Reindeer Sledding & Sami Culture Guided Tour with Hot Drinks & Meal

About this experience

Reindeer Sledding & Sami Culture Guided Tour with Hot Drinks & Meal This 4.5-hour Tromso tour takes you beyond the city to experience authentic Sami culture and Arctic wildlife at Breivikeidet. You'll travel through snow-covered landscapes to reach a traditional Sami camp where you can feed reindeer, ride a traditional sled, and learn about indigenous culture from your English-speaking guide. The tour combines outdoor adventure with cultural immersion. You'll get up close with gentle reindeer in their natural environment, glide across the snow on a reindeer-pulled sled for 15-30 minutes (depending on weather conditions), and warm up in a traditional Sami hut called a gamme. Throughout the experience, your guide shares stories about Sami traditions, from their distinctive gákti clothing to the ancient art of joiking. After your Arctic activities, you'll sit down to a hearty meal inside the gamme, choosing between traditional Sami stew or a vegan option. Hot drinks by the fire provide the perfect ending to your cultural adventure before returning to Tromso with panoramic views of the Lyngen Alps.
