We would like to invite you to visit our Saami camp with hundreds of reindeer surrounded by stunning scenery and the famous Lyngen Alp mountains. This is a family friendly activity enjoyed by all ages. Our camp is far away from the city lights and noise, so it is the perfect spot to look out for the northern lights while being surrounded by hundreds of reindeer. The natural wonders can sometimes be predicted but never guaranteed.
You will participate in the daily feeding session of the cutest herd of reindeer at our camp, and here you will have plenty of time to get up-close and personal with our charming creatures.
You will also be welcomed into our wooden lavvo (Saami hut) to warm up when needed and there you will be served a range of hot beverages to drink (coffee, tea, chocolate) and a hot meal for dinner.
Our expert guide will tell you about the fascinating reindeer and share some secrets about how to survive life in an extreme Arctic nature. By taking part in this evening excursion we hope you will be charmed by our reindeer - the true hero in the Arctic.
At the transfer you will share a bus with up to 48 of our guests who participate in different activities.
Sample Menu
• Biddos - Traditional Saami stew consisting on reindeer meat, potatoes, carrots, onion and brown sauce.
• Vegan soup - We serve you a hearty vegan soup with a variety of vegetables (Carrot, Onion, cauliflower, broccoli, green peas, and lentils).

We had a great time feeding the very gentle reindeers and wandering amongst the herd before heading indoors for a light meal whilst listening to fascinating facts about the Sami people and life as a herder. A great way to spend an evening!
Some tips:
- the meal offered is a relatively simple stew along with bread, tea and biscuits, so don't book with the expectation of a feast. You can choose the traditional reindeer meat stew or a vegetarian stew when you check in for the tour.
- we were offered the option to purchase a reindeer sled ride on the night as they had spare slots available (though we didn't take this up as we were happy to just spend time with reindeers)
- there was a brief mention of the northern lights but this tour is really not designed for northern light watching and there are no specific activities prepared for it - this is merely an opportunity to see it given the fact that the location is generally away from light pollution.

It is like they phoned in this tour. We were first put on reindeer sleds with no explanation of the history or culture of the sleds, then fed the reindeer which was fun, and then a Sami man gave us the worst rambling talk about nothing, accompanied by bad food.

I recommend this to anyone. Great time feeding the reindeer. You get educated on the reindeer which is important, since they are a vulnerable species. The people are very nice and soup was yummy. I am a vegetarian and they made veggie soup. So yes book the trip. Much love Sandra ❤️

Alles sehr gut und verläßlich organisiert . Anreise mit dem Bus ca. 45 Min.
Das Füttern der Rentiere war eine sehr schöne und besondere Erfahrung- es gab eine kurze Eiweisung durch die Eigentümer um die Tiere nicht in eine Streßsituation zu versetzen. Des weiteren gab es spontan die Möglichkeit, auf eine Rentierschlittenfahrt upzugraden ( ca. 40 Euro ). Das haben wir gemacht und uns in warme Thermoanzüge gequetscht;-).
Dann ging es ca. 20 Min. zu zweit durch die sternenklare Nacht. Sehr schöne Stimmung und man hatte das Gefühl , in einer anderen Welt unterwegs zu sein. Das ganze wäre nur noch durch die Sichtung von Polarlichtern zu toppen gewesen....
Im Anschluß gab es leckeren Rentiereintopf bei bollerndem Ofen, so dass man sich wieder aufwärmen konnte. Die Erklärungen zu der samischen Kultur erfolgte durch einen, in traditioneller Kluft gekleideten jungen Samen. Sehr gute Englischkenntnisse und unterhaltsam erzählt, haben wir viel über diese im hohen Norden lebende ethnische Gruppe erfahren.
Ich kann diese Tour sehr empfehlen zumal man dieses Volk durch den Tourpreis sicherlich unterstützt.
