Reindeer Sledding in the Skibotn valley - evening tour with the Samiway
Discover the rich heritage of the indigenous Sámi people with our reindeer experience. Journey into the Arctic wilderness and engage with traditional sami reindeer herders. Interact with our gentle reindeer, enjoy a tranquil sleigh ride through snowy landscapes and hear fascinating stories from experienced Sámi herders.
After the visit at the Samicamp you will be transported to Skibotn Hotel, where you will enjoy a warm meal in their sami restaurant before heading back to Tromsø.
Skibotn is known for its dry climate, and this gives you good chances to see the northern lights.
