Overview

What would you do if you wanted to experience an ultimate winter adventure? Well, of course, you would visit Santa's village and try husky and reindeer sleigh rides!

Tour starts with a hotel pickup and a ride to Santa Claus Village. In the village, you can visit the Elves’ Post Office and send greetings to a friend using the official Arctic Circle stamp. After the visit to Posti, we will take you for a ceremonial Arctic Circle crossing. This is considered to be a special place, where there's no stress and no bad vibes, so the legends say that one who crosses the Arctic Circle will have a lifetime of joy.

We assume you have some things to say to Santa Claus, so we're going to take you to Santa's office to meet the man in red himself! There will be plenty of time to check out other facilities, grab a coffee and to get a present from a gift shop before we head on to our next stop - a 0.5km reindeer sleigh ride and 2km husky safari...!
