Tromsø

Reindeer feeding and Sami Culture

Greetings from Tromsø! We're a Sami reindeer herding family with roots that run as deep as the snowy valleys that cradle our 300-strong reindeer family. Our heritage is an open book, and we're eager to share it with you.

Start your Sami experience by hand-feeding a herd of 300 reindeer. Then, gather 'round the gamme for a piping hot, time-honored meal prepared right over the fire. It's the kind of feast that warms not just your belly but your heart. And as the night falls, prepare to be enchanted by the mesmerizing melodies of joiking, our traditional Sami songs, while we share the vivid tapestry of Sami history and stories.
