Every experience here is private to your group, arranged with a local operator and timed around the rest of your stay. Your chauffeur drives you there and waits, and one contact at Mr Charles handles the rest.
Each experience runs in its own season. Plan your visit around what you most want to see.
Choose a month to see what is in season.
Tours run on dark, clear nights. The aurora can show from late August to early April, and the long nights from November to February give the most hours to watch.
Both run on snow from November to March. Days are shortest in December, with under three hours of daylight in Rovaniemi.
Christmas and New Year book earliest, so send those dates as soon as you have them. Santa Claus Village in Rovaniemi is open all year.
Every winter experience runs. These are the coldest months, averaging −10.3 °C, with colder spells below −20 °C, and the days grow from about four hours to eight.
Both run from December into April. March and April bring long, bright days, about 12 hours of daylight in March and over 15 in April, with snow still on the ground.
The midnight sun from early June to early July and the autumn colours in September. Sauna and wellness run all year.
Daylight and temperatures are monthly averages for Rovaniemi.
