The young instructor assigned to us was clearly new and finished our briefing in 5mins. However, for a later batch, a senior guy gave detailed and correct instructions. But, there's nothing to worry, the learning curve isn't too steep. We initially went round in circles for first few minutes. But, soon figured out ourselves how to go forward and steer. Excellent guidance on route selection and help in getting in and out of the kayak by the other staff members. Remember to carry water to drink on the kayak, you will get thirsty. 2 hours is more than adequate to do a full circuit of both Långholmen and the smaller Reimersholme islands. The route is quite beautiful especially in the smaller canal sections. A waterproof action camera or case for your smartphone is highly recommended for taking pictures along the way. If the weather's good, there will be lot of private boats creating waves. Be wary of those! We almost got turned over by a big one! Happy Kayaking!

Lovely tour with several supportive instructors.

One of my best experiences in paddling out in a Stockholm at 10:00 am alone in almost rainy weather. The first time for me kayaking. I enjoyed every second, especially when I was placed in the kayak by two people who gave me instructions on having "bare" feet on the kayak pedals. After wearing a life jacket and clothing to protect water, I shot my first paddle. One instructor said I would make my trip to the right to get some wind out on the bay. And it really did. In this way I got to see Stockholm from a completely different side than the one I am used to. Been here since 1984. When I came back, the instructors stood there and welcomed me and lifted me from the kayak. I can really recommend this adventure even to someone like me who has never tried it before. I will do it again. Maria

Really cute instructor

If you’re reading this and remember me (the girl with the black summer dress and the purple bottle all alone) please contact me. I really want to go out with you because you made my heart race and my knees weak. I went kayaking at 10 AM on July 12th and met you after around 13:45. You showed me where the bathroom was and told me i had a good memory. You really are the most incredible guy i’ve ever met. Never felt this way. Maybe we can meet again.
