Full description
Start your day with the Snowmobile Safari and Santa Claus Village Visit, a 5-hour excursion offering the perfect combination of Arctic thrill and festive charm, ideal for the whole family. The adventure begins with a brief introduction to safety and driving instructions. Once geared up, you will embark on an unforgettable safari lasting approximately one hour through the magical forests of the Arctic Circle, gliding along snowy trails while admiring the stunning winter landscapes.
After the snowmobile adrenaline, the tour heads to the enchanting Santa Claus Village. There, your guide will offer an introductory tour of the area, pointing out key spots so you can make the most of your visit. You will then enjoy two hours of free time to explore at your own pace: meet Santa Claus in person, send a postcard with the official stamp from the Post Office, shop for unique souvenirs, or relax with a warm drink by the fire. At the end of the free time, you will reunite with your guide for the comfortable return transfer. Please note that the tour requires a minimum of 2 participants to proceed.
