After a short transfer by minibus, you’ll meet our friendly reindeer herd, a small group of 5-6 reindeer. Listen to captivating stories about the Sami way of life, their deep connection to nature, and their traditions passed down through generations. You’ll also have the opportunity to feed the animals, creating a personal connection with these iconic Arctic creatures.
Meanwhile, surrounded by only darkness, the stage is set for one of nature’s most breathtaking displays as this evening adventure offers a unique chance to witness the Northern Lights dancing across the sky, a truly magical experience.
