Looking for the perfect romantic retreat this Valentine's Day? What could be better than relaxing at a Lapland spa or a spectacular short break to Iceland staying in one of the country's most luxurious hotels?
Both brand new offerings for 2015 from Taber Holidays, 'The Lapland Indulgence' and the' Luxury Short Break to Iceland' tours are perfect for those couples seeking somewhere special this February 14th.
For a real Arctic indulgence aimed at total rejuvenation, the four-night 'Lapland Indulgence' break to Kiruna in Sweden has a firm emphasis on relaxation including a holistic spa bucket experience in the sensational Ripan Spa.
Guests can indulge their senses with a bucket full of wonderful treatments applied by themselves at their own pace, in between relaxing in the pool, unwinding in the sauna or enjoying a glass or two of wine or a cool smoothie. Treatments include an aromatic coffee scrub for the face and hands, a footbath of juniper salt and lemon, an exfoliating body scrub of newly sprouted birch leaves and soothing pine-scented body oil. All products in the spa bucket are made from natural ingredients, completely free of preservatives, and are based on ancient Swedish, Sami and Torne Valley medicinal knowledge.
The short break also features an afternoon of reindeer sledding and activities with the Sami people, an evening of Northern Lights hunting plus gourmet dinner at the Abisko Sky Station and a morning visit to the world-famous ICEHOTEL for a guided tour and lunch.
Prices start from £1,685pp and include flights from London Heathrow to Kiruna via Stockholm, transfers, accommodation at the beautiful Ripan Lodge with breakfast and dinner, the Spa Bucket experience, visit to the Aurora Sky Station, trip to the Icehotel and the reindeer encounter. Based on two sharing. Departs Thursday 12th or Friday 13th February 2015.
Taber's 'Luxury Short Break to Iceland' is well-suited to those who want to get out and explore the country's fascinating lunar landscape by day, returning to the comfort of the stunning and newly-built Hotel Grímsborgir. Situated near the UNESCO World Heritage listed Thingvellir National Park, the hotel is the perfect place to relax. Guests can enjoy an outdoor hot tub as the Northern Lights dance overhead or indulge in some fine cuisine. Based in the heart of the 'Golden Circle', the hotel is extremely close to some of Iceland's most popular attractions including the spectacular Gullfoss Waterfall and the Geyser geothermal area. This four-night self-drive break costs from £1,345pp and includes flights from London Heathrow to Keflavik with Icelandair, car hire with unlimited mileage and accommodation at Hotel Grímsborgir on a half-board basis.
