5.00I feel like seeing some reindeer is something you have to do if you visit Lapland, theyre kind of a big deal, yes? Everyone involved was really nice and while the ride was the main pull I think I liked the feeding even more, those guys have an appetite wow! Jonne was able to tell quite interesting facts about reindeer and also the farm and our guide provided some nice commentary about the region. All in all recommandable!
Great experience

5.00It was really nice trip, definitely worth it, we were lucky there was a lot of snow, so even the ride from the hotel to the farm was magical and the sleigh ride was amazing. We get a lot of information about reindeers from the owner. Our tour guide was Pepi, very friendly and kind, taking the pictures of us and making sure, we're comfortable all the way there and back.
AMAZING, MAGICAL

5.00Absolutely amazing experience. A must do. Waaaaay better than some of the other commercialised reindeer trips like Santa’s Village. It is authentic and gives you a taste of the real culture within Lapland. The people who own the farm care very much about the animals. Full of snow and just an all round lovely experience. End it within a teepee with biscuits and hot juice. Perfect 4 hour half day trip. 10/10
Lovely ride!

4.00It was great and the team that they have there was amazing! The only problem that we had (ant it was our fault) is that we booked it really late and it was really hard to see or really enjoy the experience. I will try it again at a different time because the experience was great! We feed the reindeer, they gave us a (short) ride in a slide and told us stories about their history. It was memorable and the kids loved it!
Very nice.

5.00Everything went very well with StayLapland. The pick-up took place at our building and our guide Jemina was very patient with us. The transfer was smooth and Jemina answered to all our questions and gave us many insights into Rovaniemi and its activities. The reindeer farm visit was very interesting and the sleigh ride was very nice : we were very happy with our 9 year old son ! After the tea, biscuits and explanations, we had time to enjoy some sled time. The guide was always happy to help, to answer our questions and to take pictures of us. She adapted to the needs of our super active child. We enjoyed our time with StayLapland and will be happy to do some activities with them in the future !
