If you've always wanted to see a reindeer from up close, this incredible reindeer farm visit and sleigh ride in Rovaniemi is perfect for you!

There, you'll meet your expert instructor, who will distribute warm winter clothing and give you some time to put it on. Then, you'll set off on a scenic drive to the reindeer farm, where your activity will take place, while your expert instructor explains how the day will go and what to do to stay safe throughout the experience.
Once you arrive, you will head straight to the 400-meter reindeer sleigh ride that will be the perfect, fun, and unforgettable introduction to your reindeer experience near Rovaniemi.
