Discover the highlights of Rovaniemi, the capital of Lapland. Enjoy a sleigh ride, explore the Arktikum Museum, visit Santa Claus, and cross the Arctic Circle on this full-day tour!

Rovaniemi Full-Day City Tour

The tour begins with hotel pickup and takes you to the foothills of Ounasvaara Fell. You have the option to climb to the top. Next, enjoy a 500-metre sled ride pulled by huskies and a 400-metre reindeer sleigh ride. Warm up with coffee and biscuits afterward.

Next, visit Santa Claus Village for a buffet lunch and meet Father Christmas. You can deliver a letter to him personally, and take a photo crossing the Arctic Circle.
