Your journey begins with a scenic drive from Levi to Kautokeino, taking in snow-covered forests, frozen lakes and endless tundra while your guide shares insights about the region.
On arrival, you are welcomed by the Sámi people and step onto a traditional sled pulled by snowmobiles for a ride across the tundra, spotting reindeer roaming freely. You'll experience the ancient practice of reindeer herding up close and learn how the Sámi continue this tradition today.
The group then heads to a Sámi village as it would have looked in ancient times, gathering around a fire inside a traditional lavvu tent. Enjoy a home-cooked meal of local organic food while a Sámi storyteller shares tales of reindeer herding and Sámi tradition.
Next, explore duodji — traditional Sámi handicrafts — and see how intricate designs are made, with the chance to take home a handcrafted keepsake.
The day finishes with a hands-on encounter with tamed reindeer and a lesson in Sámi lassoing, taught by skilled Sámi instructors using a technique passed down for generations.
