Overview

See Oslo from a unique perspective, while kayaking down the beautiful Akerselva River. You might also find a new side to yourself – your wild side! So join us & embrace your inner “Goat” while kayaking through central Oslo, & out onto the wonderful Oslo Fjord.

Our kayak tour starts in central Oslo at the Nedre Foss Gård Park, which is located beside the famous Mathallen (Food hall). From here we paddle through Grunerløkka, where you will experience an incredible blend of nature and city life - something Oslo is famous for! Continuing our urban kayak adventure we arrive in Grønland - Oslo’s cultural heart! From here we paddle out onto the Oslo Fjord – but first through a 500m long tunnel thats flows underneath the heart of Oslo city!

To end the trip we will paddle out into Oslofjord, past the new Munch Museum & finish beside the Oslo Opera House – an iconic Oslo landmark!

    Thanks Pascal, he was so patience and made sure that I was comfortable during the whole experience. It was my first kayaking but it is such an amazing way to visit Oslo. Thanks again.

    We had the pleasure to be instructed and guided by two people who provided us the other experience under and at Oslo with the tunnel and the seaside view at the end. We can really recommend it. Thanks to Christian and Matthias

    Christian and Mateo were fantastic! It was a scenic paddle down the river and a lovely way to start our afternoon and see a different part Oslo.

    We had an absolutely wonderful time. Christian was our guide (hysterical and informative) and Mathias was our helpful driver/set-up and break-down person. Only recommendation: our group of 12 felt a bit big for one in-water guide mostly due to differing levels of kayaking experience, but this was not a deterrent of our fun. Highly recommend booking this trip on your next Oslo adventure!
