Activity description
Since Rovaniemi is known as the birthplace of Santa Claus, visiting a reindeer farm might just be one of the best ways to enjoy the world's top Christmas destination! During this 2.5-hour experience, you'll make friends with the adorable reindeer and even have the chance to feed them.
After meeting your guide, and of course, the reindeer, the adventure begins! If snow conditions are favourable, you'll enjoy the outdoors while being seated in a comfortable sleigh and bundled under a blanket while pulled by a reindeer. In addition, you'll be treated to warm drinks and snacks around a crackling fire in a traditional 'kota', a small wooden cabin in the woods. Your guide will share stories about the traditions and beliefs of the Sami people as well as the importance of the reindeer in their culture.
This perfect family-friendly activity is an excellent and relaxing way to enjoy the beautiful Lapland winter!
