Tromsø: Sami Reindeer Sledding｜Norway

Begin your adventure with an included bus transfer from Tromsø Bus Terminal to Nordkjosbotn (a 1-hour drive). Meet your guide at the Sami camp upon arrival, and step into the world of the Sámi people. Spend a magical evening with reindeer, gentle and curious beings who have lived alongside Sámi families for generations.

Meet the reindeer up close, feed them by hand, and then try the ancient Sámi way of getting around: reindeer sledding. This relaxing and short 10–15 minute ride gives you a taste of the traditional winter travel method Sámi ancestors relied on for centuries.

Try your luck with the traditional Sámi lasso (not on real reindeer) and feel the rhythm of a skill deeply rooted in Sámi culture. As the daylight fades, be welcomed into a warm, fire-lit lávvu (Sámi tent).

Hear personal stories about reindeer husbandry, Sámi heritage, and the way Sámi people live today, and relax by the fire and enjoy freshly brewed coffee or tea along with a hot meal.
