Tour programme
Meeting point
We will meet at the Tromsø Havn Prostneset bus terminal 20 minutes before the tour starts. There are two entrances: one by the buses and one between the terminal and the Clarion Edge hotel. Our guides will be located by the buses, where they will be ready to depart for the camp. From there, it will take approximately 25 minutes by bus to reach the Sami reindeer camp, where a local guide will be waiting for you.

Tour
With max. 2 people on a wooden sled, your guide and your new fluffy friends will take you around the valley and along the coast for a sleigh ride. Afterwards, you will have a chance to feed those magnificent creatures and learn how to throw a lasso (not on a reindeer though) before entering a typical gamme for a hot drink and cookies.
Around lunchtime, you will taste a traditional Sami soup bidos prepared over fire. With a hygge atmosphere sitting in a warm candlelit gamme you will finish the day by listening to the stories of Sami culture and traditional Sami folk song joik.
