Great experience with Reindeer and learning about Sami culture - I had a wonderful time on this tour. I got to feed a baby reindeer and adult reindeer, learn a lot about Sami culture, try homemade bread with local berries, reindeer meat, and local sweets and drinks, and go inside a traditional Sami housing structure. I would highly recommend going on this tour. The views of the nature nearby were also stunning!

Best Tromso tour! - Our guide, Andreas, a native of Tromso, was a fantastic tour guide: friendly, accommodating, and very knowledgeable. His concern for everyone’s preferences made it feel like a private tour. Even though we knew seeing reindeer was not a guarantee in the summer, Andreas found an opportunity to see a bunch of them up close. This started the trip off on the best foot for us, especially our kids! On our route, we saw the most beautiful sights, including Sommeroy, and lots of waterfalls. We were able to get beautiful pics and Andreas also took some great photos. This trip will be our best memory of Tromso for sure.

Exceptional Tour and Experience - This experience was awesome. The guides were very knowledgeable and interesting. The reindeer are gentle and we fed them several different types of feed and were able to interact with them for a good amount of time. The Sami culture discussion was ever interesting. We tried traditional foods including brown cheese and reindeer jerky. Overall I highly recommend this experience.

Authenticly Stupid and Lazy - Avoid booking with them or you will regret. I had booked a Sami Cultural Experience with them a few weeks in advance and this was supposed to be the highlight of my trip to Norway and guess what? On the the day of the tour nobody showed up and when I called them, it turned out that they had cancelled the activity without even notifying. Their behavior is not acceptable and they should be out of business as they have no respect for their clients.
