A Trip to see Santa Claus
Filed in archive Destination: Europe by Melissa Petri on December 12, 2006

So why not head over to Finnish Lapland and meet Santa this winter?
One particular destination would be Napapiiri (near Rovaniemi) where Santa has established the Santa Claus Office. It's where he has been meeting children and the young at heart (that would be YOU) since 1950.
You can also head over to Rovaniemi where the Santa Claus Village is; and where Santa's main Post Office is located.
Apart from Santa sightings, you can also take advantage of the events (Christmas Market, Christmas Workshop, Ski Jumping and a Concert) happening in Rovaniemi.
Where to Stay? Where else but at the Clarion Hotel Santa Claus!
How to Get There: You have to get to Helsinki
(HEL) first and then, fly to Rovaniemi (RVN). Rovaniemi Airport is the gateway to the Finnish Lapland. You can fly from London Stansted (STN) to Helsinki with AirBerlin; and then from HEL to RVN by Blue1.
Go and get ready to meet Santa Claus!
