Oslo Sea Kayak Tour: Explore The Incredible Oslofjord

About this activity

Our Oslo Fjord Kayak Tour starts and ends in central Oslo, making it very easy and fast to get to the start point, and to get back to your residence afterwards.

Our kayak tour is suitable for kids from 4 years and above. It is beginner friendly and we have stable kayaks to make you feel comfortable and safe. Our guides are both fun and proffessional and will keep you safe and happy on the water.

On the tour you will see all of Oslos waterfront highlights as well as paddling out to Oslos closest island which adds a nature element to the experience. You will get to see the Oslo waterfront from the seat of a kayak - which is in our opinion the best way to view the city. The tour is a unique mix of urban exploration, nature sightseeing and fun - and you will even learn some kayaking techniques from our guides that you can take with you on your next kayaking adventure. Mad Goats has been guiding kayak tours in Oslo for over 11 years now, taking 1000s of people out exploring Oslofjord!
