Beautiful setting for reindeer feeding and Sami cultural experience. Our Sami was very engaging and interesting and gave us so much wonderful information about their lives and work with reindeer herds. Great reindeer stew for lunch as well. Friendly animals and they were very hungry when we first went in to feed them. Very enjoyable tour!

Love feeding the reindeer. It was a great experience. The Sami man was great. He answered so many questions about the life and culture of his people. We learned so much, and he also had a sense of humor so it was entertaining and educational. Pice of advise.....dress casual, the reindeer sometimes jump on you for food and it can be muddy, but it made for good laughs and great pictures.

We booked the Reindeer Sledding/Feeding/Sami Culture tour, but unfortunately the sledding part of the trip was cancelled due to the weather conditions. A bit disappointed of course, but it would only have been a 15-minute ride & we understand that the safety of the animals must always be a priority. Anyway, the tour guide said we would receive a partial refund & this was processed on our credit card account within 48 hours. The drive (large coach, big group) through the beautiful landscape was wonderful, we saw some fabulous scenery. When we arrived at the reindeer farm, we were surprised (and slightly disappointed) to discover that the "traditional lavvu Sami tent" which we expected to experience during the lunch & Sami Culture part of the trip was actually a rather new looking, purpose-built large circular wooden structure. We suppose the traditional tents are not big enough to accommodate such big groups, but this was not mentioned in the advertising by Tromso Lapland. Feeding the reindeer was fun; we had plenty of time to be with them and take some great photos. We then had hot chocolate, tea or coffee in the "tent" followed by a hot lunch of either reindeer or vegetable stew. After feeding & admiring the reindeer, the idea of a reindeer meat lunch was (literally) "a bit hard to swallow" & the majority of people opted for the vegetarian stew (us included). The young man who gave a presentation about Sami culture was very entertaining and funny. We expected to hear some traditional Sami music and singing, but this didn't happen, perhaps other tour companies offer a more "traditional" experience.
