Lapland · REINDEER FARM VISITS
Reindeer are not huskies: this is a walking-pace sleigh, a working herder and a coffee by the fire, and it is the one animal day that suits small children. The 15 below cover short farm visits, longer sleigh rides and the combinations that add a husky kennel on the same trip.

“It was just ok. No reindeer rides because it is too early in the season, and I think this was common knowledge. I wish the advertising had been more accurate. The huskies were the highlight.
