Rovaniemi, the capital of Lapland, is also known as the hometown of Santa Claus. The city is surrounded by arctic nature, full of Lappish culture and a wide range of activities. On your arrival at the airport a driver will wait for you in the arrivals hall holding a sign with your name on it and will drive you to your accommodation. The journey takes about 10 minutes.

Start your day by exploring Rovaniemi city on your own or head out to Santa Claus Village. There you’ll finally get to meet Santa Claus and visit the Official Santa’s Post Office where you can write and send letters to friends and family. You can also receive your certificate of crossing the arctic circle there and of course you will have plenty of options for souvenir shopping, there are a lot of shops there. As visiting Santa’s village is free and it’s very crowded there during winter months we don’t offer this as a tour but we suggest you visit this on your own.  That way you can stay there as long as you want and spend your time on whatever you like to do the most.

In the evening you will take part of this once-in-a-lifetime experience and feel the lightness of your body while floating on an Arctic lake. During this Aurora tour you will be in a high-quality rescue suit that covers your whole body and keeps you dry, so no need to worry about the cold. After you arrive at the lake, you are given safety instructions and once suited up, you can take a dip in the icy lake and admire the sky above you. Please do remember that northern lights are a natural phenomenon and we can’t guarantee that you will see them.
