Difference between packrafts and kayaks:
Choose between a packraft or kayak - packrafts are more stable and your child can go together with you if they are under 10. If you are wanting the most stable watercraft, then we recommend you choose a packraft - no need to book one in advance, just ask our guides at the start of the trip and we will help you. Kayaks are more sporty, but stull suitable for absolute beginners. Kayaks are slightly less stable but faster. If you are unsure what to use, then just ask our friendly guides and they will assist you.Transport:
We transport everything for you from the start point to the end point meaning that you do not have to bring luggage with you in the kayak / packraft. Our driver will take good care of your belongings and make sure they are returned to you in Bjørvika where the trip ends.About our Akerselva Tour:
Akerselva is a river rich in history and culture making this one of the most experience-rich activities in Oslo! This packrafting and kayaking tour is suitable for kids from 4 years and above, most fitness levels and requires not prior paddling experience to join!To end the trip we will paddle out into Oslo Fjord, next to the new Munch Museum and finish right beside the Oslo Opera House. Once we end the trip you are located very central, close to public toilets, the Oslo central station and will not be far from your hotel if you are staying in Oslo city.
Please feel free to ask our friendly guides for advice and help getting to your next destination if you need - jump on this tour and explore Oslo in a healthy and fun way, paddling from the river to the sea!
