Your experience

A little closer to Lapland.

Explore the Santa Claus Village and ride snowmobiles through the forests of Arctic Circle to meet reindeer and huskies.

Explore the experience

Experience an arctic journey where you get to ride snowmobiles through stunning wilderness, meet enchanting reindeer, and energetic huskies, enjoy traditional salmon soup lunch (vegetarian option available) and explore the Santa Claus Village.

Your day will start with transportation to the reindeer experience area, where you will be able to ride your own reindeer sledge in a brief, 500m long ride. Your newly learned skills will be rewarded with a Reindeer Sledge Driver’s License! Next, make your way to the Alaskan Huskies where you will find these beautiful, loyal, and energetic companions. Experience the Alaskan Huskies in action on a 500m long sleigh ride.

Enjoy a traditional salmon soup lunch during your visit and listen to the local reindeer herders as they tell you more about the herding lifestyle and how it is to be a reindeer herder in the 21st century.

After the farm visit, your guide will provide snowmobile training before taking off on a 1-hour-long snowmobile adventure through Arctic Circle forests, and children under 150cm can try mini snowmobiling for 10 minutes on our mini-track. After the snowmobile journey, enjoy some free time to explore the Santa Claus Village. You have the opportunity to experience the Christmas atmosphere and step across the Arctic Circle. Your day will conclude as your guide drops you off back to Rovaniemi.
