Winter & Summer Guide for Santa Claus Village in Rovaniemi

Rovaniemi is one of the most magical places in the world. Main reason for this, Rovaniemi is the official home of Santa Claus. When you visit this place in Winter, with lots of snow and freezing temperatures, it actually feels like you’re visiting the North Pole.

We consider ourselves very, very lucky, because we got to visit Santa Claus in Rovaniemi twice already. After visiting Santa Claus Village two times now, one time in summer and one time in winter, it became one of my favorite places ever visited. And definitely the most magical place.

Review of Arctic Road Trips | Real Aurora Hunting in Rovaniemi

One of the great things of travelling is that you get to meet like-minded people who often share the same stories and interests as you. It was in July 2022 that we were in Rovaniemi  and Ylläs when we met Lorenzo, owner of Arctic Road Trips. Truly an enthusiastic and energetic guy, who went up the mountains every night to capture the midnight sun. And even though it was in the middle of Summer and we had crazy hot temperatures for Lapland standards, he just couldn’t stop talking about his biggest passion, Northern Lights.

 traveltomtom about

Nice to meet you! I am Tom an avid adventure traveler from The Netherlands on the road for almost 11 years now, living a full time nomadic life in close to 160 countries around the world. Back in 2008 I did my first trip around the world and ever since I got the travel bug. Since 2012 I am continuously traveling the world, now already more than 4,000 days. Yes, that is 11 years of constantly exploring, not living abroad, but the real deal: constantly traveling!

My passion to inspire and help other travelers to travel the world turned into a lifestyle. When I started this travel blog I never though it would give me the freedom to travel the world, whenever and wherever. So what started as a passion ended up in a dream coming true...

I am also super grateful to have an amazing Traveltomtom community supporting me on social media. The Traveltomtom channels reach far over 1 million followers on TikTok (970K) and Instagram (535K).

After visiting 100 countries by the end of 2019 I felt inspired to visit every country in the world. However, along the way I found out it is not my thing to turn traveling into a challenge. I travel because it is my passion, I travel to learn, to become a better person and to feel alive and live in the moment. For me life is about chasing happiness, not goals!

Traveltomtom has successfully hosted group trip in the past and they will be back in 2024! Interested to join me on one of my trips? Check out my Traveltomtom Group Trip page for one of the exciting upcoming group trips.

Traveling makes me a better person with ever day I am on the road. And to all adventurers: don’t waste time, live now!
