Rovaniemi: Reindeer Farm Visit at an Authentic 200-Year-Old Farm

The Reindeer Experience isn’t only a winter highlight — in summer and autumn, you’ll discover the same authentic culture at a genuine, family-run reindeer farm that has practiced reindeer herding for over 200 years. Without the snow and sleds, this tour focuses on what makes Lapland unique: the reindeer, the herders, and their centuries-old traditions.

Your tour begins with pickup in a brand-new 2025 luxury 4×4 van. After a comfortable drive, you’ll arrive at the authentic 200-year-old reindeer farm. Here, you’ll be welcomed by herders and introduced to their reindeer herd.

Spend your time feeding the reindeer, learning about their care, and listening to stories of herding traditions that have shaped Lapland for centuries. In summer and autumn, without sleds or snow, the focus is on culture and connection — a rare opportunity to understand reindeer life beyond the tourist season.

After your visit, you’ll return to Rovaniemi with a deeper appreciation for Lapland’s most iconic animal and the heritage that continues to this day.
