Authentic Reindeer Farm and Canoe Experience from Rovaniemi (Small Group)

Your guide will drive you in a very small group (never more than 8 people) to one of the most traditional reindeer farms in Lapland located outside of Rovaniemi on the shores of a peaceful lake. As you will be taken in the surroundings, the herders will teach you about the reindeer, will show you their farm and you will be given a chance to feed the reindeers their favourite food, lichen! The visit will end with a very friendly time around the fire in the company of a herder who will answer all your questions and share their passion with you.

After this great time with the reindeer, you will be introduced to the canoes. Your qualified guide will provide you with all the safety instructions needed: how to use the paddles, how to move on water and steer your canoe, how to react if capsizing, etc. Your guide will always keep an eye on you, and will come to your aid if you are in need of help.

While paddling, you will feel the peacefulness of the nature surrounding you, and will fully enjoy the beauty of this place. At the end of this combination activity, you will for sure feel satisfied : you will have learnt about traditional reindeer farming and how to handle a canoe!
