A wonderful, truly fabulous place where it will be interesting for both adults and children. Here you can meet 12 months old, a Bagel moose, Santa Claus's assistant, many fairy-tale characters, visit a museum and a storage room, as well as make a wish on a magic bridge.
Of course, you can meet the wizard himself - Santa Claus, solve his riddles and even get a gift!

A wonderful place for both children and adults. You should always believe in a fairy tale! Santa Claus came out to us: he puzzled us, played games, took pictures with us. The Residence has a huge territory, many playgrounds and photo locations. Santa Claus's assistant took us around the territory, told us stories about fairy tale characters, played with us, showed us where you can make a wish. She took us to the souvenir house, where we were given gifts from Santa Claus. We also bought souvenirs there, jam from cones and jam from strawberries collected in Belovezhskaya Pushcha. Then we visited the Gift House. All the gifts that children give to Santa Claus are collected there. And then we had lunch at the terem cafe. Despite the small number of visitors, the menu offers several types of first courses, side dishes, hot dishes and drinks that are Sooo delicious! Everything is clean, even too clean, and neat. You can also buy souvenirs from the Residence of Santa Claus. Be sure to visit this magical place!!!
The Council:if you come with children, I advise you to go to Santa Claus first, and then on a tour of the Forest. Since if few people are recruited, then the bus does not take the group there.

We went on a tour from "Dorthur". There are no questions about the organization of the tour itself BEFORE visiting the Residence. Everything is clear, a good guide.
But the Residence ITSELF is a complete horror and utter disgrace, to put it correctly. There were two adults and a child of 7 years old. Disappointment is a mild description of the action taking place in this place. Who wrote the script, who set up the sound in the microphones, who organized all this? How can you charge at least some money for THIS?.. Conveyor belt is not the right word, it's a dump of people, a la artists and the likes of Santa Claus, who is tortured and wants nothing more than to be left alone! Dear fellow organizers of the Residence, why are you selling so many entrance tickets? Making money in the season is certainly a good reason! But not that much! Who is going to go there specifically to the Residence - read the negative reviews - they reflect everything! I don't want to rewrite what has already been written! The only right decision to go there is OUT of season and not for the purpose of pleasing the child with communication with Santa Claus, on the eve of the holiday!

We recently arrived from the estate of Santa Claus , the idea is not bad , several locations with entertainment for children , but....it's just a conveyor belt, you can stay at each location for 5 minutes, groups go one by one, you don't have time to get any pleasure, you had a round dance for 5 minutes with your grandfather, he immediately said that you can take one common photo, since there are a lot of people and the next group is coming, how is it at all??? We drove 250 km from Grodno, it wasn't worth it. For this money, you can take a cool walk in the center of Grodno and get great impressions. And so ...tickets are expensive , the road is long , the weather is disgusting , and there are 000000 impressions

In winter, I always drove the children, but now in September I went all the same beautifully and hospitably.
There are small inconveniences in the fact that there is a reconstruction, buildings are being added, cafes, shops, etc. In
general, if you want to have a good rest with your family
You need to go to Belovezhskaya Pushcha.
And most importantly, do not spare money and do not deny yourself and your children gifts!!!

I really didn't like it! We were here 6 years ago - that's when there was a soul in this place, but now it's all about commerce. It's necessary to bring 2 buses of people (about 80 people) and lead a tour along narrow trails, talking into a small microphone - the first 10 people hear, the remaining 70 just wander, or a crush begins to participate in interactive activities. It's very poorly organized. And communicating with Santa Claus for less than half a minute per group (family). It is simply made in the form of a stream, without focusing on the quality of services. It is clear that the situation now encourages such behavior, but when that changes, negative emotions will remain and people will remember this place as the worst to visit.

Very good.there were many fairy-tale characters, a busy route, more photo zones, gingerbread and Christmas trees from Santa Claus. an atmospheric place. There were 23 December- in addition there was a fire show, there were bonfires on the territory, there are cafes, free toilets (tolerable). I didn't choose a souvenir (there were a lot of magnets, key chains. But there are no notebooks, books, bracelets). And we waited a long time (about an hour) for the entrance to the residence - we were entertained by fairy-tale characters, but it was hard with children in the cold. It took me a while to realize that it was possible to go to the concert area - no one was holding up, and then join the band.
Travel only in groups.
Most likely, we will also go in the summer. Emotions are good.

The idea is good, but everything is incomplete. Starting from the bus. More tickets were sold than seats. The driver yells obscenities at the cashiers that they have sold more tickets, while not solving the problem of boarding. Some passengers were standing up. It's not far to go, you can also stand, but you would have been warned in advance then and would not have yelled at boarding, saying that you came in, let's all get out, we will check the tickets. It also turns out that when you buy a ticket, you buy an excursion. But they don't talk about it either on or off the bus. There are a lot of people, the guide is alone, talking into a microphone, but you still can't hear him. The guards at the entrance are also speaking softly. There was no food on the premises at all, and this is January 2nd. Everything is closed. It was impossible to feed the children in Santa Claus's Forest. There is a canteen, but the queue lasts for 30 minutes, and considering that we were told that the last bus departs at 18.10 and you have to have a nosebleed, then standing in line for 30 minutes is a luxury. Frost's business, by the way, was also hard to hear because there were a lot of people. I wouldn't go a second time. And considering that we came from Orenburg, which is almost 2000 km away, the impressions are so-so. And a 4-year-old child now remembers a trip to Santa Claus's place, how she saw Baba Yaga there and the driver cursed and checked the tickets and told her to get off the bus. I'll make a reservation right away that we bought tickets for this particular bus, but we didn't have enough seats. Fortunately, people went to meet them and put small children on their laps, thereby freeing up seats.
As a result. It's a good idea, even very good. And it seems that everything is there for implementation, decorations, surroundings, a fairy tale. But there's obviously a problem with the staff.

