Rovaniemi is the capital of Lapland in northern Finland, and is known as the "official hometown of Santa Claus". Home to Santa Claus Village, a year-round Christmas themed attraction, this is heaven on earth for festive fanatics. Besides the Christmas festivities, Rovaniemi is also a great springboard from which to explore the Ranua Wildlife Park and the Arkitikum Science Museum.

You will also be able to observe the incredible spectacle of the Northern Lights that illuminate the sky of Finnish Lapland. Breathe in the purest air in Europe and dive into a country where 70% of the territory is covered with forest areas.

Entry Requirements 

You must ensure you have a valid passport to travel on.

Brexit
