    Excellent small group tour.

    Catherine_M, Jan 2024
    This tour company offers small group tours (ours had five people). This was appreciated as we learned that other tour companies have huge groups of up to 60 people! Our guide, Herve was great. As an experienced outdoorsman, he had lots of information for us and was happy to answer our questions. He anticipated our needs and took good care of us, ensuring we were first on the sleighs, had tea and cookies, and good seats in the tent.

    Definitely recommend

    The reindeer farm was lovely and the farmhands on site really showed that they cared about the reindeer. Highlights were the reindeer sleigh ride, feeding the reindeer, and having tea and biscuits in the traditional hut.

    Great

    Family Owned Farm

    Lisa_M, Feb 2022
    You’re searching for a reindeer safari right now, that’s why you’re reading this. Stop looking and choose this one. You will not be disappointed. This family owned reindeer farm is truly a once in a lifetime experience. Our guide was wonderful in explaining everything from the daily workings of the farm to the life cycle of the deer. How the climate and government are affecting their business and why they choose to allow tourists to Their farm. Oh, and we got to DRIVE the reindeer sled by ourselves! I appreciated the contact with the tour company themselves and the ride to and from the farm was smooth and much appreciated.

    A few fun hours with the reindeer

    Martina_B, Oct 2025
    The experience with the reindeer has been a lot of fun, the child (he is 4) has had a great time feeding him. Besides the farm boy was very friendly and the time of questions and talks afterwards has become very enjoyable.
