Additional Information & Description

Santa Claus Village in Rovaniemi brings Christmas into every season, with a visit to Santa himself in his office. This three-and-a-half-hour trip takes you to his Finnish homeland for a festive outing that extends beyond the meeting, with time to explore the village and its Lappish traditions.

Visit Santa’s post office

At Santa’s post office, join the elves at work and send postcards to friends with a special stamp. It is a chance to make the village part of your Christmas correspondence rather than simply browse. The postal stamp gives each card a distinctive detail from the place where you sent it, making this a particularly personal part of the visit.

Cross the Arctic Circle

A white line painted across the park marks the Arctic Circle. Step across it to officially enter the Arctic area: the geographical boundary becomes something you can see and cross on foot. An Arctic Circle crossing certificate is included with the trip, giving you a record of that moment. You will also have a chance to see reindeer during the outing, adding another distinctly northern element to your village visit.

Browse Christmas and Lappish products

The village has Christmas and Lappish products to browse and take home. These give the shopping a regional focus alongside the seasonal theme, so your souvenirs can reflect both the festivities and the place you have visited. Christmas remains part of the village’s character throughout the year, rather than being limited to a December visit.

Enjoy a Finnish buffet lunch

Lunch is included and served at Santa’s restaurant. The traditional Finnish buffet brings local food into the outing alongside the village activities. A live English-speaking guide is also included for the trip.
