Family farm and incredible hospitality
We came to the farm with Nordic Adventures. We met Marie, the extremely kind owner, passionate about her job. We were able to take a sleigh ride in the middle of the snowy forest, then we went to see the reindeer and feed them to approach them from meadows. Marie answered all our questions over a hot drink and cookies. We spent 1h30 at the farm. We were very lucky because there were only 3 of us due to the sanitary situation. Go and visit this superb authentic farm. Merci and Merry Christmas!

Fun, interesting and unforgettable!
Off the beaten path and far less touristy than similar places at or closer to the Santa Claus' Village, and definitely worth your time and money! The guide was funny and an obviously authentic Laplander, the farm was beatiful and tranquil, and the tour was as informative as it was unforgettable. We got to feed and pet reindeers as well as take them a on brief sled-ride entirely without guides (the reindeer are "automatic", as the guide put it). Our visit and tour lasted for a full hour, and at 35 euros per person the price was very reasonable for the experience. Definitely one of the best short activities you can do at the Arctic Circle!

Book directly, not through the countless tour agencies
We had a rental car, so instead of booking a reindeer tour, we booked a 3 km reindeer tour through their own websites. Saved us a lot of money. The farm is roughly 7 km outside Rovaniemi and easy to find. Escpecially with the GPS coordinates you are given in the confirmation email. You are greeted and have the opportunity to feed the reindeer some moss. Afterwards, you get into your sled (pulled by one reindeer) and take a 3 km trip through the forest. Very peacful and beautiful. Afterwards you're offered some cookies and a hot drink. The kids can sled off a hill outside before returning home.
