Lovely experience - Very friendly activity in a typical farm. The sleigh ride to start with is pleasant and reindeer feeding (in 2 stages, first those of the sleds then the young of the breeding) is a lovely moment. Then, an explanation of the herding profession and the reindeer place in Finland are over a small snack and a hot drink The photos taken by our Essi guide are superb

Very good, recommend! - This was a very authentic experience. You go to a real farm and get explanations from the owner. The surrounding is beautiful, you see plenty of reindeer and get a pancake and hot drinks in the hut. Amazing!

Excellent experience in an authentic place. - Friendly warm welcome, superb walk in the forest and a succulent crêpe snack cooked over a wood fire and an excellent homemade blueberry jam. In a hut with a central fire very nice atmosphere. The presentation of the farm and reindeer husbandry is very interesting. Very nice hosts, a top organization, the photographer very attentive and available to photograph us. We recommend this outing.

Worth it:) - Very nice farm of a Finnish lady, great ambience, long sleigh ride. a bit long way with 40min to the farm, however, if you are already in Rovaniemi , it is half as tragic. Think it's nice that professional photos are taken so you can fully concentrate on the animals:)

Informative and fun - Our tour guide was very friendly, could answer all questions and also tell us about Lapland in addition. The visit to the farm was also very nice and interestingly designed, everyone was super friendly and answered questions. It was definitely worth it.

Nice ride with cool pictures but misleading description - The guide was very friendly and took nice photo's (a big reason for me to pick this tour as a solo traveller, only having selfies gets boring). However, the tour feels a little rushed. It is described as a 'half day experience', but we were there for less than 1,5 hours, the rest is transport and waiting. They also advertise with 'small groups', but send multiple small groups at the same time, which kind of defeats the purpose. Upon arrival, we were quickly loaded into a sleigh, without much introduction/explanation of the farm or anything abour reindeer. the ride was quite fun, and it was cool to see the reindeer up really close. After the ride (about 20 min, but that is long enough), we got to feed our own reindeer quickly, but that was it. Not the feeding of the herd etc they show on the site. The warm drinks and pancakes afterwards were very nice though. Again, the guide was very friendly, can not be faulted. But the description as 'a half day experience on a reindeer farm' is misleading. It is a short ride, quick feed and then nice snacks.

Good for children, not suitable for adults. - You start directly with a ride without much explanation. This is at a relaxed pace (3-4 km/h) and takes about 20 min. After that there is short explanation, fast feeding and snack. For a small child what it is interesting to finally see a reindeer. The photos were very nice. But it feels extreme like a tourist check-in without a heart. With little things, love for details and well told stories, as well as longer time with the animals it would be much better.