The place is great for tourists, interesting, constantly being reconstructed and new elements of the "fairy tale" are added in winter, of course, it is much more interesting and atmospheric than in summer, but it is also interesting to visit there during such periods of the year. Special thanks to the animators playing the role of Santa Claus - it is very difficult to guess the reaction of visitors, to be cheerful, witty and welcoming with everyone - but they do it very well!

Yes, don't really trust the navigator. It is necessary to enter the residence from the Kamenyuki side and put in the search not the residence, but the National Park Belovezhskaya Pushcha. Otherwise, the navigator will lead to the entrance "not for everyone", you will have to go around about 70 km more))

Shock within shock, that's if you fit it into one phrase. Firstly, according to the maps, it leads through a blocked road, and none of the notorious navigators indicate that the passage is open only to locals. Therefore, it is necessary to go to Kamenyuki, and then to Belovezhskaya Pushcha. As a result: a lap of 60km.
Belovezhskaya Pushcha itself, huge aviaries and a couple of animals) honestly, I imagined it differently.
An excursion to Santa Claus, we were taken by bus to the depths of the Forest, it started out kind of well. Then this performance began, with the digitization of Santa Claus) passed from animator to animator, of which I liked only the bee. Other amateurs. Contests are primitive, they don't involve children. But you can take a picture, and those who don't take pictures are standing and freezing. Everything was very quickly guided around the territory, there are also beautiful locations, but against the general background, everything in general is something. For three people, two adults and one child with a visit to the enclosures 160p. And it's good that there were business in Brest, if I had gone there on purpose, I would have demanded a refund. The child did not understand anything at all, and this program ended very quickly, they brought me to a souvenir shop, I must pay tribute, they gave me a souvenir and a gingerbread. Then go eat and walk) in general, here is an accurate illustration of what business looks like in Belarusian. I never write reviews, but there are so many enthusiastic ones that I couldn't resist, the money for RB is not small, but for whom it's critical, think 100 times, it's better to go to the circus.

If you are without children, there is nothing to do here. The program is designed for children (although the grandmothers were also delighted). A visit to this place was included in the tour. On the way, several people will meet with a memorized text, calling themselves assistants / daughters / granddaughters of Santa Claus. Each has a certain section assigned to them, after passing which they will pass the baton to the next presenter. The program runs in a circle, the microphones of the presenters echo, there is a group after a group. The presenters say the same text, do you know what madness is... For some reason, one of the members of your group should take a shared photo with Santa Claus. Although you can see magnets with photos on the way out, it means there is a photographer there. At the end of the program, a gingerbread gift is given. I haven't tasted it, but it looks like it... The thinnest layer of white glaze with crystals of undissolved sugar and confectionery sprinkles

Is it really difficult to set up routes in Google and Yandex - how to get there. As a result, there is a 60 km detour. Wasted time and nerves. There is no information about the departure of buses. For 45 rubles, they just give you a check. Is it really difficult for such money to print a normal ticket with a map, route, information? I doubt that anyone from the administration reads these reviews at all. Therefore, information for users is to drive through the village of Kamenyuki by car.

The result is that after standing in line for 1 hour at the ticket office (we arrived at lunch), they closed the ticket office in front of us and said that tickets to the residence had run out. That's all. And while my husband was standing in line for an hour, we tried to eat. The queues are huge, there is nowhere to sit, there are no places in the restaurant. They asked me to sell at least something to feed the baby. We ate outside

Good afternoon! On December 25, we arrived with my wife and 2-year-old child to Santa Claus. They were very positive. Before that, we visited the Forest sooo many times and were satisfied, but this time the disappointment was the price of 40p per adult and 30p per child. You buy tickets strictly on time. The animators are obviously frozen and in no mood. Well, in this weather, it's certainly not a joy to stand outside. Santa Claus and the snow maiden went out for 2 minutes, said hello, took a picture and that's it. And then go on a guided tour. It started to rain. And there is no alternative, there are no trailers or trains, well, at least something to listen to the tour in bad weather. Well, or at least invite you to tea, and continue the tour later. But in fact, it turns out that if you don't want to waste money, go, get wet, freeze and listen. If you don't want to, that's your problem. Yes, even for 20p for such an attitude -100 points out of 10 for you. And in fact, for 110 rubles we received 3 gingerbread, frozen and soaked. And they got wet not because they went to listen to the tour, it was decided to hide from the downpour faster with a small child. And everywhere everything is closed, there is nowhere to hide, to run 300-400 meters to the nearest open building. For so many years, you can think of all this a long time ago. And the prices are like this, what kind of rip-off is this? The prices on the site are the same, and it was on this day that they decided to charge more? And for what? Did you provide something for this? Prices of 100 rubles per kg of kebab? It's tinny. In general, the residence is not clear what. The horror!!! If we had gone to the aviaries, there would not have been so much negativity. But here it is child-oriented and nothing has been done for the child. The only place with normal prices and where everything is OK is the cafe at the entrance. In general, according to the review, I think it's clear that everything is very bad (
