This day trip was very interesting, fun and informative; we learned about Sami culture and reindeers/herding from a Sami woman (in Tromsø studying at the university) who spoke authentically and well of her culture and was a great tour guide. Thank you to all! The reindeer were super cute, got to feed them for a while :)

Very nice experience of feeding the reindeers and getting educated by the Sami people! A pity that we didn’t get sledded by the reindeers as it was too icy, but nonetheless a great experience off the bucket list
Amanda_C, Mar 2026
Loved it!!! The best part of my trip to Norway!! A 15 min ride is more than enough, so don't worry if they cut the ride short.

Experience was wonderful feeding the reindeer, learning about Sami culture and the meal. Our sledding was canceled because it was too icy for the animals. I understand, but wish their was some alternative offered. They gave us a prompt refund for this portion.

The idea is lovely but sledding was disappointing. For a start all of the sledges were wet and for people that didn’t have waterproof clothing it was miserable sitting in wet clothes. It wouldn’t have taken much to have quickly wiped off the wood. We thought we were going through the countryside on a small trip, but it ended up just being led round with the group of sledges through one big field. The second part we were able to feed the reindeer, but a lot of the reindeer were not interested because they had already been fed by the previous group. The lunch was very tasty and the talk by the Sami was very interesting and informative. We did learn lots and our young guides were great.

Alicia_K, Feb 2026
Reindeer sledding was so much fun. I chose this adventure through Viator because of the length of the sledding experience. It was much
longer than any I had seen. We had fun first feeding the reindeer and then being pulled through a beautiful snowy pastureland overlooking a fjord. Afterwards we learned about the Sami people and enjoyed a lunch of reindeer stew. There was a small gift shop on the property with unique items to remember this day by. This is a “must do” experience.
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Dear Alicia,
We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed your reindeer sledding adventure!
It’s wonderful that you had fun feeding the reindeer, taking in the snowy views, and learning more about Sami culture. We’re glad you also enjoyed the reindeer stew and found some special items in the gift shop to remember your day.
Warm greetings from Tromsø, we look forward to welcoming you again in the future 🦌❄️
Gary_C, Feb 2026
This tour is all about reindeer and the Sami culture which are inextricably related. The sleigh ride was fine. Feeding the reindeer proved challenging as many of the male animals with antlers could become aggressive. The meal (reindeer stew) was a bit unsettling after having just finished feeding them, but that is what reindeer herding is all about. You will learn a lot about the Sami and even learn to sing a 'yoy' song!
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Dear Gary,
Thank you for your review!
We’re glad you enjoyed learning more about the close connection between reindeer and Sami culture, and that the experience gave you meaningful insight into traditional life. It’s great to hear you also had the chance to try sledding, feed the reindeer, and experience the storytelling and joik.
We appreciate you joining us and hope the day gave you many memorable moments. Welcome back! 🤍

Layla_D, Feb 2026
Excellent tour with wonderful Sami guides! Good food(reindeer stew or vegetarian stew option), and coffee, tea and hot chocolate with cookies provided all day! They also had several warming huts with log fires.
Feeding the reindeer and sleigh ride were highlights.
They might want to stock more in the gift shop--that was limited.
Wear long underwear and all your warm gear--it was freezing!

Experience includes nice coach to the tour area. Not that long of a drive from Tromso city center, twenty minutes or so. Once at the tour you will be greeted by the Sami guide. Very good overview of the Sami culture in the past, present and going into the future. Although there are alot of people, they try to make it feel more personalized and do a good job with that. The sledding was for a good amount of time around the grounds you get to feed the herd. Afterwards, you are treated to hot drinks and stew inside by the fire. Afterwards, you are treated to additional information on Sami culture. Unique experience that is worth the price.

We loved the experience. The reindeers were beautiful. I wished we could have had more time feeding them. The Sami culture is fascinating. Learnt a lot of new things. My only downside would be the food. We didn’t enjoy the reindeer or vegetable stew. Loved the hot chocolate and cookies though!

Stephanie_L, Feb 2026
We had the 10am tour, nice big warm comfortable coach which takes you to the location, around 30mins drive. Upon arrival we were greeted by our lovely guide in full sami attire, the guide was lovely and we headed straight into a cosy teepee with a fire where they explained how the day would go, we were given coloured bands in groups to help differentiate those who had already completed their sleigh ride. The sleigh ride was fun although its more of a long sleigh train as its all connected its not an individual sleigh for each group which would have been nicer. It was sufficient time on the sleigh not too short they took photos of us at the end too. Afterwards we got to feed the reindeer freely and wander around large field/ enclosure where there are hundreds to feed and interact with, you can stay out for as long as u wish or if its too cold you can go into the teepee for unlimited hot drinks and cookies by the fire. Lunch was at 12pm we tried the veg option which was a bit like a tomatoe/minestrone soup it was nice. Afterwards at 12.45 we continued to gather round the fire in the teepee and listen to sami culture and stories and colonisation, it felt a little heavy for the type of excursion but can appreciate it was real life hardships for this culture. We finished with some traditional sami singing of Yoic which was fun, it was a good tour for what it was just not my personal favourite. Id reccomend doing this tour if you have multiple days but wouldn't make it a priority tour for me personally but definetley if you have time. Let me be clear it was not a bad tour just down to personal preference and I have done reindeer excursions in my home country too but it might be a different experience for someone who has never. Thanks again x

