Reindeer Feeding and Sámi Culture – Afternoon

General information

This tour is operated by Tromsø Lapland.

The camp is located around 50 minutes from Tromsø city centre, in a beautiful valley surrounded by mountains.

Here, you will meet a herd of more than 120 reindeer. You can feed the reindeer, see them up close and take photos in peaceful, natural surroundings.

After visiting the reindeer, you will gather inside the lavvu, a traditional Sámi tent. A Sámi guide will share stories about Sámi culture, traditions and everyday life as a reindeer herder. You will also learn how these traditions are being passed on today.

A traditional Sámi lunch of bidos will be served. Bidos is a warming reindeer stew made with potatoes and carrots. A vegan alternative is also available, consisting of a Norwegian-style vegetable soup made with potatoes, swede, carrots, onion, leek, seasoning and stock. The soup is gluten-free.
