No prior kayaking experience is needed for our tours. Our city and archipelago kayak trips are beginner-friendly, and our guides will provide all the necessary instructions before you set off. For those with experience, we also offer single kayaks upon request. Safety is a priority, and our tandem kayaks offer extra stability, especially for beginners.
Most of our tours are suitable for all fitness levels. The pace is relaxed, and we take plenty of breaks to enjoy the scenery. If you’re concerned about the physical demands, feel free to contact us for advice on which tour might suit you best. Our longer multi-day trips require a moderate level of fitness, but you don't have to be an athlete to enjoy the experience either.
Yes, children aged 12 and above are welcome on our kayak tours, making them a great family-friendly activity. For winter kayaking, participants must be at least 16 years old for safety reasons related to dry suit sizing. For families with younger children, private tours can be arranged with lower age limitations.
Sporty clothing that can get wet will help you enjoy the adventure comfortably, and it’s always a good idea to bring a change of clothes, just in case! A waterproof jacket, a hat for sun protection, and sunscreen are key essentials. And don’t forget your drinking water bottle to stay hydrated. What you need to bring may vary depending on the season (especially for winter kayaking), so check the specific activity page for more details to make the most of your trip.
Your safety is our top priority. All our tours begin with thorough safety briefings and easy-to-follow instructions, ensuring you feel comfortable and confident on the water. Our stable tandem kayaks make tipping over extremely unlikely, especially for beginners. For those who prefer single kayaks, we recommend prior experience. Our experienced guides are always there to support you, providing safety guidance while also sharing insights.
In the rare event that someone takes an unexpected dip, rest assured our guides are seasoned kayak rescue pros! Think of them as your personal lifeguards on standby—ready to have you back in your kayak in no time.
