Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- Tyler BTring, UK306 contributionsWe were staying in the Santa Claus Village but ventured into Rovaniemi to pick up our rented winter gear so decided to spend the morning in the city centre. The winter garden area outside the museum itself is well worth a visit with views over a frozen lake. The museum itself is good, if a little pricey.Written 21 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- IgnatiusSingapore, Singapore139 contributionsIt's the official residence of santa claus and it's a village to explore on its own, there are other smaller attractions within like an ice world and stuff but i think it's generally for the young ones and also these smaller attractions within requires an entrance fee.
I did try the reindeer ride which is well worth for the experience and just to feel what its like on a sleigh with the reindeers.
The must visit would be the post office whereby you would get to see the letters across the world that were mailed here to santa claus. I would also recommend sending one to yourself from here for the upcoming Christmas just so to remind yourself you have actually been to this almost magical place on earth in the arctic circle.
Somewhere in the middle of the village is also where you can pay santa claus a visit and have an official photograph taken with him, and yes it cost 50 euros to have it printed in a laminated photo with an official santa claus cover.
All in all I enjoyed my visit here and lastly it's easy to get here from the city centre, simply hop on the bus that says its going to santa claus village and in doubt just simply ask your hotel receptionist.Written 18 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

People there are very nice and the elves when you meet Santa Claus are very funny!Written 7 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Our coach, Tilda was absolutely amazing and is a wonderful teacher - I cannot wait to see her again one day! I loved the relaxed atmosphere of the resort (compared to other Alpine, etc. resorts where it is all a bit too much of everything) - everyone was very welcoming and friendly! Susanna - our final day coach was also great and was amazing at guiding me at the next level slope! I honestly cannot wait to go back! Thank you for such an amazing time!Written 14 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

Our guide was Alex Gamez, Alex was very nice and drove safely all the way. We had time to take pictures and even managed to catch a fish (we released him back to the lake).
Alex was very nice and patient, we enjoyed the tour very much.Written 14 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

He really gave us value for money! In the beginning a littlebit ‘shy’ but after seeing we were enthusiastic and were not really the slow types je opened up and showed us a great time. Great job Rasmus! And to Artic Lifestyle: ‘ hang on to this guy!’Written 26 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Nina3 contributionsIt was just as we had imagined. There were Christmas decorations everywhere and the staff were dressed as elves.
Anaïs was great. She showed us everything, we could ask many questions and everything was answered.
Highly recommended.
In May are no tourist so we had more or less the whole village to ourselves. Santa Claus took his time and we are allowed to talk to him.
Unfortunately, the reindeer were not there. They were released into the wild.Written 21 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Our guide Robin was WONDERFUL! Robin is a local native, had sharp eyes for Aurora, and knew his way around. He took us to his "spot", and we saw the most amazing Aurora! What an experience! Robin was fun and polite, great with our kids too! I couldn't have asked for a better experience!
The photos were taken with just my phone, we looking forward to the photos Robin took of us and the Aurora.Written 21 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We will remember this night forever and would highly recommend Beyond Aritic to anyone.Written 19 April 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Roger2 contributionsHad a private tour with Alexis, very nice guy, very nice tour. Just an awesome experience! Did see the Northern Lights although it was too cloudy. The ride on the snowmobile was very nice and out tour guide gave us good instructions to drive safe. So if you are looking for a night tour in search for the Northern Lights, i recommend to go here and ask for Alexis!Written 16 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
