Everything you need to know before traveling on the Santa Claus overnight train to Lapland!

Here are a few tips if you are planning a trip to Finland with the VR Santa Claus express night train to Lapland. I stayed in the “first class” room on the second floor, and it included a bathroom!

The whole journey took about 11 hours from Tikkurila (close to Helsinki) to Rovaniemi.
Other than my panic when I entered the train, and forgot which coach I was in (and didn’t find the couch number on the wall), it was a pleasant ride.
