  • Overview – Rovaniemi Tour – Winter Express 2023

    Welcome to Lapland – the perfect place to relax and at the same time live exciting moments by trying out various activities such as snowmobiling, reindeer safaris or dog sledding on our 5 Day Rovaniemi Tour.

    Our Rovaniemi Tour to the capital of Lapland and Santa’s official home! Located on the Arctic Circle, this small town is perfect for individuals and families, and offers a wide range of first-class services to visitors.  Our Rovaniemi Tour is a great winter short break.  Prices from only €850 per person.

  • Itinerary – Rovaniemi Tour – Winter Express 2023

    Day 1 – Arrival to Rovaniemi

    Welcome to Finland – the land of a thousand lakes.

    Arrive in Rovaniemi, the capital of Finnish Lapland. Lapland is as close as reality gets to those who dream of a winter wonderland. Contrasts are a key factor in the allure of Lapland where 24-hour sunlight in the summer replaces the dark days of winter. The hustle and bustle of towns and ski resorts is just minutes away from the peace and quiet of the wilderness.

    Make your own way to the hotel and check in. The rest of the evening is at leisure.

    Overnight in Rovaniemi, Scandic Pohjanhovi Hotel or similar

    Day 2 – Rovaniemi – Snowmobile Safari

    Breakfast at the hotel before the day continues with some adrenaline! Take part in an exciting snowmobile safari. This snowmobile adventure offers a fantastic opportunity to learn how to master the art of driving a snowmobile. During the safari, we stop to enjoy hot drinks and the silence of the wild.

    This afternoon is at leisure, or join one of our optional tours. For example, try our popular Reindeer safari. Relax in a sleigh, take photos of the nature around you and listen to the sound of the reindeer caravan.

    Overnight in Rovaniemi, Scandic Pohjanhovi Hotel or similar

    Day 3 – Rovaniemi – Husky ride and visit to Santa Claus village

    After breakfast at the hotel, start the day by immersing yourself in the magic of Lapland. Your first stop is the Santa Claus Village, located on the Arctic Circle.

    Enjoy Lapland’s beautiful nature from your dog sled ride. You can relax and take in the calming scenery and surrounding silence while the guide is driving the husky team. After the ride you can warm up by an open fire and spend some time with the husky dogs. On arrival at the Santa Claus Village, you have free time to explore and meet the locals, including Santa Claus himself, in his official home.

    Santa Claus Village

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

    This evening, get ready for another included activity: an Aurora Evening. In Finland, they call the Northern Lights the ‘Fire of the Fox’. Enjoy the fresh winter air while you might be lucky enough to see the Northern Lights flickering in the night sky. We take you by car to a nearby viewing area, where you will have the best chance of seeing the lights. During the evening, you will learn about nature in the Arctic, and enjoy stories about the culture and history of the local people. You will have a chance to try on snowshoes and enjoy hot drinks and toasting marshmallows on the open fire. At the end of the tour, return to the city by bus. Whilst we can never guarantee you’ll see the Northern Lights, this is still a beautiful evening in the polar outdoors.

    Overnight in Rovaniemi, Scandic Pohjanhovi Hotel or similar

    Day 4 – Rovaniemi Free Day

    After breakfast, today is at leisure or to enjoy some optional excursions (not included).

    Enjoy Rovaniemi and its surrounding as you wish! Why not discover the magnificent Arktikum Museum and learn about the Sami, the original people of Lapland. Or alternatively, enjoy one of the many activities available in the area, such as snowshoeing, ice-fishing or a northern light hunt.

    You can go shopping in town, or take a walk along the banks of the Ounasjoki River, to enjoy the winter landscapes of Lapland. Please don’t hesitate to ask your tour escort for suggestions, he or she is there to make sure you enjoy Lapland to the fullest!

    Overnight in Rovaniemi, Scandic Pohjanhovi Hotel or similar

    Day 5 – End of Tour

    After breakfast, the morning is at leisure.
    Make your own way to the airport for your onward flight. (Transfer can be arranged at additional cost)
