VISITING Lapland UK can be more expensive than flying to the Arctic Circle.
Tickets to the festive experience this Saturday are selling for as much as £180 each.
There are no discounts for children, a £24.75 booking fee and £5.95 postage and packaging.
It means a family of five would have to spend more than £930 for their day out.
But a few days in the real Lapland, in northern Finland, can cost in the region of £600.
Lapland UK has a site in Siddington, Cheshire, and another in Ascot, Berks.
One dad, who asked not to be identified, said: “When I saw the price I spat my mulled wine out.
“It’s obscene pricing, meaning only rich kids get to have the thrill.”
Danielle Halliday said: “We went to Finland last year with two adults, two children.
“Flights were £250, accommodation was £350 for the four nights and going to see Santa is free, or €10 each for a present.
“You might as well go for the real thing for a cheaper price.”
Lapland UK was asked to comment.
