Discover the richness of Sami culture while interacting with reindeer in the enchanting village of Jukkasjärvi. Experience an authentic Sami adventure amid stunning Arctic landscapes on this self-guided excursion.

Engage with the Sami and Reindeer in Jukkasjärvi

At the scheduled time, a driver will greet you at your hotel for a journey to the charming Jukkasjärvi, where you can delve into the vibrant traditions of the Sami, an indigenous community from various regions in northern Scandinavia.

Nutti Sámi Siida serves as an open-air exhibition, allowing you to explore the history, cultural practices, and profound bond the Sami share with nature, all set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Swedish Arctic.

Upon arrival, you will have the freedom to wander through the open-air museum. Here, you can discover traditional Sami structures and craftsmanship. A key highlight of your visit will be the chance to have a close encounter with the iconic reindeer of Lapland. Step into a traditional pen, and if you choose, you can buy Arctic moss to feed these majestic animals—a quintessential winter experience!

After all that excitement, you’ll likely feel hungry! Enjoy a visit to Café Sápmi, a delightful café nestled in a warm wooden teepee, run by the local Sami community. This is the perfect spot to grab a warm drink or a sandwich, and to indulge in a classic Swedish Fika.

At the end of the 7-hour adventure, you will return to your original meeting point, where you'll be dropped off at your hotel.
