    Fantastic tour. Provided appropriate clothes given the -25 degree weather. Went on sleigh ride. After this cake and warm drinks and then a fabulous information session about the Sami people and reindeers.

    It was a great experience in a fairytale place surrounded by fully snow-covered trees and plants. The animals are very tame and also let humans feed them. Great organization and very nice staff. Thank you so much! 23.01.2026

    This reindeer safari was one of the most beautiful and peaceful experiences we had in Lapland — truly a winter dream. The whole ride felt like stepping into a postcard: endless snow, silent forests, and that calm Arctic atmosphere that makes you slow down and just take it all in. The sleigh ride itself was magical — simple, quiet, and honestly the perfect way to experience Lapland nature in such an authentic way. Feeding the reindeer afterwards was also such a special moment, especially if you love animals and want a closer connection with the experience. One thing I really appreciated was the customer service and how attentive the team was. My partner and I were staying in Ivalo (around 45 minutes away) and I didn’t realize how far that was when I booked. The guide noticed immediately and messaged me right away to confirm our location, which I honestly appreciated so much — it saved us from last-minute stress. They also helped us arrange transportation and explained the options clearly. We ended up booking a private round-trip shuttle for 220 EUR for two people, which was super convenient and smooth. It’s not included in the tour price, but the fact that they proactively caught the issue and helped coordinate everything made the whole experience feel well-managed and cared for. Not a “meh” at all — but if you’re going in early January, bring very warm clothes. It’s worth it, but the cold is real 😂❄️ I’d recommend this to absolutely anyone: couples, solo travelers, families, friends… it’s peaceful, scenic, and unforgettable.

  • Family with young children enjoyed it

    Dress up very warm..snow trousers etc. The Artic wear they supply can fit over your own stuff. Dress children very warm. In January at -30 their feet were freezing. A blanket is supplied and sleeping bags for the children but feet do freeze. The family were lovely and friendly, great hosts- a lovely talk in the warmth afterwards and very informative. Toilets, drink and cake supplied afterwards..

    Our experience at the reindeer farm was very nice in itself. The staff was great, the communication excellent. The ride with the reindeer was about 45 minutes, which was very good in our view so that the animals are not overworked. The track was wonderful in the deep snow. We were also assured that they have a day off from time to time. In addition, the animals are in the wild all summer long. The females and young continue to be in the forest throughout the winter to train survival. So if the staff can be believed, it is all partly species-appropriate. Nevertheless, I would leave the question to everyone themselves. At the end of the tour there was coffee and cake with additional “information round” about the animals and the traditional robes. So it was all very nice. Thanks for the wonderful experience!

  • Magical Experience

    The reindeer sleigh ride in Sarriselkä was nothing short of magical ! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and explained everything clearly. Riding through the beautiful snow covered forests under the Arctic sky felt like stepping into a winter wonderland. The reindeer were gentle and well cared for, and the pace of the ride was perfect for soaking in the breathtaking scenery. We even had a chance to learn about the local Sami culture, which added a special touch to the experience. Warm drinks by the fire afterward were the perfect ending. Highly recommend this for anyone visiting Lapland !

    It was a very nice experience to drive the animals through the snow, calm and peaceful. We were picked up on time, short drive to the farm and after the safari there was hot chocolate or coffee with cake.
