Traveler Reviews

Wir waren kurzentschlossen ein paar Tage in Oslo und wollten gerne Sightseeing mit einer sportlichen Aktivität verbinden. Dabei sind wir im Vorfeld auf Oslo Kayak Tours gestoßen und wurden nicht enttäuscht. Noch dazu (unerwartet) deutschsprachig, was die Tour noch etwas vereinfacht hat. Sehr gute Ausstattung und Einweisung - wirklich sehr professionell. Dazu hatten wir Glück mit dem Wetter und konnten so einen entspannten Nachmittag auf dem Fjord genießen. Sehr zu empfehlen.

Bei einer Stadtreise (in Oslo) haben wir durch Zufall von der Tour erfahren - und um es gleich zusagen: Es war die richtige Entscheidung. Am 12. August haben wir mit einer netten Gruppe den Oslofjord erkundet. Ein wunderbarer Blick eröffnet sich vom Wasser aus und aufgrund der fachkundigen Anleitung ist die Tour auch was für Anfänger - nur zu empfehlen! Mit Grüßen an Tanja!

We loved this activity! We got a very warm welcome by Annett, who is a fun guide and put us at ease as relative beginners. She started with a succint explanation on how to use the kayak (and how to get in without immediately falling in the water :p ). There was a nice balance between fun facts and small talk, and quietly enjoying the beautiful nature around us. We definitely recommend this kayak tour! A great way to discover the Oslo Fyord's in an original way.

Fabulous guided tour on Oslo Fjord! Very professional and interesting guidance, stable kayaks, good equipment and beautiful sights! Oslo is probably the most impressive Capital in Europe seen from Sea. Highly recommendable.

We had the most fantastic kayaktour with Oslo Kayaktours celebrating a 60 years old friend, who had never been in a kayak before, neither had the two others. I have paddled for a few years. They were very nervous before they entered the kayaks because it was a windy evening. We were taken sooo good care of, and could choose between single kayak or double. The instructor, Annett, gave us such a good instruction before we entered the kayaks, and was close to us all the time, so we felt safe and secure! We had booked a tour including evening food and that was superb! We entered a beach and went up to a little ”mountaintop” with a nice view of the Oslofjord. Everyone was extremely happy about the service, the equipment and the kayakinstructor. We highly recommend Oslo Kayaktours!
