Sámi Home: Travelers are welcomed at the hosts’ Sámi home in Kautokeino, where they are introduced to the day’s journey and learn the basics of reindeer herding culture.
Arctic Tundra and Free-Roaming Reindeer Herd: Guests travel into the Arctic mountains to meet a free-roaming reindeer herd in its natural environment. Along the way, there are opportunities to observe the animals, learn about their behavior, and, depending on the season and conditions, help feed the herd. The focus is on respectful, non-invasive interaction guided by Sámi knowledge and tradition.
