Fantastic day on the water. Tricia was a lovely guide and instructor and really helped me up my kayak game. She was personable and fun and tried to meet us all where we were. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Beautiful trip, good instructor. Swimming shorts recommended and do not forget water and sun blocker.

We loved this experience. It was so wonderful to get out on the water in Oslo. We are both experienced kayakers but this would have been easy for beginners as well. It was an easy pace, with lots of time to enjoy the scenery. The only reason that I did not give this 5 stars is that our host did not pay attention to our Viator booking and it sounded like we would not have been able to participate if there had been more people there, despite having booked many months in advance. It would have been very disappointing to have travelled that far to be told we couldn’t go out. I had to prove that I had booked by sending copies of my booking to her. Otherwise, once it was determined that we would be allowed to participate, we enjoyed the experience immensely.

We thoroughly enjoyed our kayak outing with Sven! The tour was very well organized and Sven was a great guide. He shared great information about the sites we passed a some Oslo history - just enough. Sven easily adapted the tour to the participants and was patient with us - we all had experience but were a little rusty. Thank you so much for a great outing!

A wonderful experience on the Oslo fjord. Our guide was Trisha, who was friendly, engaging and knowledgeable. There were only 3 of us ( plus her) so a very personalized experience. She took special care to make sure we were comfortable , the gear fit well and our kayak pedals were correct. I appreciated the spray skirt and water shoes so we could endeavor to stay dry. She chose our route based on the winds in the moment and took a ton of pictures that she shared with us. We saw swans and baby ducklings/geese and beautiful rock formations. We were lucky enough to have great weather without much wind. Would definitely recommend this tour!

A kayak tour in a truly unforgettable location—what an amazing experience! It was quite the workout, so make sure to fuel up beforehand. It’s good to know how to swim, just in case, but if you do fall in, it’s easy to get back on the kayak. Plus, if you’re in a group, the guide and others are always there to help. I also discovered that kayaking really works your whole body! If you want to glide through the water, you’ve got to engage your core 😄. Thanks for the pictures.

Sven was an excellent guide. Judging the skills of our group and taking us on a route that was fun and beautiful. He shared lots of information about the birds, boats, buildings and history of the area as we paddled out into the Fjord.

We had a great day out on the water. Annette was a very kind and knowledgeable guide and made it an enjoyable and safe experience. All the gear that you need is provided but definitely bring a change of clothes as we got soaked just from the ocean waves. Would definitely recommend this tour!
