You'll get to feed, pet, and take photos of these wonderful animals, a wonderful experience for both children and adults. Then, it's time to warm up in a kota with an open fire, and share a delicious traditional Finnish glögi and a freshly baked pastry. To finish this amazing experience, you will head to the Christmas tree farm, where you'll get to learn about the trees are grown are cared for, as well as decorate a tree and, if it's before Christmas Eve, you'll even get to cut a tree down.
