Rovaniemi Full-Day City Tour

We will meet at 29 Maakuntakatu at the indicated time and head to the foothills of Ounasvaara Fell, where you can choose to climb to the top. Next, enjoy a 500-metre sled ride pulled by huskies and a brief 400-metre reindeer sleigh ride, followed by coffee and biscuits to warm up.

Then, visit Santa Claus Village for a delicious buffet lunch and a chance to meet Santa, along with photo opportunities at the Arctic Circle. Afterward, proceed to the Arktikum Museum, which focuses on the ice age, the Aurora Borealis, Arctic wildlife, and the indigenous Sami people. The museum is notable for its design, featuring a 564-foot-long glass corridor.

Finally, return to the meeting point in Rovaniemi to conclude your day.
