Lapland is the region located in the far northwest of Russia along the northern parts of Norway, Sweden, and Finland. It is surrounded by the Norwegian Sea in the west and the White Sea in the east. Sweden's highest peaks are in Lapland. The indigenous people of Lapland, the Laps, have been living scattered across Lapland for two thousand years. Lapland is a place where the experiences you will live here are impossible to live anywhere else. At night, you will feel the stars in the palm of your hand, and if you are lucky, you will have the chance to see the magnificent Northern Lights. The period for seeing the Northern Lights is the equinox time. That means the probability of seeing them is very high between October and April. Lapland is most famous for its Reindeer. There are more reindeer than people in the region. The indigenous people living here sustain their livelihood thanks to Reindeer. There are numerous Reindeer farms in the region. PLUSES OF OUR TOUR We will stay one night in the city of Helsinki and have the opportunity to see important historical buildings and squares in the city. By staying 1 night in an Igloo in Rovaniemi, we will experience the culture of the region firsthand. You can sleep in your glass-topped Igloo by watching the stars and, if you are lucky, the Northern Lights. We will visit the legendary Santa Claus Village and spend very enjoyable times here. We will visit the Reindeer Farm, feed the deer here, and go on a sleigh ride. We will visit the farm of Husky Dogs, the symbol of the north, and go on a sleigh ride with these cute animals.
