What to expect

A closer look at this tour.

Choose the evening version for a camp dinner and winter atmosphere after dark. The experience centres on the reindeer and Sámi hospitality. It is a fixed camp visit, rather than a dedicated aurora chase that travels to find clearer skies.

Pick this for a full dinner and camp atmosphere. *The 15–20-minute ride estimate comes from the matching operator experience on Visit Tromsø; reconfirm the option at booking.

Meeting your group

Prostneset bus terminal, Samuel Arnesens gate 5. The listing gives 17:40 check-in for an 18:00 departure. Find the Tromsø Arctic Reindeer team on the bus side of the terminal.

Before you book

Arrange dietary needs and child seats in advance. Ask about access across snowy ground and getting into the sled if mobility is a concern.

What to bring

Warm layers, insulated boots, hat and mittens for time outdoors after dark.

Price and cancellation

Check the current USD price for your date and selected option on GetYourGuide. The listing advertises free cancellation up to 24 hours in advance; verify the conditions attached to your option. Snow-related changes are a separate question.

Not included or not confirmed

Northern lights cannot be guaranteed. Baby seats are not promised; the listing says only a few booster seats are available.

The rhythm of the visit

A day with the reindeer.

A guide to the experience, not a fixed timetable. Your hosts may change the order and ride duration with conditions.

  1. An evening departure

    Meet the team at Prostneset before the bus leaves. Leave space in your itinerary for the whole 4.5-hour outing rather than scheduling another activity immediately afterwards.

  2. Reindeer in the dark

    Spend time with the herd and take the sled ride when snow permits. Darkness changes the photographic experience; follow your hosts’ directions around the animals.

  3. Dinner and the night sky

    Enjoy dinner, stories and joik, with a chance to look for the northern lights if conditions allow. The evening then ends with return transport to the city.
