Kayaking im Lysefjord Wir waren im August als absolute Anfänger bei Nordic Paddling. DIe Einführung in das Thema war sehr professionell. Das Material war sehr gut. Unser Guide Dan war sehr gut und konnte die Kenntnisse sehr gut vermitteln. Zum ersten Mal ein Padel in der Hand und dann ab in den großen Lysefjord. Das war schon toll. Werden sicher beim nächsten Besuch wieder eine Tour einplanen

Highlight of our trip! Kayaking the fjord with Nordic Paddling was the best part of our Norway trip. The location was easy to get to with their directions. They provide all the gear, but you should definitely bring a big water bottle, and maybe change of clothes (I stayed dry but my husband got soaked, it seems this was the case for other people too and I don’t know why). Dan was an awesome guide. He was calm and funny and made everyone in the tour group feel included. He gave really good instruction and even though we weren’t super experienced with kayaking (there was someone else on the tour who had never kayaked before too), it was pretty easy to get used to, especially since the kayaks were comfortable. The weather was thankfully amazing - sunny, beautiful, calm. Everyone was allowed to go at their own pace and Dan gave good information on some of the things we were passing and seeing. He was very easy to talk to and friendly. And of course, the views were stunning and so serene. If we were staying longer we probably would have come and kayaked again with Nordic Paddling. Worth every single penny spent!

WOW - Unforgettable experience with Nordic Paddling Just returned from an epic trip with Nordic Paddling and our amazing guide Sebastian. During our 6 day trip we wild camped and kayaked from Forsand to Lysebotn along the beautiful length of the fjord. Sebastian was extremely knowledgable and patient - he took the time with each of our kayaks individually so that our techniques improved immensely over the week. All of the tips and tricks really helped with the longer stretches. Sebastian was super adaptable and able to tailor the trip to the group and weather conditions. We also had the chance to fish, forage and cook on the campfire, swim and spot seals along the way. A huge thank you for pushing me out of my comfort zone and introducing me to this stunning location. An experience I will never forget!!

Incredible 6-day trip, run by first class professionals - HIGHLY recommended We had an incredible time on our 6-day expedition with Sebastian. His exceptional skill, hard work, patience and good-humour meant that we had an amazing trip, that I’m sure we will always remember. I would describe it as a ‘once in a lifetime’ experience, but I really hope to do another trip with these guys. I’d love them to expand into new regions.

Wonderful trip We really enjoyed our 4 hour trip in a double kayak. Thanks to Dan, our fantastic guide for his advices, his historical stories, his French (better than our Norwegian 🤣) and his humor. We already practice kayaking in fresh water and this first experience at sea was magical. We highly recommend this adventure at 200% ❤🤩

We had a great guided kayaking tour in Lysefjord! Our guide Dan made the trip very fun and informative! He even sent us photos from the trip that he had taken for us with his waterproof camera! We learned about the fjord, experienced some outstanding scenery, and got some good exercise! It was the best part of our trip to Norway! I liked how they provided us with all of the right gear and a place for us to leave our dry clothes.

Kayaking and hiking around the Lysefjord Amazing experience kayaking and hiking around the Lysefjord. Our guide Sebastian made us all feel very welcome and comfortable and was very friendly. The trip is a good balance between being a holiday but also being a challenge which is what you want I think because it is an immersive experience. I really recommend it as a trip and the food at camp is amazing!!

Beautiful experience Door een fjord varen, geeft een waanzinnig gevoel. In die kleine rode kano met die rotsen om je heen. Leuke kleine groep medekanoërs. Ik ging alleen, maar had geluk om met hen te zijn. De gids was fijn. Betrokken, groot hart voor de omgeving.

What to pack for Kayak Trip in Norway

The kayak is the perfect watercraft for multi-day trips in Norwegian nature. Kayaks are quite sea-worthy, doesn’t make a sound, doesn’t pollute, can haul loads of equipment and is easily paddled but challenging to master. And best of all, you’re always the captain of your boat!
