It is a destination like no others. Make sure you stay in the village till after dark, to see the stunning colors of the buildings, snow and trees, when they are hit with different color lights.
Hi, if you want to stay on a budget, I suggest that you buy food from the supermarket, and take some with you to the village. If you rent an Airbnb, or stay in a hotel ( if you stay in a hotel, make sure they have a fridge in the room before you book), it will cost you around $300.00-$500.00 for 3 nights in Rovaniemi on an average, even though, you can go much higher. For transportation: You can rent a car at a cost of $50.00 per day and up, or you can take a bus in the morning to the village, and come back at night by an Uber, if you want to stay late, and I have all the prices, and schedules, in the Video: Overnight First Class Cabin on an Arctic Sleeper Train. I will also suggest to come back early one day from the village, and try one of the many restaurants in Rovaniemi. Also remember that they have a few restaurants in the village itself, including a Pizza restaurant if you don't want to spent much. Hope that would help.
Hi, I bought the ticket for the husky from the main building at Santa Claus Village. If you check minute 0:34 of the video, you can see the office where I bought that ticket from, but if you check minute 0:48 of the video, and pay attention to what the girl said to me, you realize that there was some misinformation is what she said. I bought the ticket around 10:30 AM, but when I walked to the area where they have the husky ride, they told me that the first opening was at 2:30 PM, and everything else before that time, was solid booked. This is like 4 hours waiting when the day is fairly short in the winter in Finland. Luckily I went to Santa Salmon Place, which was very close to the Husky ride area, and had a grilled salmon. I avoided the long wait line since I went before 12:00 noon to eat there, so it worked out fine in my case. The reindeer deer ticket, I bought it from the village too, but from the office that was exactly next to where I did the ride. You can see the ticket office at minute 2:45 of the video. I hope that I were able to answer your question, and I wish you a pleasant trip.
Hi, I went to Rovaniemi in the last week of November, and the daylight was around 4.5 hours. I think that if you go in the summer months, you will have plenty of daylight, but you will miss the snow and all the activities that are associated with it, and if you go in December, then the daylight is barely 2-3 hours, with December 21 is the shortest day of the year, and that day is 2:15 hours of daylight only. My advice is either the first two weeks of November, or February till the end of March, where you still have plenty of snow, but you can still enjoy some daylight too. With Feb being much colder than March, just to keep in mind. There is no word that can describe the beauty of Santa Claus Village in the winter, especially early evening. I have enclosed the sunrise-sunset schedule for Rovaniemi, and you can check the month that you are thinking to visit, so that you can plan your trip accordingly. I hope that this was helpful to you, and thanks for stopping by. If you have any other questions, please just let me know. Andy. www.timeanddate.com/sun/finland/rovaniemi
Hi, The price depends on how long is the ride, activities included with your snowmobile ride like: Fishing in the lake, chasing the aurora borealis, and so on, and whether you want the snowmobile for yourself, or you want to share it with another person. You can rent a snowmobile for as little as 30 minutes to almost half a day with activities. Expect to pay from below 100.00 euros to 250.00 euros on an average per person.
Hi Jessa, the price is per person, even if you go as a couple, you still can sit in the same sled, but each person has to pay €45.00. Regardless of the price, I thought that it was the best money I have ever spent, and have no doubt to my mind that I will do it again, once I visit this place for the second time.
Hi Liudmyla, I bought the husky ride ticket from: Arctic Circle Tourist Information's office in the main building in the village, as you can see in minute 0:34 of the video, but the actual company that operates the husky rides is called: Santa's Husky Rides. They are in the village too. Their Telephone is: +358-407600020 booking@bearhillhusky.com www.bearhillhusky.com My only suggestion is not to book a ride, unless you check the weather just a day or two in advance before you buy a ticket. Hope that was helpful.
On my bucket list a true dreamy Christmas ⛄
Among all the wild things that I've done in my life, riding a husky sled in the Arctic Circle, has to be one of the most memorable ones.
I will be there on november this year, thank you for the information!

@@cuabroadnowok thank you for the info 🙏
For the Husky Sled €45 per person or each sled?
