This adventure stands out because it offers something you won’t find in typical tourist activities: real authenticity. You’re not visiting a commercial attraction — you’re stepping into the everyday life of a small local family and their reindeer farm, where there are no crowds, no staged shows, and no rush.

You get exclusive access to a farm with hundreds of reindeer, yet only your small group is present. This creates a calm, personal, and intimate atmosphere where you can truly connect with the animals, ask questions, and learn deeply about the culture of Lapland.

What To Expect

If you’re looking for a genuine and authentic experience away from mass tourism, this is perfect for you! A member of our small family business will pick you up from your holiday accommodation, and from there we’ll drive to our reindeer farm and cabin on the shore of a wilderness lake, just 35 minutes from Levi. Once there, you’ll get to explore a real, authentic reindeer farm with hundreds of reindeer and no other visitors—just our small group of up to 8 people and the reindeer. You’ll be able to touch the reindeer, feed them lichen, and take a reindeer for a walk. You will learn all about the reindeer’s year and life in Lapland. After this, we’ll head next door to our cabin, where we’ll continue with a snowshoe walk across the frozen lake into the snowy forest. We’ll tell you all about life in Lapland during all eight seasons. Afterwards, we’ll relax in the cozy cabin and enjoy roasting sausages, along with pastries and a hot drink. You’ll be back at your accommodation four hours after pickup, filled with memories and carrying beautiful photos from your adventure. We’ll be your new local friends from that moment on. <3

I liked it very much to visit the reindeer farm, especially I did love the personal and authentic atmosphere of this excursion in a small group. Also the scenery on the drive through the winter forest was amazing. And the Mökki was very cosy to warm up.

beautiful discovery of a real reindeer farm with Helli, who turns out to be a friendly, funny and attentive guide. little snowshoe ride without much difficulty in autonomy and a little comfort in a typical little kota with everything you need to regain strength. a little surprise at the end. thank you for this pleasant moment

We could not possibly have had a more incredible time with Heli. She is one of the people in the world who has truly found what they are meant to be doing: serving as a capable educator, the consummate hostess, and a fantastic ambassador for Lapland and Finland. We were able to pepper her with questions and receive thoughtful answers to each one. We had a much more up-close, intimate, educational experience with her reindeer than we could have imagined. Our time spent snowshoeing in the wilderness was serene, beautiful, and spectacular. An overarching theme that we appreciated: Heli offered the perfect mix of hands-on engagement and hands-off “go do your thing” encouragement. We were free to interact with her reindeer as we saw fit, rather than lining up for staged photo ops. We were set free to snowshoe around her beautiful neck of the woods and explore to our hearts content, rather than trekking single file behind her. But at the same time, she opened her home so graciously to us; taught us so much about her life, her region, and her country; and made us feel so welcome – not like an annoyance (which some tour guides in Lapland do!). Heli has found her calling. I can’t recommend a day with her and her reindeer highly enough.

A true local experience in Lapland. Heli generously brought us to her home turf where we visited her neighbor’s reindeer farm and were able to stroll among the reindeer while feeding and petting them. Met the local reindeer farmers/herders and learned about life in Lapland. Afterwards we went next door to Heli’s family cabin and snowshoed on the lake and in the forests before enjoying some fireside treats that she prepared for us. DELIGHTFUL!! Highly recommend this A+ experience.
Best Ever !

One of the most fun trips we had with a tour operator. Thanks to Heli and Tolma. Heli was exceptional in handling our booking. She was flexible and was able to adjust our group size accordingly since I booked the tour a while ago. In the end, we ended up with 13 pax. The reindeer farm tour was quite interesting and well organised whole the snowshoeing was exceptionally fun ! We ended the tour with a nice bbq lunch ! We also had a nice short ride round the frozen lake in a sled pulled by a snowmobile ! Overall, we had an amazing day out !
Fantastic

This is a unique and authentic experience with a lot of variety, ideal for families with larger children from the age of 13. The scenery is breath-taking. The host was very cordial and provided lots of tasty snacks by a crackling fire. The typical berry juice could not be missed either. We really enjoyed this experience.

A unique, authentic experience, passionately organized by the creator of SOMA Adventures, a true local (which is rare). 100% nature. Good balance between farm visit, proximity to the Rennes, explanation of the local flora and fauna, a friendly time by the fire, and a snowshoeing trip. The half hour journey is well worth it compared to some packages. We recommend and will definitely go back if we had a second chance in Finland.
Authentic experience!

The tour with Heli was just incredible and our absolute highlight in Finland. After visiting the reindeer farm, we were provided with delicious drinks and snacks in Helis Hütte am See. Afterwards we did a snowshoe hike across the lake and into the forest. Heli told us a lot about Lapland, the culture and the animals. The tour is truly unique and takes place in small groups, away from mass tourism. Thanks again for this great and authentic experience!

We were recommended to do a tour with Heli by friends and it was worth every penny. Driving outisde of the touristic Levi really madr a difference to feel more connected to Finnish Lappland's wilderness. The Soma team showed us the reindeer farm, prepared a snack in their hut and led us on a snowshoe trip. An unforgettable experience!
