Good tickets & entry passes fill up weeks out and the best ones go first. Below: the 15 to book early, what each includes, and how they actually differ.
Snowman World entry in Santa Claus Village, Rovaniemi. Ice skating, tubing slides, ice bar, and Arctic dining in one day.
“We loved it skating and tubing , we left for lunch and come back for more skating after a drink at the ice bar. Perfect day with our 10 year old .”
Catch RoKi’s Mestis ice hockey night at Lappi Arena in Rovaniemi. Easy ticket pickup, family-friendly arena, fast action for all ages.
“The atmosphere was electric, the match was intense. Just brilliant”
Helsinki to Tallinn guided day trip with hotel pickup, round-trip ferry, and a 3-hour Old Town walk plus 3 hours free time.
“As a solo traveller I opt for guided tours when visiting a new city. I ran into a little difficulty at the ferry terminal in Helsinki because I presumed the ticket sent to me would allow me walk straight onto the ship. A little more guidance in advance would have helped. The driver in Helsinki was very friendly and helpful and the guide Yevgeni in Tallinn was a font of local knowledge. Overall it was an excellent day trip, but some more assistance and advice in advance might be beneficial.”
Arktikum in Rovaniemi brings Arctic science and Sámi culture together, with Northern Lights exhibits and an Arctic Seasons film.
“Loved learning about the Arctic and the native Suomi people. Was a magnificent way to wind away a few hours.”
Visit Temppeliaukio Church in Helsinki, carved into granite with copper and skylights, plus daytime concerts included for about $9.
“smukt bygning men ikke meget mere at se end hvad man kan se på billedet så lidt dårlig værdi for pengene.”
Walk Ranua Wildlife Park’s 3 km route in Lapland Finland, see the polar bear and other arctic animals, and enjoy a calm forest day.

See Helsinki from 40 meters up on the SkyWheel, with big-window gondolas, easy entry, and great sunset or night views for about 12 minutes.
“It was a nice thing to do but not a lot to see. We went at 4pm so was dark already but the lights are lovely and it gives one a different perspective. You go around 3 times.”
Ranua Wildlife Park day trip from Rovaniemi with hotel pickup, minibus transport, and a winter guided walk to meet Arctic animals.
“Ranua wildlife park is an amazing spot to visit when in Lapland! The drive was smooth and our driver was really sweet! Thank you!”

Spend one winter day at Kotatieva near Rovaniemi, skating a 500 m trail in the forest, plus sledding and sauna time.
“Beau site. Nous avons adoré patiner dans la forêt. La navette gratuite à partir de Rovaniemi est appréciable. La piste de luge n’est pas exceptionnel, tout comme le restaurant.”
Rovaniemi SnowGlow Winterpark entry gives you 2 days of Lapland lights and winter rides, from snow banana boats to slides and ice skating.
“Enjoyed the Octopus ride, watched others having fun (I am 83 years old), had a cuppa and threw hoops at various figures, AND WON a Polar Bear with my, suddenly donated at the end, "lucky extra hoop"!! Good fun. I think £28 each was too much - maybe £20 each would better match the actual experience?”
One list per kind of day, north and south.
