“We spent a wonderful afternoon reindeer sledding, feeding and enjoying the hospitality of the Sami people. We opted for the 25-30 minute sled ride which was well worth it. The cultural experience was fascinating and very enjoyable and the Sami guides were wonderful hosts. There were lots of opportunities to come inside by the fire and get warm with hot drinks and the stew was delicious. Make sure you wrap up very warm, we did and were fine. The Sami crafts were beautiful quality. All this just a short coach drive from Tromso and very well organised.”

Drive your own husky team through Tromsø’s snowy wilderness, then warm up with hot chocolate, cake, and friendly Alaskan huskies.
“This was an excellent experience. Transport from the front of our hotel on time. About 40 min drive to the Husky place. Heavy duty cold weather clothing provided. A quick tutorial about standing on and riding the sled. Then meet the huskies formally. Who are ready to get going. You need a good level of fitness! The whole sledding experience lasted about 90 mins and covered around 10km! I was able to swap sled driving with my wife thankfully. As we sledded through fresh snow it could get hard going as you have to get off and help push the sled to help the huskies especially on inclines. Then a…”
Feed 300 reindeer, taste Sami stew, hear joik songs, and learn about Arctic life on this warm, memorable Tromsø day tour.
“The ride to the location took about 40 minutes (sit on the left in the driving direction if you want to have the view of the water). Once we arrived you walk a short but quite steep path to reach the huts and feeding grounds. There is a very brief introduction inside where you can grab some warm drinks and cookies before heading out to find the reindeer to feed. In our case they were hiding a bit far away in the forest (maybe like a 5 minute walk). You have about one hour to feed them at your own pace or return to the big hut if you get…”

Cruise silently from Svolvær to Trollfjord aboard a hybrid-electric boat, with eagle watching, fjord scenery, guides, and underwater views.
“It was a great tour with a bit of everything: spectacular landscapes, sea eagles, and a fantastic narrator. The troll fjord was even more beautiful than its southern brothers. It is trully a magical place. The only setback was the fog that wouldn’t let us see through and admire the fjord properly but we kind of expected that given the time of the year. Luckily enough, the fjord is small enough and the boat bring you close enough. Also, thanks to the fog, you get a bewitching kind of vibe in exchange.”

“This was a great introduction to Sami culture, and the reindeer were a lot of fun to feed and be around. Plenty of time to be very close to the reindeer, and the guides were very approachable and knowledgeable. We also loved the vegetarian food option. If it wasn't for the cloud cover we would have probably seen the northern lights as well.”
Every kind of day out, and the best of each.
