Helpful tips for your Tromso reindeer feeding tour

  • Approach calmly: Reindeer are gentle but can be startled. Let them come to you, follow the guide’s instructions, and avoid sudden movements. This ensures a safe and ethical reindeer feeding experience in Tromso.
  • Feed responsibly: Use only the provided food when feeding reindeer. Overfeeding or giving personal snacks can harm them and disturb the animals’ routine.
  • Dress for Arctic conditions: Layers are essential. Thermal base layers, insulated jackets, hats, and gloves help you stay comfortable while feeding reindeer or waiting outdoors for the Northern Lights.
  • Footwear for snow and ice: Wear waterproof boots with grip. Snow-covered paths can be slippery, especially near feeding areas or sledding tracks.
  • Optional reindeer sledding: Listen carefully to the guide for safety and instructions. The ride is smooth, but knowing how to balance and handle the sled ensures the best experience.
  • Family guidance: Children enjoy interacting with reindeer, but must be supervised at all times. Teach them to be gentle and patient while feeding the animals.