Yi_L, Jan 2026
A fantastic and unique experience which I would highly recommend. The tour delivered on everything it promised including a decent sled ride, feeding time, a warm meal and then some Sami experience. Was pretty well coordinated, although I would appreciate some more free time. They were very welcoming with warm food and beverages. It was a slight bit crowded but still very well run. Our Sami guide was fantastic and she was super informative and engaging. We learned a lot and found it to be a good enriching experience connecting with local history and culture.

Garry_A, Jan 2026
The sledging took place around the very large compound that the reindeer were housed in for the winter months. There was an opportunity to get up close with the herd and feed the reindeer and see their personalities come out. There were plenty of tents and cabins with log fires to warm up in through the visit and snacks and drinks laid on. The reindeer stew was really nice. The session on Sami heritage and their way of life was excellent and delivered by two young Sami girls who really knew there stuff and were clearly proud of their roots. To be recommended!

What a great day! Really easy pick up, just met them at bus station and they ticked me off the list and showed me to the coach, 25/30 min drive to place, get there we immediately started feeding the reindeer and I got a few pets in, then did the sledding, the reindeer stew was really tasty and I had like 3 hot chocolates coz I liked them that much, also had like 6 cookies, I really enjoyed the talk about Sami history and culture, Andreas was really lovely and informative and allowed lots of questions, left talk wanting to know even more it was that interesting, I’ve bought a book on Sami history so I can learn more.

The reindeer are so beautiful! The sledding was a great experience. The hot food and drinks were plentiful. Our Sami leader did a great job for a young guy. It was great to learn the Sami history and culture. Dress as warmly as possible, I’ve never been so cold! Even with an open fire. The only downside was we had a cranky lady who organised us on the bus and the sled. She was very intolerant. From my own experience working in a similar environment, you have to remember that it’s everyone’s first experience and lifetime memories.

Dora_F, Jan 2026
We had a lovely experience! The tour started with a 20 min bus ride to the reindeer farm. When we got there we went straight to feeding and petting the reindeer and after 30 min the tour guides called us to the sleigh ride. We also had cookies, tea, hot chocolate and water always at our disposal as well as a wc to go to whenever we wanted. At around 12pm they gave us lunch (reindeer stew and also a vegetarian option) which we could repeat as many times as we wanted ;)). After lunch they called us to a little cabin with a huge bonfire to warm us and to talk about the Sami culture (Maria was incredible at telling us about her culture!). Then it was time to go back to Tromsø. We loved every second and wish we could do it again! Really recommend this experience!!!❤️❤️❤️🦌❄️

This tour is an absolute must if you come all the way to the Arctic.You have to see the reindeer,travel in Time Machine back to your childhood,feel and laugh like a child again.Feeding those cute creatures,when they gently push you with their antlers is priceless 😃Sitting by the fire listening to the interesting facts about Sami culture and traditions from a Sami girl was wonderful too,now I can educate my friends.

First and foremost our Sami guide Irja was fantastic. Her family are reindeer herders and she was so articulate, full of knowledge and able to manage the crowd with grace and humour (it was shame some people were talking while she was presenting). A very impressive young lady. Hearing a little of the culture, her family's experience in the far north, and the Sami Joik (song) were particular highlights.
The reindeer were generally very friendly, although weren't too interested in the food when we were there. Some were very cute which made eating the delicious reindeer stew a little tricky!
The reindeer belong to the Sami people and this tour is fully Sami run. In fact some of the money goes to buying the feed for the reindeer which is becoming increasingly necessary due to climate change (and prohibitively expensive for the herders), so it felt good to know the money they did make was going to the right place and people. It was a real honour to be there.

Dear Maddy,

We’re thrilled that Irja’s storytelling made your visit special. It’s wonderful to hear that the reindeer stew added to the experience too!

A fun and informative experience. Being this close to reindeer was great - just be mindful of the antlers! The sled ride is led by one of the farm workers at walking pace, with each reindeer tethered to the sled in front. I chose the long ride but the short ride is probably sufficient. After the feeding and sled ride, the hot chocolate and biscuits sat in the lavvu tent, around the roaring fire, is a great way to warm up. A serving of reindeer or vegetable soup is offered before heading to another tent where a young Sami woman informed us about reindeer habits, and the Sami way of life and history.
