Hello Ezhachok!
The most important Santa sits in Santa's Park, in Rovaniemi.
but, there is always a queue for him and a photo with him costs 25 euros. I would not advise there. there is a wonderful excursion to the dacha to see Santa Claus. I think all operators offer this. this is a paradise for a child: they sing songs there, and bake cookies, and play. And most importantly, there are always not many children, and Santa has enough time for everyone, there is also enough time for adults. :) there take pictures as much as you want. and the very place where the dacha is located ... well, this is a fairy tale, and nothing more. when it is better to go - of course, by the New Year. Personally, I was in the city of Kuusamo, the Sokos hotel Kuusamo 4 *. but I would recommend Holiday Club Kuusamo Tropiki 4*. we were in it, there are good pools and slides for children. Our family is also not skiers, but the Finns offer many other excursions. we did not get bored. if anything, write.

Dear didi29!
I would like to clarify a couple of points with you. We have yet to decide on a budget for the trip.
What, approximately, is the amount you can focus on for a weekly tour with a flight for a family of 3 people (children 5 years old) when staying at the Holiday Club Kuusamo Tropiki 4 * recommended by you?
Will the child understand the excursion to Santa? Are there tours in Russian too?
When do you need to start booking a hotel for the New Year so that it is not too late?

Hello Ezhachok!
the New Year before last, for 1 adult in a double room, we paid about 900 euros (breakfast / dinner) with a flight. All excursions are very solid and high quality, so they cost a lot. I don’t remember exactly how much, but Santa is about 30 euros per person, the child will be less, of course. excursions are all with Russian translation, and the Santa that I got to (there are a lot of them in Finland;)) spoke Russian. with an accent, but it was quite clear to everyone. Is the excursion to Santa understandable for a child of 5 years old? Yes, sure! they all look at him with bated breath. I can send you photos from this tour. give me your email. see what the kids were doing there and what age.
about booking. ideally, you should start booking from the beginning of November. we personally booked a late tour due to which there were no plane tickets to the airport which was 5 minutes away. we had to fly to another airport and drive to the hotel for about 6 hours. of course, tiring, but twice saw flocks of deer - a fairy tale. :)
from Kuusamo to Rovaniemi about 4 hours or something. To be honest, I don't remember exactly. we rented a car.

By the way, here is a good site in English. about this resort.

and what is the fundamental difference between kuusuamo and rovaniemi? Maybe we should consider staying in Rovaniemi, closer to Santa?

Now there are many tour operators and more or less cheap companies and firms that deliver people to Finland at affordable prices.
