Come and experience the magical Santa Claus Village in Rovaniemi – the place where Santa Claus calls home! For ages, Santa has lived in Lapland and he loves the Arctic Circle because it’s where lots of Christmas secrets come from.
Santa Claus Village is a perfect family destination with loads of fun things to do. Get ready for an unforgettable visit!
We’ll start by picking you up from your hotel in Rovaniemi or from our office. Then, we’ll take a short ride to Santa Claus Village, where your friendly guide will be your personal Santa’s helper. He will show you all the amazing places here and take some wonderful pictures of you. Don’t worry – we’ll send those pictures to you later in the day so you can cherish these special moments.
First, we’ll visit Santa’s Post Office, where his little helpers are always busy. Then, we’ll go to the Arctic Circle line, and you can step across it. Our guide will make sure to take awesome pictures of this special moment.
You’ll also see the Roosevelt Cottage, which is the oldest building in Santa Claus Village. It was built in 1950 when Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt visited the Arctic Circle. It’s a cool piece of history.
When you get hungry, you can grab a snack or meal at one of the village restaurants (you’ll need to pay for this). After that, you’ll have some free time to explore the village on your own. You can buy souvenirs, check out cool shops, or even visit the reindeer farm for a small extra fee.
We’ll wrap up your Christmas adventure with a comfy ride back to your place in Rovaniemi, making sure your visit to Santa Claus Village is full of wonderful memories. This holiday season, come to the official hometown of Santa Claus and make it extra special!
Cold weather clothing will be provided, but we recommend to dress appropriately.
Hotel pick-ups commence 10 – 60 minutes prior to the start time. Your pick up time will be confirmed by email.
Please send an enquiry and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
