ABOUT ROVANIEMI
Rovaniemi is the capital of Finnish Lapland and the official hometown of Santa Claus. Located in the southern part of Lapland, it is easily accessible by train, bus or plane from Helsinki. Every year, millions of tourists visit Rovaniemi to enjoy its beautiful Winter landscape, experience its Christmas atmosphere and meet its most famous resident, Santa Claus!
Because Rovaniemi is a popular destination, you may need to book long in advance your accommodations and activities (especially in December). Also, you will easily find many tour operators to organise a guided safari but we recommend to carefully select the tour operator as you may easily end up in big coaches with hundreds of tourists…
Overall, Rovaniemi is a great location to start a long trip around Lapland (this is why most of our trips depart from there). If your time is limited, this is also a good destination where you will find a lot of activity options to experience Lapland.
