Luxury Swedish Lapland Tours made for you
Discover the wonders of Swedish Lapland with our private, tailor-made tours
The land of reindeer, Sami culture and the northern lights
Reindeer stand proud beneath snow-heavy trees, the night skies dance with iridescent shades of green and purple, and locals and visitors alike share stories over fika, the traditional Swedish coffee and pastry.
Swedish Lapland, or Sápmi as it is known by the people who live there, is a magical place filled with natural wonder, folklore and a rich cultural heritage. As Swedish, Finnish and Norwegian settlers arrived, communities like the Sami held onto their cultural identity. Many who followed the ways of shamanism as a religious way of life, converted to Lutheranism during the 18th and 19th centuries.
One of Sweden’s largest nature reserves, Vindelfjällen Nature Reserve, can be found in Swedish Lapland. The reserve is largely made up of mountains, valleys and waterways. It is believed that the area was populated by the ancestors of today’s Sami from about 9000 years ago. The reserve is popular with hikers in both summer and winter, with one of the most well-known routes being the Kungsleden trail. Visitors to the area can learn about Sami reindeer herding, hunting and fishing.

A word from one of our experts
Sweden’s Sápmi region offers something far more profound than the typical Arctic wonderland. Here, a world awaits where reindeer herders, the Sami people, share their rich, enduring way of life. They say, 'Not all classrooms have four walls,' and there’s no better lesson than immersing ourselves in such a rare and transformative setting.
