    Rovaniemi holidays are all about sleighing through the snow, eating top-notch grub and getting your fill of Finnish scenery.

    Arctic escape

    From parks perfect for snowball fights to cosy cafes, Lapland's capital city Rovaniemi has the lot. This is the place for once-in-a-lifetime thrills, including husky rides and Northern Lights tours. It's also the official home of Santa Claus, so visits truly are like stepping into a Christmas card.

    Adventures big and small

    Rovaniemi's a snowboarder's paradise with its endless blanket of white stretching in all directions. Alternatively, for a real wilderness adventure, try an ice-fishing trip on a frozen Arctic lake. Meanwhile, foodies can get their thrills indoors – hearty grills, delectable cheeses and butter-drenched salmon dishes rule the restaurants here.

    Furry friends

    It's hard not to fall in love with the local wildlife around these parts – head out on a Lapland safari to glimpse reindeer in their natural habitat. Sleigh rides are top of the to-do list in this neighbourhood, and for many, just meeting the friendly huskies is a firm trip highlight.

    Classic Lapland 3 or 4-night Trip

    Fly To Rovaniemi – Stay In Rovaniemi

    Day 1
    After touching down in Lapland’s capital, you’ll be kitted out with all your snow clothes. Then, Santa’s elves will take you to your accommodation and you’ll have the rest of the day to explore.

    Day 2
    Today focuses on fun-filled festivities. You can expect to be getting involved with activities like meeting Santa and graduating from Elf School. You’ll get to experience being pulled by a snowmobile, and have a short husky ride. Plus, you'll get to have a go with a toboggan. Lunch is included in the day as well, unless you're a guest at Hotel Winter Wonderland – you'll get lunch at your hotel.

    Day 3
    Today is yours to spend how you like - why not sign up for a reindeer safari or go on an Elf Adventure?

    Guests on 3-night trips will enjoy Day 4’s activities today instead.

    Day 4
    There's plenty of free time today to explore at your leisure. Then, in the evening, you’ll be treated to a festive meal in a dining room decked out with banquet tables and Christmas decorations.


    Classic Lapland can be teamed with any of our accommodation in Rovaniemi. The order of events may change slightly from trip to trip, but all the activities will be included at some point during your holiday.

    If you want to celebrate Christmas Day in Rovaniemi, book our 4-night trip. Flights leave on the 22nd December.
