Rovaniemi: 2-Day Kirkenes Road Trip with SnowHotel Visit｜Norway

Day 1: Rovaniemi to Kirkenes

Kick off your journey by heading north, leaving the "Official Hometown of Santa Claus" behind. As you drive, watch the dense pine forests begin to thin into the vast, open landscapes of Northern Lapland.

Stop for a traditional Lappish lunch of creamy salmon soup or reindeer at the Gold Village. Next, reach Inari, the spiritual heart of the indigenous Sámi people. Visit the shores of Lake Inari—the "Sea of the Sámi"—and learn about the ancient traditions that still thrive in this sub-arctic wilderness.

In the evening, settle into your accommodation in Kirkenes. If the skies are clear, step outside for your first chance to witness the Aurora Borealis dancing over the frozen sea.

Day 2: Kirkenes

Wake up in Kirkenes and visit the world-famous SnowHotel.
Food and Drinks are not included. We believe in local flavors. Instead of set tour meals, we stop at authentic Lappish markets and lakeside cafes, giving you the freedom to choose exactly what you want to eat and support local businesses along the way.
Guests are responsible for carrying a valid Passport and any necessary Visas for crossing from Finland into Norway (Schengen Area).
Punctuality: To ensure all sights are seen, the vehicle will depart at the scheduled times. Late arrivals may result in a forfeited booking without refund.
