Wonderful trip…really interesting. The reindeer are beautiful. The Sami people were really friendly. We were a bit worried it might feel exploitative but it turned into the highlight of our time in Tromso. The reindeer are free to roam and very well looked after, they all had their own personalities. And the Sami people were genuine, full of stories, and even the jokes were funny. It was a great trip, highly recommended
This was one of our holiday highlights. The small group made it feel relaxed and calm. The reindeer were so curious and very cute. We enjoyed interacting with them on their own terms. Mikka gave a really fascinating insight into Sami culture and history, something we knew very little about prior to our trip. The warm fire, drinks and snacks were very enjoyable too. Thank you for wonderful family memories.
Thank you so much for your wonderful words and for visiting us - we are very happy we could be part of your special memories. Take care and we hope to see you again one day :)
Feeding the reindeer was a wonderful experience. They were very excited but very gentle. It is out in the open so if the wind is blowing make sure to wrap up with lots of warm layers
We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the experience, and thank as well for the great tip - it is helpful for future visitors. We hope to see you again! :)
Felt like Christmas! As soon as we got there, the host (Sami) allowed us a good amount of time to feed the reindeer - which truly set the experience off with an amazing start! We then had snacks and hot drinks in their Lavoo whilst being enthralled by hearing stories and songs of the Sami culture! Truly unforgettable
We are very happy you enjoyed feeding the reindeer and spending time in the lavvu! We hope to see you again! :)
Fabulous experience. Best tour I did in Tromso. Beautiful, welcoming Sami couple and gorgeous reindeer.
Eva and her husband were amazing hosts! If they weren't bound by time constraints, they would have kept our group occupied for hours longer. We really appreciated the small, intimate setting. With no more than a dozen guests, everyone got the chance to speak to wife and husband privately. Huge learning experience. 11/10. 🙌🤓📚
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure meeting you, and we are grateful you took the time to share this feedback. Hope our paths cross again someday! :)
Absolutely amazing! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a genuine meaningful and well organised reindeer experience.
Thank you so much for your kind words! It means a lot to us. Enjoy travels, and we hope to welcome you back again soon :)
A great experience to be so close to the reindeer and to hear about the Sami and their traditions, their past and the time now. Lots of information about the reindeer and their habitat. A really great experience and great Sami guides.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We are happy that you enjoyed the experience, and we hope you enjoy the rest of your travels and would be happy to welcome you again! :)
It was a most interesting experience. Being up close with many reindeer, feeding them, patting them if they allowed you. The most interesting part was listening about the Sami history & culture from two Sami people. They were very welcoming & friendly and provided heaps of bread to feed the reindeer.
Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot for us. We wish you a wonderful journey ahead! :)
A very nice outing, the reindeer are so cute and docile. This is an opportunity to learn more about the Sami culture and the two herdsmen are really nice and you feel that they love their passion and know how to communicate it. The time in the Sami cabin around the fire with hot drinks and snacking are really welcome.
We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the time with reindeer and learning more about our culture. Your kind words mean a lot to us. We hope to welcome you again one day - take care and all the best :)
