What To Expect
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to experience the taste of my Sami culture's traditional food? To feel the crunching of snowy landscapes under your feet and experience the fascinating beauty of the surrounding nature in the presence of reindeer? I welcome you to my home, to meet my reindeer. I will tell you everything you want to know about my reindeer and you will also get the chance to feed them. If there is a snowstorm, I will teach you more about the weather and how we protect ourselves. We start the tour in the village of Jukkasjärvi with a 25-minute snowmobile ride out to the camp, far away from city life and noise. There you will meet our reindeer, and can take a classic reindeer sleigh ride. You will be served Sami-inspired food and cold or warm drinks.

5.00We had a great day with Niklas and his reindeer. We were picked up and then drove behind the snowmobile to his camp. We got a lot of explanation about the reindeer and the Sami culture, were allowed to take care of the reindeer and got a nice lunch in a warm tippie. Niklas takes good care of his animals and it is a genuine and beautiful experience. We were allowed to ride with the sledge and reindeer Billy and got lots of hugs from Rosie. All in all, highly recommended to book this tour! Small group and lots of attention to the animals!
Wow

5.00From the moment that we were picked up, Nicholas was very friendly , professional, attentive, informative and very proud of his Sami heritage. Lots of questions and he was happy to share his knowledge with us all. He introduce us to his herd , fed them and interacted with the reindeers, although shy and wild, with forest foraged snacks they became almost your best friend. We rode on a reindeer led sled around the tracks by ourselves, which was amazing. We then headed into the teepee around the warm fire to have a light refreshment of combination of salted / smoke reindeer and moose meat which was cooked over a hot plate. This was served on warmed up souva type home made bread on a bed of crème fraiche mixed with lingonberry jam. It was simply delicious and beautifully cooked by Nicholas. Finish off with homemade hot lingonberry tea We did not know what to expect but this was an experience that was amazing with a very knowledgable proud operator. It’s a must do on your bucket list and highly recommended to all. A truly magnificent morning day outing ! Thank you Nicholas for the memorable time and day spent with you
One of the highlights of our trip

5.00Our morning with Niklas was one of the highlights of our trip to Northern Sweden. We really enjoyed spending time with him and meeting Nasti, Rosa, Billy and especially the handsome Ghost! The reindeer really all had their own personalities. Niklas was incredibly generous in answering our questions and we enjoyed getting some insight into the Sami way of life and how younger generations are carrying traditions forward while modernizing where it makes sense. The smoked moose souvas Niklas prepared was delicious, and we appreciated the opportunity to warm our feet in the lavvu on a day where temps hovered near -30C. Felt like a real slice of life in northern Sweden and is exactly the kind of connection and experience we look for when traveling. Was not surprised at all when my teenage son said this was his favorite experience of our whole trip .
Highly Recommend This Unique Sami Adventure

5.00Ottima esperienza. Nikklas, il titolare, è gentile, simpatico e coinvolgente. le sue renne sono super simpatiche, e l’esperienza del cibo spettacolare. Il giro consiste nel vedere e nutrire le renne, fare un breve giro in slitta e poi via nel tepee per un pasto caldo. la temperatura era di -37 gradi, ma era uno spettacolo. (P.s. sono vicini all’ice hotel, e ti vengono a prendere e volendo riportare al tuo hotel) ———- Excellent experience. Nikklas, the owner, is kind, friendly, and engaging. His reindeer are super friendly, and the food experience is spectacular. The tour consists of seeing and feeding the reindeer, taking a short sleigh ride, and then off to the tepee for a hot meal. The temperature was -37 degrees, but it was spectacular. (P.S. they are close to the ice hotel, and they will pick you up and take you back to your hotel if you want)
Thank you Niklas!

5.00Wonderful experience. Nicholas was friendly and kind. He shared with us stories from his family and was eager to answer all of our questions. He also cooked a delicious meal for us. We got to know his reindeer and take a sled ride all while enjoying beautiful snowy Nordic landscapes. Totally worth it!
An amazing experience...

5.00We had an incredible experience on the Sami reindeer tour with Nicklaus. He was a genuinely kind, warm, and knowledgeable guide who made us feel so welcome. Learning about Sami culture and traditions was fascinating, and the reindeers took us on a truly magical adventure around the camp. It’s a memory we’ll treasure for a long time. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting the area.
