Nutti Sámi Siida

The indigenous Sami people of Lapland live in the Arctic Circle and this has been their ancestral homemade for millennia. Between December and April they invite you share their unique way of life, traditions and culture. The packages include driving reindeer, sleeping and eating in Sami tipees and taking a trip with a Sami guide across the tundra.

On the four-day trip you travel by reindeer sledge or dog sled across the white wilderness of this unforgiving land, driving and taking care of the reindeer. You stay in a Sami tipee and one night could include a stay at the famous Ice Hotel in Jukkasjärvi. There are shorter trips, including a half-day tour and reindeer safari.

Summer or winter, this is one of of the most remarkable and memorable trips you will ever take.

Come to the big outdoors

Depending on which time of year you come to Sweden think ‘outdoor activities’. In wintertime, Sweden is a haven for winter sports such as skiing, skating and ice climbing. While in spring and summertime you can enjoy trekking, mountaineering, white-water rafting, canoeing, sailing and many other adrenaline-filled pursuits.

Central and northern Sweden are dotted with winter and year-round resorts where you can enjoy skiing, dog-sledding, snow scooters, white water rafting and hiking, to mention just a few. From trekking in the serene wilderness that is Sarek National Park to pitching camp with the Sami, the indigenous people of Swedish Lapland, Sweden offers unique outdoors activities, landscapes and experiences.

Play golf in Sweden

Sweden has made a name for itself as a golfing nation with the success of golfing legend Annika Sörenstam and leading PGA Tour players Carl Petterson and Henrik Stenson. This is an achievement made more remarkable given Sweden’s long winters, but unsurprising given the quality of Sweden’s golf courses.
