Best value for money and very fun, even for adults! We could get up close, pet and feed the reindeers and meet other kind and calm domestic animals such as alpacas, bunnies and goats. Later, we got to do a small session of cross-country skiing and sledding. The staffs were so kind and friendly too. Highly recommend a short visit if you’re visiting Santa Claus Village!
