    Seeing reindeer in their natural element on a working farm

    Just an incredible tour with Juho on his family's reindeer farm with nonstop highlights all morning - feeding the reindeer, watching Juho's father interact with the herd, enjoying homemade pancakes and berry jams made by Juho's mother Liisa, and getting to walk the adorable Noppe in the forest. Loved that White Winter Lapland is a working, non-touristy farm that lets their reindeer live as they wish without forcing them to do anything (even the walk), and that the family works the farm themselves and were happy to share nuggets on reindeer herding and life in Lapland with us. Would love to visit again some day!

    An Incredible experience , we loved this beautiful authentic farm surrounded by nature 💕I

    From start to finish this was by far the best experience we had in Finland. This is our second trip to Finland this year & we have fallen in love with this beautiful reindeer farm. We were welcomed like family by Juhos wonderful parents , the farm is so personal, peaceful & a very special place to be in nature with these amazing animals that steal your heart. They definitely calm your mind & have such gentle souls . They are so well cared for and the family are so passionate about their work. We learned so much about the reindeer here and our son got to walk a lovely reindeer through beautiful scenery , the highlight of his holiday. After this we went to relax in a beautiful wooden cabin where we were invited to have some homemade pancakes with very tasty cloudberry Jam & hot blueberry juice . If you go to Lapland, this is one experience that you have to do , this is for everyone young or old. The only thing we didn’t like was leaving but we will definitely return. Thanks so much for a wonderful day where we made unforgettable memories , Johanne , Kevin & Ben 💕💕 🇮🇪

    The highlight of our trip

    This was the highlight of our trip to Rovaniemi!! A family run business and we were made to feel a part of their family. The host was very easy company, knowledgeable and cares about his animals. The hosts mum cooked us homemade pancakes, jam and juice. She was so welcoming and warm and easy to talk to. The reindeer were cared for well and absolutely gorgeous. We will aim to return again, if we can.

    Hands down the best...

    Hands down the best reindeer experience we could have asked for. It was just my friend and I! Juho's family owns the reindeer farm, and they it was all hand built. His mother Liisa picked us up. She was instantly warm and welcoming and we got to know the history of the family farm and reindeer in Finland on the car ride over, fed the reindeer and she made us some pancakes and her home made jams and pancakes by a fire. We had a lovely walk through the forest with the reindeer after. It was an absolute pleasure spending the day at Winter Lapland and we highly recommend it! It is the perfect representation of a beautiful reindeer farm lifestyle and his entire family made us feel very at home.

    Such a special experience

    We had an amazing time at White Winter farm. We got to meet and feed so many beautiful reindeer. We were given lots of information about them, and the farm. We were then invited to sit in their kota, and spend time with the whole family. We were treated to delicious homemade pancakes, jam and juice. The highlight for me, was taking one of the young reindeer out for a walk through the fields. What a special experience! The family were all so warm and welcoming, and were already inviting us back again. Highly recommend this activity for a taste of true local life! Until next time... Kiitos! 😊

    ROVANIEMI: Reindeer Farm Visit and Walking: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rovaniemi.

    How much does ROVANIEMI: Reindeer Farm Visit and Walking cost?

    +

    Prices start at $117 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rovaniemi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does ROVANIEMI: Reindeer Farm Visit and Walking take?

    +

    Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rovaniemi is not rushed.

    Is ROVANIEMI: Reindeer Farm Visit and Walking worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 79 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 43 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rovaniemi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule ROVANIEMI: Reindeer Farm Visit and Walking?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is ROVANIEMI: Reindeer Farm Visit and Walking suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book ROVANIEMI: Reindeer Farm Visit and Walking?

    +

    Around 15 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rovaniemi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rovaniemi and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does ROVANIEMI: Reindeer Farm Visit and Walking start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rovaniemi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Rovaniemi?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Rovaniemi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Northern Lights Rovaniemi: Guaranteed Viewing & Unlimited Mileage, Rovaniemi: Korouoma Canyon & Frozen Waterfalls Tour with BBQ, Rovaniemi:%100 Guaranteed Northern Lights Hunt&Free Photos. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Rovaniemi?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Rovaniemi?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
