Discover one of the most exclusive and unique cultures in the world. Experience their way of life, their traditions, and what they hold dear. Here you can see and greet Sami in Sami costume and here you get the opportunity to feed and touch a reindeer if the reindeer wants it. You can also try your hand at lassoing reindeer antlers and hunting bow.
We also take the trip into a lavvo where we sit on reindeer skins around a campfire and hear about Sami culture and history, and we get the opportunity to taste dried and smoked reindeer meat.
In the winter and if it is possible, you can buy yourself a sleigh ride with the reindeer if the conditions are right. It`s depending on there is snow and if the reindeer’s daily form is in shape.
We never know what the weather will be like, or how the animal kingdom will behave, but if we are lucky, we will also be able to see the eagle fly curiously over us and in the sea outside there are both killer whales and harbor seals swimming past, but it’s not every day that we get to see something so spectacular, but we never know.
