Description - What to expect
Leave Tromso city center in the evening for a 25-minute drive to the Sami’s reindeer camp, and visit a traditional farm located in Tromso’s frozen wastelands. Once in the camp, your local guide will introduce you to the traditional Sami lifestyle and culture and will make sure that you get a glimpse of life in the Arctic including an opportunity to feed the reindeer.Next, to your Tromso reindeer tour, you can warm up and relax by tasting steaming coffee, tea, or hot chocolate inside a warm candlelit gamme (Traditional Sami Hut). Your hosts will have prepared a traditional three-course meal to enjoy while listening to stories derived from ancient Sami culture and learning about their beliefs and connection to the Northern Lights. However, the authentic Sami experience wouldn't be complete without the chance to enjoy a Joik performance, a traditional Sami folk song.
