Today I'm taking a first class sleeper train to the Arctic Circle! Come with me aboard the Lapland express, for a snowy long distance train journey :)
We are going all the way to Rovaniemi, in Finnish Lapland in one of the most comfortable and beautiful train rides I've ever experienced.
I've been on a lot of trains in my life, like the Amtrak trains (California Zephyr and Coast Startlight), Rovos Rail (the most expensive train ride in the world), and the Caledonian Sleeper. But with this train, we are literally going to the top of the world (close to the North Pole)! This was such a special and unique train journey and I really recommend it!
Also, I'm having a bit of a girl's trip here since I'm bringing my friend Camille along. Btw, it's her first time in a KZfaq video so if you read this, go subscribe to her channel and tell her to post her first video ASAP: / @camillegrassi
More info about my luxury train journey:
- Train from Helsinki to Rovaniemi (in the Arctic Circle) on VR (Finland's national rail service)
- First class train cabin is the upstairs cabin with private shower
In this trip report, you'll find:
- A full train tour of the two floors including: dining car, bar car, seating compartments (with reclining seats), storage space...
- A room tour of our first class cabin
- Food tour of our breakfast
- The incredible views over the arctic circle including beautiful snowy train tracks, icy rivers and our arrival into the arctic.
Also, all my luggage is Solgaard, I absolutely love this brand and they are now a partner of the channel!

As a Finn, I confess only the price is most often that of the first class. Yet there are no complimentary amenities, the cabins are small, the bed linen coarse, the food is non-complimentary, expensive, and modest. You get a nice free bottle of water, that`s it. There are special offers, if you buy many months in advance, otherwise: this is no hotel, even though the price gets ridiculous. Years ago, special breakfasts, worthy of presenting to tourists, were available, served to your proper restaurant table, in porcelain tableware. For these, I`m embarrassed and sorry. You got microwaved porridge, in a paper cup, with an inferior rye sandwich, and thin coffee.

My wife and I traveled to Finland last November just so we could take the Santa Claus Express. Your video captured the beauty and fun of taking the overnight train to Rovaniemi. We spent 4 nights in a cabin just north of the Arctic Circle before taking one night at Santa Claus Village. It was a memorable visit, even though we locked ourselves out of the cabin at midnight after taking a sauna! The train was awesome and we want to come back and do it again. Thanks for the video Lucile!

Just found your channel! Maybe it was because your travel came so close to us, we live in a little village in north of Sweden, Vittangi, about 270 km northwest from Rovaniemi. I actually went with my velomobile (check films on my channel) to Rovaniemi in the beginning of September 2022. Hope you had some nice time in Rovaniemi, it is a nice city. Hope you also were lucky and saw the northern lights! Some people have already made some comments that you should come in the summertime to experience the midnight sun. The midnight sun you will see when traveling north of the Arctic Circle. In Rovaniemi the Arctic Circle goes north of the center of the town. Even in Rovaniemi you can experience the midnight sun, but continuing the travel to the north the time of when you can experience the midnight sun will be longer. Here in Vittangi we can see it about one month around midsummer. A very common discussion starts about Santa Claus or as he is called in Finland, Joulupukki. Rovaniemi has made Santa Claus as his homeplace, but all children in Finland knows Joulupukki lives in Korvatunturi :-), a real mountain in Finnish Lapland. I could recommend the book "Joulupukki" by Mauri Kunnas with beautiful illustrations, you can find it also in English language with the title "Santa Claus". Welcome back to the north and maybe you have already travelled the beautiful railroad from Boden (Sweden) to Narvik (Norway)? The trains are not so comfortable as they are with VR in Finland, but the sceneries are beautiful.

Finish train are so much nicer than Swedish night trains! But the Swedish one are pretty cool too, you can go from Malmö to Kiruna, a trip of about 18 hours. The bed coupes are six beds, three on top of each other. I of course took the top one. :) the trains are 60 years old built in the good old days so vintage guaranteed. (They’ve added power outlets). You can check in your big bags in a storage wagon in front of the train so every stop is 15 minutes. Not many stops during the trip. :)

Next time you're here in the Nordic Countries take the sleeper train from Stockholm/Sweden to Narvik/Norway in the summer, you may have a chance to the midnight sun - I've seen it a couple of time, living in Sweden but not that fare north. This gonna make you a little sad but Rovaniemi is situated a little south of the Artic Circle. Once I've been up north when it was -40C, don't feel it was that cold since it was "dry cold", it was at Ylitorneo, a little south of the Artic Circle about 80-100km.

The only gripe I have with Finnish trains is that they're not exactly high speed. In a big country like Finland with a small population, it takes a while to get where you need to be. They're still the fastest way to travel within Finland for most trips, though. But the trains are very on time, very clean, very comfortable and not particularly expensive. I love taking them when I'm not in a hurry.

The Finnish sleeper cabins are all same class (=classless). The only difference is, that the upstair cabins have en-suite showers/toilets, while the downstairs cabins have shared toilets and showers at the end of train cars. The upstair cabins might also be marginally larger, although personally I have never noticed any difference.

@@LucileHR it is Solvang California. We’re a small town over 110 years old. It was founded by a few danish family’s and there are a few of those family’s still around today. We have the title “danish capital of America” and all our business and buildings have the same architecture as you would expect from the title. December is Julefest and that’s when things get goin the entire town all the trees along the streets from tip to tip are lite up all night long. Research Solvang julefest or Solvang California and you won’t be disappointed.
