About Tromsø Lapland
We, the Sámi, are the Indigenous people of Scandinavia and have lived and worked with reindeer for centuries.
We have generations of knowledge and experience with these fascinating and charming creatures, which have helped us survive in the cold and extreme conditions of the north. The reindeer is the true hero of the Arctic.
We would like to invite you to visit our Sámi camp and join us for a genuine, family-friendly reindeer sledding safari with amazing views of the famous Lyngen Alps.
We hope you will learn to cherish and respect these curious, furry creatures just as we do!
Our expert guides will also share the secrets of surviving life in the Arctic and show you traditional artefacts and treasures from our culture.
