Top places to visit
1. Santa Claus Village
Many people book a trip to Santa Claus Village to meet the real Santa Claus in the flesh, perhaps for the first time in their lives. According to Finnish tradition, Santa Claus comes to the village on Christmas Eve to take a short break on his long journey, sing Christmas carols with children and drink a glass of glögi before giving out presents and getting back on his way – he is happy to meet visitors who come to see him! Surprise your kids by organising a trip to Santa Claus Village in Rovaniemi, in the Arctic Circle.
