What you can expect
Discover the traditional Sami way of life on this day trip from Tromso. Have a traditional Sami dinner and meet reindeer herders while they tell you about their culture and their beliefs. Meet and feed the reindeer and listen to local stories in a traditional tent.
Hop aboard a spacious bus at a conveniently-located meeting point in Tromso and transfer to the Sami camp. Step back in time as you see how the reindeer and the Sami have been living and working on this land for centuries.
Get to feed the herd of around 300 wild reindeer with some even eating from your hand. Be invited for hot tea, coffee, or hot chocolate around the fire inside a candle-lit lavuu (a traditional Sami tent or hut).
Savour a relaxed meal including bidos (a traditional Sami stew that is often served at Sami weddings and other special occasions) cooked over an open fire. A vegetarian option is also possible.
Head to the lavuu and gather around the fire to listen to stories about Sami culture. Watch your Sami guide will perform a joik (traditional Sami song) for the guests.
Gaze up and if you are lucky and the sky is clear you will have the chance to spot a dazzling display of the northern lights directly above the reindeer camp.
