Santa Claus and Reindeer Experience by Snowmobile
Santa Claus and Reindeer Experience by Snowmobile
After being picked up from your selected meeting point at the indicated time, you'll begin your excursion to a winter wonderland, where the dreams of children and adults alike become reality... From the city center, we'll travel by bus or minibus to the home of the one and only Santa Claus.
Santa Claus Village is one of the main reasons that thousands of tourists travel to Lapland each year. The picturesque wooden houses on the outskirts of Rovaniemi, and more specifically, their extraordinary residents, make this area of Finland totally magical. Of course, you can't see such a special place any old way - no, you'll explore the village on a snowmobile!
As you speed over the snow, pass the mystical forests of Lapland and enjoy the spectacular snowy scenery of this region, where winter lasts seven months of the year. We'll continue the tour around the village, driving the snowmobiles to a reindeer and husky farm, where you can embark on an 800-metre (0.5-mile) husky sleigh ride and a 700-metre (0.4-mile) reindeer sleigh ride!
Then, we'll return to Santa Claus Village, where you'll have free time to explore and have lunch on your own. You'll also have the opportunity to cross the Arctic Circle, which cuts through the village. Don't forget to close your eyes and make a wish!
Finally, from Santa Claus Village, we'll return by bus or minibus to the starting point, where arrival is scheduled 6 hours after pickup.
