Full description

Discover a Sámi reindeer camp with this unique tour from Tromsø. Travel to the camp at Breivikeidet to feed the reindeer. Have the chance to see the northern lights and experience eating Bithos (a traditional Sámi dish).

Meet your guide and travel to camp Breivikeidet which is surrounded by mountains. Step off the bus and admire the view of the Lyngen Alps. Follow your guide to the reindeer fence to pet and feed the reindeer. Learn about these animals from your guide.

Spot the dancing Aurora should it be out. It's an excellent place to spot the Aurora in the night sky above your head as there is little artificial light. Continue to an authentic Gamme (traditional Sámi housing). Get cozy as you savor Bithos, which is a meal only reserved for special occasions.

Hear about what life is like in the Arctic for the Sámi people. Listen to a joik (Sámi folk music). Return to Tromsø.

Geweldige ervaring, goed verzorgd, toegewijde Sami mensen. Vervoer vanuit Tromso was goed geregeld, mooie nieuwe bus, vriendelijk chauffeur. tegen het eind konden we nog genieten van het noorderlicht. de buschauffeur bleef wachten tot het licht weg was voor hij aanstalten maakte om te vertrekken. De rendieren, het verhaal van de Sami, de locatie en het rendierstoofpotje was meer als de moeite waard. Top ervaring voor ons.

Een geweldige ervaring. Het was -22 en dat had ook een heel speciaal gevoel. Het Noorderlicht nog gezien, geweldig allemaal. De rendieren waren hongerig en wild rennend door elkaar. Maar dat is de natuur. Mooie belevenis en iets van de Sami cultuur te horen.
