Day 1 – Arrival & Reindeer aurora hunt

Arrival at Rovaniemi and transfer to your hotel. In the evening, visit a reindeer farm and learn about the life there. Climb aboard a sleigh and enjoy your ride through the snowy landscapes of the Finnish Lapland. Look out for those elusive dancing lights – they might just decide to accompany you on this ride.
