So after a year of waiting it was finally our turn for the TUI search for Santa day trip to the snow village on Sunday.. here are my thoughts and tips 🤩 took my 10 year old son on my own and it was super easy to get around and all well organised…🇫🇮🎄🎅 Very long day and early start, we booked an airport hotel the night before and checked in online, this meant we got to the airport about 2 hrs before which was plenty as no luggage.… The flight out with TUI was fun and full on 😂 the staff were dressed up, lots of Christmas games and music plus snacks and food 👍🏻 Arrived and straight to get our suits from the warehouse (had our own boots and glad we did!) very well organised and were one of the first out… lots of helpful elves about to help with anything 😂 Waited on the bus for about 40 mins which was a shame as we waited for one family to get sorted 🙄 so that was time lost… About a 25 min drive to the resort, given times for lunch and Santa then off to explore ourselves…. Loved it all, unfortunately couldn’t do the snow mobiles as my 10 year old was a few cm too small 🙄 this was a real shame as it was the longest taster session and given no option to have a sleigh behind… loved the huskies (very short about 30 seconds) lots of other activities to do such as sledging, football in the snow, snow ball fights etc! The sleigh ride to see Santa was just magical in the dark through the forests and we were impressed with Santa and the cabin too! 🎅 Tips… it was minus 22!! Take spare of everything, I thought I’d packed too much but we got through it all as it snowed the entire time so all hats, scarves, etc got very wet quickly! Didn’t use the hand warmers id packed…my hair froze, lashes and brows 😂 plus iceicles form every time you breath in your nose! I wore glasses which also constantly steamed up 🤷🏻‍♀️🙈 we wore base thermals plus jumper and fleece, leggings and joggers and suits and just warm enough in those temperatures ❄️🥶 no chance of the lights unfortunately as snowing, however managed to capture a glimpse in one of my pics still! 🤩 Flight home seemed very long as we were very tired (you feel like you’ve been blasted by the cold weather!) 😂 but got home ok and back in bed in the UK by 1am ish… Overall a magical day, did everything we wanted and what an experience…could not fault TUI and we got a really good deal booking a year in advance, would do it all over again if I could! 🤩

What a great way to start a new year. We visited the snow village with our family and really enjoyed all the snow and ice sculptures. This place is really a piece of art and shows a great craftsmanship. The service was nice and polite. After the tour in the village we had a dinner in the restaurant. There is two options for dining the inside restaurant and the ice restaurant. The food was good (nothing special) and the service I the restaurant was very good.

I thought that this was pretty average and it didn't do much for me although my wife thought that it was good. I wandered through several ice rooms that were supposed to be representing different places in the world. Some of the rooms had beds in and I was thinking that anyone that stayed here for a night must be off their trolley. It would not be something that I would pay for. There was a bar in one of the rooms. There was a café and an ice restaurant. Well they certainly won't run out of ice for the drinks will they? It's not my thing but some people will like it. As I said, my wife liked it.

Well it was nice experience but to be honest it was a bit suffering cold and eating. The only problem was feet, if there was small thing can separate your feet from the floor it gets better(like small peace of wood). I had the most delicious reindeer there in my one week travel in levi. Make sure to eat it fast because it becomes cold really fast.
