  • Itinerary – Helsinki, Northern Lights And Igloo Experience

    Day 1 – HELSINKI

    Welcome to Finland, the Land of a Thousand Lakes!
    Your private transfer will take you to your hotel in the city centre upon arrival.
    Check into your hotel and rest of the day is at leisure.
    Take a stroll around the vibrant seaside city, the beautiful islands and great green urban areas. Helsinki marches to a wonderful and unique beat of its own with dynamic food, design, architecture – and sauna!

    Overnight in the Sokos Presidentti Hotel or similar

    Day 2 – HELSINKI

    Breakfast at your hotel.  Today you will enjoy a Panoramic tour of Helsinki (shared excursion) – a popular sightseeing tour showing you the most important sights and giving you an excellent view of Helsinki’s past and present. The tour takes you to the most interesting parts of Helsinki, such as the historical centre, City Hall, The Parliament buildings, Finlandia Hall and the Opera House. The bus stops at the Temppeliaukio Church (Rock Church) or at the Sibelius Monument (if the church is closed) for 20 min.

    Evening departure to Rovaniemi by train, the Santa Claus Express.

    Overnight on board the train.

    Day 3 – ARRIVAL IN ROVANIEMI

    Light breakfast on board the train, after which you will transfer to your hotel to join the ‘Aurora Borealis and Glass Igloo’ tour.

    Rovaniemi is the capital of Finnish Lapland and Lapland is as close as it gets to reality for those who dream of a winter wonderland. Lapland is the place of contrasts, where 24-hour sunlight in the summer replaces the dark winter days and the hustle and bustle of towns is just minutes away from the peace and quiet of the wild wilderness.

    Overnight at Scandic Rovanemi/Pohjanhovi Hotel or similar (Please note you may not be able to check in before 15.00 hrs)

    Day 4 – SANTA’S VILLAGE & REINDEER SLED RIDE

    After breakfast at the hotel, you will start your day by immersing yourself into the magic of Lapland. First stop today is Santa Claus Village located on the Arctic Circle. You will participate in the traditional ceremony of crossing the Arctic Circle and receive a diploma certifying your visit.

    After the ceremony, you will experience a reindeer sled at the Santa Claus Village and enjoy a hot drink around the fire. After the reindeer sled, there is free time for you to explore the village and meet the local star, Santa Claus, in his official home. Free time for lunch.

    You can also visit Santa’s post office to send a letter to yourself or to a loved one, with the official stamp of Santa. Browse the souvenir shops and enjoy the magic atmosphere in the village.

    Santa Claus Village

    Transfer back to your hotel

    Overnight at Scandic Rovanemi/Pohjanhovi Hotel or similar

    Day 5 – HUSKIES & THE POLAR ZOO OF RANUA

    Breakfast in the hotel.

    Our first stop today is at a Husky Farm, where you will learn all you need to know about huskies and their way of living. After the introduction, take a ride on a mini husky safari (3 km) with a musher. After the ride you will have some time to meet and photograph these beautiful dogs and ask all the questions you may have with regards to the huskies.

    Free time for lunch (not included)

    Our next visit is to the Northern-most zoo in the world, Ranua. Your guide will take you on a brisk walk outdoors to admire the Arctic wildlife in their genuine wilderness setting. Elk, reindeer, wolverines, arctic fox and of course the impressive polar bear can be found in this Zoo.

    Afterwards there is a little free time for chocolate lovers to visit the shop of the famous Finnish Fazer chocolates.

    Return to your hotel.
