Meet our herd of hundreds of reindeer and feed them by hand. In around 3 hours, including transfers from Tromsø, you'll get a memorable introduction to Sámi reindeer-herding life. After a scenic 30–35 minute drive along the coast, we arrive at our reindeer camp, where the herd will be waiting for you. When you need to warm up, step inside our gamme for tea, coffee, hot chocolate and cookies around the fire. We finish the visit together in the lavvu, where your Sámi guide will share stories about our culture, traditions and life as a reindeer herder, before finishing with a traditional joik. This shorter experience does not include lunch, making it ideal for guests who want to meet the reindeer and experience Sámi culture while keeping more of the day free.
