Great family trip - Great time for a family of 4. Not too strenuous, but went a fair distance. People running it were great. Took photos and shared at no extra cost.

Lovely trip on the water - Had a wonderful time on the water with Olivia. She explained everything really well and patiently helped those who needed some extra instruction on the water. She took the time to talk to everyone along the way, even though we were a larger group. 10/10 would recommend. Elly

Sea Kayaking - This was a fun little activity to do and Olivia was a great instructor. I wouldn’t really recommend for someone new to kayaking because you are going though an active channel and need to be able to stay with the group. My husband and I had a nice time. Would recommend.

Fun adventure in Oslo - Our tour happened on a windy & choppy day, but the guides did a great job making the trip fun, interesting, and safe. They gave us a tutorial on how to row the kayaks, and they were surprisingly easy to maneuver and navigate. It would have been better on a calm day, but kayaking around the harbor was still fun!

Experience Oslo from a kayak! - It was great! Not only the weather, but overall a relaxed, nice and pleasant atmosphere. Felix (coach) showed us the fjord and also took photos, which he shared with us afterwards. We come from Germany and were able to talk well in English ;) It was very beginner friendly and we managed more route than we initially thought (short pier port and then island circumnavigation where everyone else takes the commuter ships). Just nice to see Oslo from the sea and to have done something active. Thanks Felix for the tour!

Kayak beautiful but little info - The views were beautiful. Unfortunately, it is really more kayaking than guided tour. We always felt safe ins. I would have liked so little more info. You could theoretically ask practically rather difficult, except you can always paddle quite fixed near the guide. And the dry bag was unfortunately too old or quality not great. Anyway, my phone is soaking wet and the only one on the ground in the kayak is in the case.
Friendly was our guide and getting in quite great helped.

Terrible customer service - There was one in a slow kayak so a lot of waiting- the leader should have taken a double. This company though has terrible customer service and will rob you if it is after the 24 hr window- even if there was a mistake- do not use this company
