This exclusive, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is only available for guests on our Private Aurora Escapes and allows you to experience the amazing lifestyle of the Sámi people and to get up close and personal with Lapland's most iconic creature – the reindeer. During this exciting adventure you will have an opportunity to feed the reindeer and absorb the magical relationship between the Sámi and their most cherished resource.
During this incredible day with a genuine Sami reindeer herder, you will have a chance to take a short ride on a sleigh pulled behind a reindeer. After your ride, you will learn how to identify different reindeer in the herd based on personal characteristics and behavior. All of this excitement will most certainly make you hungry – your guide will welcome you to step inside one of their cozy huts where you will be served a fresh and delicious meal around an open fire.
