Best tour I’ve done in ages. The staff was super helpful, and even though it was FREEZING, everyone was smiling. Saw lights for about an hour, felt magical.

A wonderful experience. I didn't think sledding with reindeer would be so much fun, especially under a sky lit up by the Northern Lights. Feeding them was also exciting. The part that fascinated me most was learning about the Sami culture, which I didn't know much about. Truly beautiful and magical.
