The best family activity that keeps you excited the whole day and gives you a balance between a guided tour, good food and exploring Santa Claus Village on your own!
You will start the morning on snowmobiles and you will be arriving at the local reindeer farm on snowmobiles. Once there, take the reins and experience a short reindeer sleigh ride. You will be awarded a reindeer driving license! After that, it is time to jump on the snowmobiles again and explore the forest tracks around the Arctic Circle. As morning turns to afternoon, you will enjoy a guided tour of Santa Claus Village to get all the best secrets and your personal Arctic Circle Crossing certificate, followed by a delicious lunch. After lunch, it’s time to explore the village on our own, buy souvenirs, send postcards from Santa’s post or visit the big man himself, Santa.
