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. Check in inside Prostneset

    Use Best Arctic’s upper-floor check-in, rather than waiting with another operator outside. The listing gives an approximately one-hour bus journey.

  2. Meet the hosts and reindeer

    Spend time with the herd, feed the animals and take the short sled ride when conditions permit. Follow the hosts’ directions; riding the animals themselves is not allowed.

  3. Warm up in the lávvu

    Enjoy soup, bread and hot drinks while listening to stories about Sámi life and reindeer husbandry, then take the return bus to Tromsø.
