“I book the tour with my family 2 adulti and 2 kids of 6 and 8 years old. The pick up and transport was really good well prepared and served. The guide contact us the day before confirming pick up address and departure time. The first stop at husky farm was good. it has been explained deep the husky life at farm and we took a small sleight with dogs. reindeer ride took place at santa villaggio. This wasnt the expected activity and really turistic. nothing comparable with Husky. Worst thing tried in Rovaniemi. At the end of the day the guide pick us up at 8 pm driving to…”

Review of Rovaniemi’s Arctic Delight tour, combining Santa Claus Village, lunch, snowmobiling, and a reindeer farm visit in one winter day.
“Wir hatten das Glück mit unserem Guide Hugo eine private Tour zu machen, in Santa Claus Village hat er uns erst einmal eingeführt und uns zu Santa begleitet und gemeinsam Buffet gegessen. Danach ging es zur snowmobiltour, bei der er uns zu einem tollen Spot auf dem Berg brachte um die Zeit und das traumhafte Wetter etwas zu nutzen. Mit dem snowmobil über den gefrorenen Fluss zur Rentierfarm konnten wir bei einem Schamanenritual dabei sein und eine kleine Tour mit den rentieren genieße und diese abschließend Füttern. Kekse und Heißgetränk gab es zum Abschluss. Wir empfehlen es absolut und würden es wieder machen!”
Review of Rovaniemi’s Santa Village tour with Santa, reindeer and husky rides, guide support, transport, costs, timing and booking advice.
“Our tour guide was amazing! The village is well laid out and designed for a memorable holiday experience. Highly recommend going to the Santa's pets section (not part of the tour.) Also, the salmon meal hut was worth the chilly wait outside. If you have younger children, they might appreciate the reindeer and husky rides more. It was fun watching the dogs' excitement running in the snow. We were able to walk through the area where the dogs live and they are beautiful to watch. Time is built in to purchase notecards, write notes, and have them mailed with "Santa" postmarks which was a nice touch. It was also helpful…”

“Netter Guide, gute Betreuung und einwandfreie Organisation mit Abholung direkt beim Hotel. Alles in allem mehr ein Einblick für Kurzentschlossene, als eine Safari. Immerhin war dies in der Hochsaison eine etwas überteuerte Skip-the-Line Möglichkeit, eine Runde Husky- und eine Runde Rentierschlittenfahrt im Santa-Claus-Village zu erhalten, ohne lange Anstehzeiten inkl. danach noch mehr als genügend Aufenthaltszeit im rege besuchten Erlebnispark. Je nach Zeit und Erwartungen somit bedingt zu empfehlen.”
Review of a private Rovaniemi tour with Santa Claus Village, city sights, hotel pickup, Arctic Circle crossing, and Santa photo download.
“We were met and treated better than anyone could expect. The Riekko Chalet where we stayed was excellent, clean and with all possible amenities. Many possible routes for walking and skiing resort is 5 minutes away. Normund is very helpful and positive, will always have a big smile around him😁👍 Will definitely come again 😊”
Review of Levi’s Santa Claus Village day trip: Rovaniemi transfer, Arctic Circle, Snowman World, lunch, costs, timing, and tips.
“Het is veel geld voor wat je krijgt. Wij hadden een busje voor onszelf, we waren met 6 personen. Lunch was karig en pas om 2 uur, half 3 vertrokken we alweer terug naar ons hotel. Gids was er niet, maar goed, bezoek aan Santa was fantastisch. Let op tijdens het bezoek aan Santa mag je zelf geen foto’s maken. Als je ze wilt moet je kooen. Je koopt dan een link zodat je ze zelf kunt downloaden. 2 foyo’s en een videoflimpje, € 60,00.”
Pick a fell, an animal, or something frozen.
