La actividad dura alrededor de 3 horas. La verdad es que te cuentan cosas curiosas sobre los renos y la vida en Lapland. El paseo en trineo es cortito pero chuli😊

Belle activité mais trop rapide, il n'y avait pas vraiment de rennes à part deux au début. Nous avons dû attendre 30min chez Nordic unique travels...
