Finland · REINDEER FARM & SLEIGH EXPERIENCES

“Absolutely loved the farm experience. It exceeded our expectations. The family annd staff were wonderful. It made us feel good knowing our experience directly helped raise funds for the family farmers rather. Our driver and guide, Elena was exceptional and gave us guidance on the local area which we really appreciated. If you’re looking for an authentic experience, I highly recommend booking this one. Booking was called - Rovaniemi: Authentic Reindeer Farm Visit & Short Sleigh Ride.”
Rovaniemi reindeer sleigh ride in the frozen forest, then warm up in a kota with hot berry drink and cookies, with pickup.
“The farm is very well looked after and you can tell the reindeer are too. We wanted to go somewhere to do this activity that we knew would be authentic whilst also knowing that the reindeer have a healthy environment to live/work in. The farm has been in the family for about 400 years! The walk its self was magical and the guide thoroughly explained how the reindeer live and work and what they do when it’s not working season. We then got to feed and pat one of their friendliest reindeer and called it a day. Over all great experience!”

“This was great!!There isnt a lot of time with reindeer but we got more than most tours.We got to watch them 15 mins wild while they give a talk,then go a short reindeer ride (minutes), then a 30 mins inside talk then most people got to pet 2 reindeer for a few mins.We got to move around extra while waiting for the ride (there were other groups there)& got posed photos on the frozen ice.It was so so cold watching so the wild reindeer was long enough & a longer ride would have been cold(it was -35!)but I could see people being disappointed that it was short. After everyone left…”
1.5-hour Lapland reindeer farm visit near Rovaniemi with feeding, local guide talk, and a short sleigh ride for $140.
“Activité très moyenne. La ferme se trouve juste à la sortie de Rovaniemi et ouverte à tous, le transport proposé par l'agence est très cher alors que l'on peut le faire seul ou en taxi. Nous avons calculé, nous étions 4 et nous aurions economisé plus d'un quart du prix en faisant comme cela. Le temps à la ferme est très court. Il y a deux rennes attachés dans la cour que l'on peut carresser en attendant notre tour à la balade. La balade est sympathique et c'est toujours une bonne expérience. Mais cela ne vaut clairement pas le prix payé. Petite collation et explications générales de l'éleveur à la…”
