I would like to visit a reindeer farm to learn more about how the reindeer live here and how it works on the farm. We left almost 10 minutes later than the scheduled start time. The ‘farm’ was a meadow with 5 reindeer tied to a tree. The only nice thing was that you got the chance to take pictures with one of the reindeer. Then we went to a hut to hear ‘stories’ about reindeer farming, but all the guide said was “do you have any questions about the reindeers?”. You also have to wait another hour for the shuttle bus to return after the activity. Conclusion: I didn’t learn anything about reindeer and feeding reindeer was possible for €5 in Santa Claus Village, a much more fun experience. Not recommended.
Great reindeer tour

Great opportunity to spend time with and learn about these magnificent animals. And the warm berry juice after was delicious.
