Finland - Where Santa Claus Lives

We have a new Blog about Scandinavia and our insider's view with our custom travel and tours. Please continue to follow our blog posting on our new blog Insider's Scandinavia - Great Places to Go and Things to do!


Along with the holiday season comes the incessant queries of children eager to know just exactly where Santa comes from. With the help of the Nordic Company, you don’t have to just tell them – you can show them. Take your child on an unforgettable journey to the northern city of Rovaniemi, Finland to the magical Santa Claus Village. Just within the Arctic Circle that crosses through Northern Finland, Santa Claus Village is everything you imagined as a child and more. You can wander the toy shop, peek into Santa’s office, and even pet his reindeer at the nearby reindeer park.

Santa Claus village is only 8 kilometers from the Rovaniemi airport and makes a spectacular finish to your Finnish holiday. Christmas in Scandinavia is rich with traditional foods, decorative displays, and vivacious holiday cheer. Spend a few days in charming Helsinki, check out the coastal cities of Turku and Porvoo by train, and then make your way up to the snow-glittered, enchanting Lapland of the north. The Nordic Company is waiting for your call – because we know Santa Claus is waiting for your visit.
