Good experience
Very good experience at the farm of Rennes with Margaux thank you for his sweetness and kindness. We thought we had explanations in French especially since the guide of the farm of Rennes was French but everything was in English. The visit would have been nicer if he had spoken both languages especially since there were many French. The children did not understand anything. Thanks to Margaux of Nordic Odyssey for translating the essentials. The sled ride was short but we enjoyed it. There is a toboggan run for the children. We had a great time.

Great!
We have made several trips with Nordic Odyssey (sled dog walk, reindeer farm visit and Northern Lights hunting) and are delighted with their services. The guides are very friendly and know how to pass on their knowledge. They are passionate and experienced. It was a real pleasure to take these excursions with them. Special mention to Quentin who struggled to find the perfect place to observe the Northern Lights and took beautiful photos.

Also nice adaptation of the exit considering the conditions!

Magic, magic magic
A brilliant tour. Our guide Martin was so knowledgeable, a very safe driver and you could tell he really wanted us to see the beauty and history the Sami People and the Finnish way of life. On top of all that the farm was so interesting and the sleigh ride was magical. I think so much better than a taster at the Santa Claus village.

Super reliable agency! I recommend 100%
I would like to thank the 3 super guides: Tristan, Hervé and Pierre for the excursions we did with them. For a first time in Finland, they taught us a lot about the country, about reindeer, about nature. Their good humor and reliability really make the difference. If we return to Rovaniemi, we will call on them!!!

Must do, sled safari in Rennes
A unique and unmissable experience when you come to Lapland🤩.
Call on Nordic Odyssey if you don’t want to be disappointed and have a Francophone team.
Super nice walk of several km which is ultra soothing and thanks to Lau, ee the farm staff , you will become ungluable on reindeer and their environments 😉😉😉.

A few fun hours with the reindeer
The experience with the reindeer has been a lot of fun, the child (he is 4) has had a great time feeding him. Besides the farm boy was very friendly and the time of questions and talks afterwards has become very enjoyable.

Reindeer and Husky adventure in autumn
I booked the Reindeer & Husky Tour in Summer/Autumn for me and my husband and WOW we had an incredible time! We weren't sure what to expect with reindeer since they don't like to be petted, but we got to feed them! So cool. The husky cart ride (not a sled because snow had only just started to fall for the season) was so much fun - my husband loved driving the cart. My favorite part was the time we were given to pet and cuddle the dogs after the ride. Our guides all day were helpful and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!!
