Make your trip to Rovaniemi unforgettable with this reindeer sleigh ride experience. The capital of Lapland is the perfect place to meet Santa's helpers!

Reindeer Sleigh Ride

At the scheduled time, we'll meet at the hotel or the selected meeting point in the center of Rovaniemi during booking. We will proceed to a reindeer farm?, where Finnish shepherds care for and train these polar animals, the only domesticated deer species.

During the visit, caretakers will share insights about daily life at a reindeer farm and some curiosities about Santa's famous helpers. Their herds can exceed one hundred members.

After interacting with the reindeer, we will embark on a sleigh ride through the snowy forests surrounding the farm, enjoying the white trails and frosted trees that enhance the experience. The ride lasts 40 minutes.

At the end of the ride, a snack and a traditional warm drink from the region will be served as we continue to engage with the reindeer. Finally, we will return you to the meeting point in Rovaniemi, concluding the tour after 2.5 to 3 hours together.
