After checking in with our guide, you will hop on a drive to our camp. On your way, you will be able to enjoy the beautiful Northern Norwegian mountains and upon arrival, you will be greeted by our Sami guide who will give a brief safety introduction and guide you to your activity!
Part of the group will join the sled ride right away. Immersed in Northern Norway breathtaking nature, you will try the oldest mean of transportation and feel like a real Sami in the Tundra! Then it will be time for the second group to take part in this lovely and ancient activity.
After the sled tour, you will head towards the fence and feed our lovely reindeers (many of the reindeer will even eat from your hand!).
Right after, we will gather in our Gamme (a modern interpretation of a traditional Sami hut) or in the Lavvu (a traditional Sami tent, much like a Tipi) where you will enjoy some hot drinks and taste Biddos, a traditional Sami stew served at celebrations, with Reindeer meat, carrots and potatoes. We also offer a vegan alternative, a veggie soup with potato, turnip, carrot, onion and leek.
When we are all settled and comfortable, our Sami guide will tell you more about the Sami culture and history, they will show you some of our traditional handicrafts and clothes too. There will be also time for questions, feel free to participate and ask our guide. Curiosity is always welcome and encouraged!
