You will be picked up outside Radisson Blu Hotel in Tromsø - look out for your guide wearing a blue Luhkka (poncho). From there we will have 45-minute bus ride to Breivikeidet.
On the way to our reindeer enclousure you will see mountains, fjords, untouched nature, and all this before you arrive at your destination.
