We booked a 10km reindeer ride directly with Levin Lapinkyla via email, for 2 people. We were very lucky to end up having a private trip as some other people who were supposed to be taking part never turned up. We travelled for about an hour, just us in one sledge, plus the guide in another sledge and his dog running along side, before stopping to roast sausages over a fire in a hut, drink coffee and eat doughnuts, followed by a return journey of about an hour. The whole trip was very calm and relaxing, and passed through beautiful scenery. The dog that came along was very entertaining! The guide was lovely, quite quiet but very friendly. We would highly recommend doing a reindeer trip with Levin Lapinkyla, it felt very personal and unlike a lot of the large tour group trips.
Thanks a lot for this comment and lovely message. Hope you come back soon and show you more about Lapland and Sami culture! Kiitos paljon!
We booked our Reindeer Safari with Thomson. I asked the rep why Thomson was more expensive than other companies over there. She explained that the Reindeer ride was about an hour with them and with the other company much less. We decided to book with Thomson. How wrong was I. Our Reindeer ride was only 20 minutes. We were split into two groups. Our group was left to play with a sledge until it was our time for the ride.
To play with a sledge to make up time I don't need to pay that much. I paid for 4 adults, each 127 Euros. A waste of money.
If anyone goes to Levi, book your adventures through the tourist centre. It saves you a lot of money.
Sorry for the late comment but we never worked with Thomson company. I think you mean another reindeer farm near from us but we hope see you in Lapinkylä and show you this wonderful nature with our reindeers!
We saw few reindeers but did not get ride since it was fully booked. Service was unfriendly: service person ignored us and continued chatting with her friend rather than asking our needs.
We are really sorry to read that and comment late... Also we did fire this person you describe in the comment and we have much better attention for the costumer service. Also we always recommend to everybody to reserve with time to can get a ride with us. Sorry again and thanks for the comment that help us to change our mistakes!
We rented 2 snowmobiles and a trailer for kids to go there from Levi, was easy to find with the help of the map. We did the 5 km ride, Was nice to do something diferent but the reinders ride to slow and the temperature was around - 26ºC, so it was frooozen! but nice experience. The guide was not very kind but ok. we enjoyed at the end a hot chocolate and dounuts in the main buiding.
Sorry for the late comment. Also we want to see you back again and show our changes in our personal and better treatment to the costumers. See you soon! Thanks for the comment.
