Authentic reindeer experience – not to be missed! - We had a touching and beautiful experience with reindeer, immersed in the snowy landscapes of Kiruna. During the hike we had the opportunity to feed the reindeer, take a sleigh ride and even take them for a walk, getting in touch with them in an authentic and respectful way. The animals are visibly cared for and loved, and this is thanks to Nicla, the owner Sami, who with great passion and kindness shares his culture and his bond with these beautiful animals. We also had lunch in the tent eating a typical Sami dish cooked by Nicla, really delicious! A unique experience, perfect for those who want to get up close and personal with Sami traditions and live a special moment with reindeer. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Authentic reindeer experience - Terrific morning spent with Niklas and his reindeer. Started with a snowmobile ride across a frozen lake to get to the location of his reindeer; time spent feeding the reindeer; a short trip over the lake pulled in a sled by one of them; a light lunch of local produce around an open fire in a tepee; more time spent with the reindeer, leading them around and getting to know them a little. It felt like a 'real-life' experience, as what we did is basically Niklas' life with the reindeer. We learnt plenty about Sami life, the animals, etc along the way. Nothing fancy, but a very worthwhile experience.

Do not miss this authentic, wonderful experience - Wow Wow Wow. We have just come back from a 6 day tour of Sweden. And apart from seeing the Aurora Borealis, this was my favourite activity. My husband booked this, and so I didn't really know what to expect. Nicholas picked us up from our hotel in his Sami (native Sweden) costume and took us to his house, where we were given a warm snow suit and books and then taken in a sled on the back of his snow mobile to see his reindeer. After a short trip into the forest - which was just beautiful - we arrived. He has about ten reindeer in total, and when we arrived we fed the reindeer in the large pen, which was lots of fun. As there were 5 people on the trip, we took it in turns to have Brunter - Nicholas's very tame reindeer - take us on a short ride. My husband and I were the last to take the ride, and it was so funny because Brunter had clearly had enough of pulling the sled. He did get going with some cajoling and it was a magical ride. After this, Nicholas started a fire in a small hut, where we all sat and watched him cook the most fabulous lunch of moose and reindeer meat in some bread. We had the opportunity to ask him about his life and the way of the Sami people, and it was fascinating. After this we walked some of the reindeer to a different part of the forest and he explained how he is taming one of his reindeer called Ghost - who was rescued by Nicholas from a friend, who was going to eat him! The whole experience felt very authentic - that we had entered into his life for a few hours. No gimmicks, no commercialisation, just a lovely man sharing his world with us. I cannot highly recommend this activity. Thank you so much Nicholas for an amazing experience. I have such lovely videos of Brunter during our reindeer ride that will entertain me for many years to come. I wish you continued success with your fantastic business and hope that many more people come and experience your world.

Reindeer meet with local Sami guide - The nice and talkative guide Niklas took us by snowmobile to his camp. Standing there among the reindeer and feeding them. Had a lunch of reindeer meat and a trip with the two of us on the reindeer sleigh. Cozy atmosphere, small group of 5 people. Totally top

Unforgettable Sami experience! - Super recommended experience! We did this walk with my family and we all really liked it! Nikklas our guide was very attentive. We took a pass in a reindeer-drawn sleigh, then fed the reindeer and learned about their care, tasted Sami food and tried to lasso to understand how the reindeer were tied. Congratulations to Nikklas!
