We've done similar guided kayaking tours but this was one of the best. Tiina, our guide, was engaging, knowledgeable and made everyone feel included despite the differences in kayaking experience in the group. Her safety and paddling technique briefing at the start was excellent. Although we had kayaked before this tour is suitable for beginners as well as those with some experience. Our group managed to kayak quite a distance, despite the fact that there was some wind. And Tiina was considerate enough about the weather conditions on the day, that we used an alternative, sheltered start point.
We appreciated the water and snack given by the tour as our trip ran over lunchtime.
We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience.
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!!
Wonderful kayak tour. Really beautiful scenery. Easy paddling and a great day out. The guide was very professional. 5 star expeience
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 :)
Michele and I took leave of our ocean cruise to kayak the Finnish Archipelago. Of all our experiences while visiting 10 countries during 20 days abroad, this was a Top 3 highlight! The setting was unforgettably beautiful. And it was so serene on the water. Natura Viva provides the best equipment. Our guide, Tinna, made sure we knew how to use it. Good thing, as we went out WAY farther and longer than I expected. Who gets to do this? We did!
