FIRST-CLASS | TAILOR-MADE: Finland is an Arctic treasure. On this quick getaway, discover the vibrant design of modern Helsinki before jetting up north to the Finnish Lapland to experience an incredible arctic resort.


This 5-day tour takes you from the upscale modernism of capital Helsinki to the remote northern paradise of Finnish Lapland.

Helsinki is one of the world’s most modern cities with a vibrant arts culture. Whether you’re a design aficionado who admires cutting-edge artwork or simply love relaxing in cafes and enjoying some of Europe’s best coffee, you’ll find plenty to keep you occupied. Visit the imposing Suomenlinna or “Fortress of Finland,” a massive stone structure straddling a cluster of islands. Stroll through the Design District and treat yourself to antiques, art galleries, and some of the world’s leading design exhibitions. Take in an opera at the Finnish National Opera House or admire the craftsmanship of the Temppeliaukio or “Church of the Rock,” a stunning sanctuary carved out of solid rock.

After enjoying the cosmopolitan lifestyle of Helsinki, head up to the far north of the country in Finnish Lapland. Stay at Kakslauttanen, the world’s foremost arctic resort. Visit nearby Urho Kekkonen National Park and drink straight from the crystal clear streams. Go for a dip in the icy water or relax in the world’s largest smoke sauna. Or simply enjoy the comforts of your glass igloo and gaze up through the skylight at the majesty of the Northern Lights. Bask in an environment where the sky seems to reach down and touch you. It’s an experience you won’t get anywhere else in the world.
