• Day 2: Reindeer Safari & Samiland

    February 6, 2024 in Finland ⋅ ☁️ -16 °C

    Early start to do the Reindeer Safari. We basically sat together in the reindeer sleigh and our reindeer was attached to the sleigh in front, which was lead by a guide on foot. So it was not fast, but great to see and to interact with the animals.
    After the tour we ate salmon or tomato soup and learned more about the reindeers and the work of the reindeer herders. Then feeding moss to the reindeers was another highlight. Later we took the cable car onto Levi mountain to visit the Samiland Exhibition. It was very interesting to learn about the indigenous people of Lappland. The sunset from our vantagepoint on the mountain was incredible - but still no polar lights 😕
