcome pack given to you locally in resort by our team (not in your pre-departure pack). These voucher/s confirm any optional activities you've pre-booked, including the date and time. You'll also see details of your pre-brooked activities on your invoices.
