Reindeer – “boazu” in Sámi” or “poro” in Finnish – is the core of Sámi people’s livelihood. During the safaris, we ride with reindeer to the fjälls and forests. We show you how pure and clean air and water can be, how the sound of wind makes you think what’s important for you, and what you want to dedicate your time to.We ride with reindeer to the fjälls and sleep under the stars.

Land of nature, tradition and future
Lapland truly has seasons. In the winter, you may feel the snow crunch beneath your boots and see how the pure soft show sparkles under the pale winter sun. In the summer, the midnight sun is everywhere, painting the endless summer sky in shades of gold. When nights are cold, you may see the northern lights – rippling green, violet, and pink – dance across the Arctic sky.
Midnight sun is not just for one night. In the northernmost Lapland, the sun stays above the horizon for two months from mid-May to mid-July. During “kaamos”, the mid-winter months of December and January, a mysterious period of dark and dusk, we won’t see the sun for eight weeks.
All this you can find in Northern Lapland – a land of silence, magic, and wonder, where nature, tradition and future intertwine.
