About this experience

The Sami Reindeer Migration is an incredible natural phenomenon that takes place in Norway.

Every year, thousands of reindeer migrate from the mountains of Norway to the coast, a journey of more than 1000 kilometres.

The Sami people, who have herded reindeer for centuries, accompany the herd on their journey.

This is a unique opportunity to witness a traditional way of life and to experience the beauty of the Norwegian landscape.

The Sami people will also share their knowledge and culture with you, and you can learn about the importance of reindeer herding to their culture.

The Sami Reindeer Migration is an unforgettable experience that will stay with you for a lifetime.
