Saemien Sijte - South Sami museum — Attraction in Snåsa

Just an overall great experience! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about his heritage and provided excellent information about Sami culture. I truly learned a lot and was fascinated by the rock carvings exhibit they were having the time I visited. You get to see a 10 minute video about the seasons and the relationship between Sami herders and their reindeer. There is also an outdoor experience where you get to feel and see how Sami people live and catch reindeer. It was a very personable experience because our guide had so much patience in answering all of our questions and shared a lot about his heritage; I learned so much!There is a nice gift shop as well. Definitely family friendly. The museum is looking to expand in the future and display more of the ancient archeological artifacts they posses from excavations etc. So I look forward to visiting again...

The location of the museum is very beautiful and the museum building appears very new. The museum is not very large but has very informative and interactive exhibits. And the cafe was a delicious surprise, with a small selection of smoked Reindeer dishes. There is also a small souvenir store with Sami designed items. On a Thursday afternoon it was very quiet. Worthy detour to learn about...

Fascinating exhibition about south same culture and their struggle to maintain identity. Small but really well done with lots of details. No guided Tour since visit was out of main season. Definitly a MUST on the trip down the E6. Little Museum shop a nice Restaurant serving best...
