Overnight in traditional Saami tent and reindeer feeding

This cultural adventure includes reindeer feeding, before you can enjoy a hot meal served in our lavvo while listening to stories about the Saami culture and history. The location has little artificial lighting and excellent conditions to hunt for the Northern Lights. Instead of heading back to the city center where you might miss a late night dance from the Aurora, stay at this good location in a traditional Saami tent, known as lavvo, and sleep on reindeer hides in winter-insulated sleeping bags.
Since you are located a good distance from the bright lights of the city, you can thoroughly enjoy the splendors of the night sky. Allow yourself to become one with nature and replenish your mind and soul on your overnight excursion.
After breakfast the next day you are transferred back to the city.
You are back at the hotel around 10:00 the next day.
