Unrepeatable, do it - If there is one tour you should definitely do if you are in Tromso, it is this. You can't help but do it, starting from the fact that you will meet real Sami people, who will make you fall in love with their culture and history, passing among reindeer and feeding them is too much fun and unique experience that makes this experience truly something unique. The delicious dinner served closes the circle. The only cons is that it lasts a while, I would have preferred to stay just half an hour longer or even an hour, to try to see if a bit of Northern Lights came out. N.B. If you book in months not really winter probably the sled will not make you do it because the snow may be little

Night of a lifetime! - What a brilliant night. Well organised, superb experience, excellent staff and local Sami guides - and best of all - the Northern Lights put on a show for us. Highly recommend this excursion if you are in Tromso.

Memories in seeing reindeer and sami culture - Wonderful. We went for the Reindeer and the Sami culture. We got actually what we wanted 😊. Mother Nature gave us rain but we gained much more in the experience. All ages can experience and enjoy. No matter the weather. Life grows with seeing in person.

A great experience I would recommend! - After a short bus journey, we arrived at the camp, greeted by Ana and Luna. After a brief introduction to the evening, we were sent to feed some reindeer and take part in some reindeer sledding! Both activities were great fun (the female reindeer prodding at you gently with their antlers to get access to your feed buckets was funny and the short sledding trip was nice under the night sky). We then had hot beverages (tea/coffee/hot chocolate) and were offered the 3 course meal (I had the vegetarian option which was nice). The meal was slightly interrupted in the best way - the Aurora came out and was beautiful in the sky. The last part of the evening was spent listening to our Sami guides tell us more about their culture, the reindeer and answering any of our questions. I definitely recommend this trip!

An absolute must do! - Absolutely fantastic experience- the staff were so friendly and informative. We were also lucky enough to see the Aurora and there were plenty of opportunities to watch and take photos. The reindeer were very well looked after and really enjoyed getting to feed them and see more about their little personalities (some sassier than others). Would recommend this trip to anyone!

Underwhelming experience but lovely people - 5 stars for the very warm and engaging Luna, who sang for us and explained the very interesting history of the Sami people! Unfortunately the reindeer sledding and feeding were quite underwhelming and disappointing as we just sat on a sled and slowly inched a circle around the feeding area in the dark.

Disappointed - This could have been organised better. We were put on a bus with no explanation and drove off. We had no idea where we were going and how long it would take to get there. You need a tour guide on board or at least an explanation on boarding. We then fed the reindeer and waited for our sleigh tour. This left a lot of space for another possible activity which was wasted. The meal was very poor, just a bowl of soup. We were all hungry and bought some food when we returned to Tromso. The explanation of the culture was excellent though. At the end we were rushed on to the buses with no opportunity to see the Northern Lights which were out there. Would I go again -- no, a lot of money but should be better organised
