Great experience and very friendly team! - The meeting points are very convenient (city center or Santa Claus Village), the activity is really great and the team is very friendly! Thank you for your welcome and your explanations (even if our level of English is not top, they express themselves very clearly and adapt), at the top!

Minor suggestion for the tour company, if you could share more info about the Santa Claus village, i.e. village map, must-do experience sharing, that will be more helpful…coz i was lost at beginning, but i did enjoy the exploring, although it took more time for me to figure out

Great experience - Fantastic day out, great to see the Huskies and the Reindeer, with some good information on Reindeer in Lapland.
Santa clause village was also a nice addition.
Plus it is all very ethical and the animals seem to be treated very well.

Wholesome day out! - We got to the farm and were immediately taken to the huskies. We very swiftly got to experience the sled ride. Once everyone had been we then got to spend 10/15mins stroking and cuddling with them - this is a good opportunity to take some photos. They really enjoyed the attention.
After that we were taken straight to the reindeer. The ride happens for everyone at the same time and as soon as you have finished, again, you can take photos of them.
To finish we went to a warm barn where we got some hot berry juice and a gingerbread. A lady talked us about reindeers in the country and this was really insightful.

Experience to do - Beautiful experience with sledding pulled by reindeer and dogs .... beautiful animals. The friendly and competent guides. Excellent dinner at the farm with an exquisite salmon soup, local butter bread, desserts and herbal teas, to make you forget the minus 27 degrees. The children also had a small but welcome gift.

A magical 6 hours in the snow. - We were worried after reading some of the December reviews but honestly the whole day was wonderful. The equipment stop to allow people to borrow overalls (highly recommend) was 20 minutes. The guides and staff at the farm were friendly and knowledgeable, the 2 coach loads were split into 3 groups and there wasn't much waiting at all. The husky ride was a quick circuit but the guides took photos for you and we could pet the dogs afterwards and ask questions. The reindeer ride was lovely and again, staff were chatty and took photos for us all. The reindeer story telling was in a warm hut and we were served hot fruit juice and ginger biscuits, the reindeer story was interesting and we learned about other animals in the area. We had the opportunity to eat at the on site restaurant but we chose to wait until we got to Santa Claus village as it was a little pricey. The bus then took us to Santa Claus village with a quick stop to return overalls before hand. We all had a wonderful day, big thanks to the guides for making it so.

Worth doing - We really enjoyed it. Out guide was good and the experience well managed even though there were lots of people.
The dog sled was the kids favourite as they got to pat the dogs.

Crowded tour - We booked this excursion because it included both reindeer and husky in the same tour.
We do not recommend this excursion as the group was massive, and the waiting time between activities was excessively long (which, in sub-zero temperatures, is highly uncomfortable). The contact with the reindeer and huskies was limited to just 5 minutes each!
The company needs to understand that profitability cannot be the sole objective. An excursion with three full buses visiting this farm made the activities impossible and unpleasant.
However, we would like to highlight the outstanding kindness of the guides (especially Vinicius and Anabela), who did everything they could to minimize the discomfort throughout the excursion.
