Renspann och utfodring med samisk kultur i Tromsö
Beskrivning
Du får möjlighet att lära känna den samiska kulturen och följa med på en trevlig renspannstur i vacker nord Norska natur. Samerna är ursprungsbefolkningen i Norden, och vår samiska Guide vill att du ska lära känna hans kultur bättre, både dåtid, nutid och framtid, genom att smaka på typisk samisk mat, se samiska artefakter och höra berättelser och traditionell samisk sång. * Om förhållandena ändras förbehåller vi oss rätten att ändra längden på slädturen. * Alla djur som används för dessa tjänster är utbildade för aktiviteten, men djurens beteende kan vara oförutsägbart och därför är det viktigt att alla deltagare följer alla givna instruktioner för sin säkerhet, och andras säkerhet. *Varje ren och släde binds ihop i en lång rad med ledarrenen längst fram. * Slädar delas, 2 deltagare på en släde. * Renspann är föremål för snö och om väderförhållandena inte tillåter oss att köra slädturen kommer vi att erbjuda dig en del återbetalning.

Booked through Get Your Guide (Feb 2026), which was probably a mistake (should have booked direct for, I imagine, better service). A few days before the trip, I was notified that some of the reindeer were sick and I was not going to be able to do the reindeer sledding portion. Disappointing, yes, but it's what's best for the deer. They gave a partial refund. When we got on the bus, I was surprised they were handing out wristbands for people who were doing the sledding portion. Between the 2 buses, there were still 2 groups of people selected to do the sledding. It seemed like since I booked 3rd party, I was cut from what I was hoping to be the highlight of the tour. On arrival, we met in the lavvu where the guide talked, split up the groups, and we went on our way to the paddock to feed. We each got a bucket with pellets, fed the cute deer, took pics - they were pretty relaxed. These reindeer were smaller than expected (compared to the Cairngorm reindeer in Scotland). To top it off, there was a large group of obnoxious international students throwing snowballs (picking up snow both in and out of where the deer were penned, probably laced with urine and feces). We went to use the restrooms, which were in wooden structures, and not kept clean. There was urine all over the floor and toilet seats - I took one look and decided to hold it until Tromso. Then I had difficulty unlocking the door and was temporarily stuck inside. We had lunch in the lavvu, which consisted of reindeer or vegetable soup, bread, butter, and powdered hot chocolate - it was ok. The guides talked about the Sami culture, passed around some artifacts, and answered questions. The tour guides were nice and the demonstration interesting, but the day had been soured by everything else. My husband still had a good time for his first reindeer experience.
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience didn't meet your expectations, especially since the reindeer sledding was something you were most looking forward to. The decision to reduce sledding was made to prioritize the health and welfare of our reindeer, and while we understand how disappointing this was, their wellbeing must always come first. We're also sorry that seeing some sledding still taking place caused confusion and disappointment. Because only a limited number of healthy reindeer were able to participate, we had to significantly reduce the number of sledding spots available. To manage this fairly, the most recent bookings were the ones affected by the cancellation, regardless of whether they were made directly with us or through a third-party booking platform. We understand how frustrating this must have been, especially when reindeer sledding was the highlight you were looking forward to. We're also disappointed to hear about the condition of the restrooms and the behavior of other visitors. Neither reflects the experience we aim to provide. Your comments have been shared with our team so we can reinforce our cleaning routines and monitor guest behavior more closely where possible. We're pleased that you enjoyed meeting and feeding the reindeer, found our guides welcoming, and appreciated learning about Sami culture. It also means a lot to hear that your husband still had a positive first reindeer experience. Thank you again for your honest feedback. Reviews like yours help us identify where we need to improve, and we hope you'll consider visiting us again in the future under better circumstances.
The reindeer were lovely. How gentle these animals are! Of course, as we had food for them, there was a lot of interest :) After a break with hot food and tea/coffee, we could learn more about the life of and with reindeer, but also about the culture of Sámi people. All in all, a very good experience. PS. Due to weather conditions, the sledding part of the experience was cancelled and reimbursed. I was given the opportunity to cancel the whole tour but I decided to join it anyway, as I was mostly interested in interacting with the reindeer and learning more about the Sámi culture. I am very glad I did!
What a wonderful review! We are absolutely thrilled you enjoyed spending time with our reindeer herd. They truly are the stars of the show! It sounds like feeding them by hand was a highlight. We take great care of our animals, and it’s wonderful to see the joy they bring our visitors. Thank you again for visiting Tromsø Lapland.
Friendly Sami people share stories about the reindeer during a delicious hot lunch after spending time with reindeer, feeding them and taking photos

Beautiful ride with reindeer sleigh ride in the night and then great warm bidos in a tent in Sami village. Our host told us about Sami culture enriching the story with anecdotes of himself and his family! Really interesting!!!!

The sleigh ride was cancelled a week before due to sick/retired animals. But the partial refund arrived well and quickly. The rest was very nice. We were able to pet some reindeer popos and had a lot of time to feed. That was the most important thing to us. The Sami info was exciting and the food quite okay. You have to know that with 2 coaches full of people you arrive and leave there 50-60 min.

It was exactly what we expected! The bus driver to the reindeer guide to the Sami presenter were all terrific.

Transport, organization, Sami people, cultural talk, reindeer feeding, camp were all excellent and worth the tour. The vegetarian/vegan meal of light vegetable soup not equal to the thick, deer meat, potato, carrot stew. Need a veg stew just minus the meet.a

Great guide with plenty of information and knowledge. Enjoyed the hike and country side. Good physical activity. Small 2 party group as most went to other activities.
Dear guest Thank you for your review but this must be for another activity provider. We offer Reindeer and Sami Culture experiences. Unfortunately, we don't take our guests for a hike.
