Until approximately 1500, the waterside village of Burfjord was inhabited solely by members of the Sami people – the indigenous people of northern Scandinavia, and the northernmost indigenous people on the planet. During your visit, you can discover how they have remained true to their heritage whilst adapting to the conditions of modern life. Your hosts will introduce you to their reindeer, serve a traditional lunch in a lavvo conical tent, and – if you are fortunate – they may feel inspired to perform their ancient joik, one of the oldest living song traditions anywhere in the world.
