What a great experience. We took our toddler who really enjoyed feeding the reindeers. The reindeers were so gentle and being that close to them felt magical. The reindeer sledding in the snowy wilderness was just fantastic and once again felt magical. I loved learning about the Sami culture. Jon our Sami guide answered everyone’s questions and gave really good explanations. We thoroughly enjoyed the stew too- it was so tasty. On arrival and throughout our time in the huts there were cookies and hot drinks. The coach journey there and back was comfortable taking roughly 45 minutes and we were also provided with a toddler car seat without hassle. I just cannot fault the whole experience.

Loved the personal interaction with the reindeer, learning about the Sami culture and issues was also interesting and gave insight into a people within a region that few are aware of.

If you do this tour after dog sledding, it appears very slow, however it should be taken on its own merits. Ticked my bucket list, would have preferred two reindeer per sled as it would seem more comfortable for animals. Feeding wild reindeer’s and highlight of tour, cultural talk and ease that we could ask questions from our guide. It was very interesting and eye opening to new information about Sami people that I had no previous knowledge.

The tour starts with about an hour in a coach out into the countryside before you meet your reindeer

Really really wonderful experience and absolutely recommended! I'd do it again now. The tour of sledding, feeding and Sami culture was really exciting and authentic. Special thanks to the guide Michael, very good: prepared, passionate and able to explain in a clear and interesting Sami culture, the relationship with reindeer and life in these extraordinary places. The explanations were really good and never boring. And above all, he was very clear in speaking English, so much so that even we who are not very experienced understood everything. The reindeer are very sweet and very nice, being able to approach them and feed them was a unique moment. The reindeer ride was very suggestive, surrounded by fantastic nature, quiet and enchanting. The idea of having lunch in the typical circular house, welcoming and characteristic, which makes the experience even more authentic, is also beautiful. Cookies, hot chocolate and hot tea are very welcome, perfect to warm up and enjoy the atmosphere. A complete experience, well organized and full of emotions, which I recommend to anyone who really wants to experience the magic of the North and Sami culture

Small but beautiful group ride of friendly native sleds explaining in English the culture and customs of this ethnic group and finding oneself in the middle of the reindeer with their antlers is impressive enough to feed them. Many tourists like us normal nevertheless friendly

The tour was very enjoyable, evenly paced and well organized. We drove for an hour outside of Tromso, enjoyed feeding the reindeer, then sledding, followed by a hearty soup and stories from the Sami. It’s truly a wonderful experience and a great way to spend a morning in Tromso. Highly recommend.

The sleigh ride was so much fun and getting to be with the reindeer while feeding them was also a highlight. Learning about the Sami culture was very interesting and it was fun to try the reindeer stew.

If you do the excursion, do it right. Pay extra for the reindeer feeding the sleigh ride and then lunch with the Sami cultural presentation. We did the Viator excursion for this. The only thing I didn’t like was it was a huge bus load of people I prefer smaller groups.
