It’s still possible in Finnish Lapland, and more specifically in Rovaniemi<\/strong>, do fun activities with your kids. Some of them will be free or won’t cost you much, but some of them will have to be paid for, so you won’t have much choice. Below is a small selection of possible activities. I’ve linked you to activities with companies I recommend or with which I work in affiliation. Clicking on these links doesn’t change anything for you at the time of booking or on the total amount, but it does allow me to receive a small commission for all the work I do, for all the advice I give you and which is useful on a daily basis for the organization of your trip to Lapland. These companies have already been tested over the seasons, are professional, safe and offer small-group activities only<\/strong>. If you’ve organized your own trip to Rovaniemi and would like to book just the activities, simply click on the links below<\/strong> then follow the procedure. For all those who prefer to use my services to offer you a program adapted to the child’s rhythm, far from mass tourism and in a beautiful environment, please contact me by email at contact@mademoiselle-voyage.fr<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n Rovaniemi is a city brimming with accommodation ranging from apartments to hotels, beads & breakfasts and igloos. Of course, there’s something for every budget, which is why I advise you to plan ahead and to find what you’re looking for here<\/span><\/strong><\/a> .<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n I recommend the following establishments for their proximity and the experiences they offer:<\/p>\n\n Hotels\/Apartments\/Bed & Breakfasts<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Sleep in Igloos<\/strong><\/p>\n\n ACTIVITIES IN ROVANIEMI<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n ____________________________________<\/p>\n\n And yes, Santa’s House is free – there’s no admission charge. The paid organized outings you find often combine several activities during the day, lunch and Santa’s House. Once through the door, it’s all about consumption. The Santa Claus Village complex<\/strong> is a huge park that could be compared to Disney (albeit smaller). By this I mean restaurants, souvenir stores and accommodation. But what can you really discover inside this Santa Claus village?<\/p>\n\n FREE<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n ➡️ For the first time in Lapland, many parents and families want to immortalize their encounter with Santa Claus, spend time with him and waste no time. Santa’s house being highly sought-after<\/strong> by travelers from all over the world, I still recommend booking this Rovaniemi landmark. You can meet his reindeer, get a certificate for crossing the Arctic Circle, visit Santa’s village and meet him, and enjoy a delicious traditional Christmas buffet for lunch.
