A fantastic experience of the Finnish archipelago by kayaking - Our family of five novice kayakers had a fantastic time. The kayaks are stable and easy to learn with, and the equipment is top notch. Our guide, Jiri, handled the group in a friendly and calm way, and gave an excellent introduction not just to kayaking but also on how to behave in a sustainable manner in and around nature. This is a very important part of the tour which gives you an opportunity to interact in a sustainable way with the stunning Finnish archipelago, including a stopover on one of the small islands. We were also extremely lucky with the weather. Many thanks for an unforgettable experience!

Helsinki by kayak - Amazing!! We did moms and older boys and it was so great - we weee all beginners and it was not too hard, felt safe and just had the very best day touring Helsinki by kayak!! Our tour operator was fantastic - knowledgeable, fun, spoke great English, we learned a lot from him and he explained all the equipment and ways of the water so perfectly!! Provided us with a water and a great sandwich for a snake break. I couldn’t recommend this tour more!! Fantastic 10 star day - book this tour, you won’t regret it!! Will be a highlight of our time in Helsinki!!

Amazing experience with Tiina - I had the best trip! 100% recommend. Tiina was the best guide, she made me feel super comfortable as a beginner and explained everything to me really well. I ended up being the only one on the kayak tour, everyone else cancelled because of the wind but I felt really safe and the route was modified to take into account the weather and I still saw a lot. I will now feel more confident to do kayaking again on future trips :)
