Best of both worlds – City & Nature – Bike & Kayak

Join us on this one-of-a-kind Oslo private tour that combines an Oslo bike tour and a serene kayak trip in the Oslofjord. (in cooperasjon with our partner Viking&Biking)

The meeting point is at Viking Biking & Hiking headquarters where you can select the bikes that best suit you and your group. From there you’ll experience a guided bike tour through the city, where we will begin in the downtown area, visit the Royal Palace, bike through the picturesque neighborhood of Frogner towards the Vigelund Sculpture Park and continue down to the Oslofjord. There will be plenty of stops along the way where you can relax and take pictures, and our guide will share a wealth of knowledge, stories and insights. Here is a chance to explore the city-side of Oslo, and get an idea of what it is like to live here as a local.
From there, our next destination is the Sjølyst Marina, where you’ll have the opportunity to experience a beautiful and peaceful side of Oslo – the seaside! At the Oslo Kayak Tours base you will receive the equipment best suited to you and we will take you through safety instructions before we head out on the water of the Oslofjord. From here it is only a short way to small islands and nice sandy beaches. The guides will share information on sights like the picturesque marina with its house boats, as well as the beaches and sea-cliffs along the coast of the peninsula Bygdøy. Kayak experience is not necessary, as we adapt our tours to our guests. We use single and double kayaks and will provide you with the boat that fits you and your abilities best.

After your paddling trip around the islands of Oslo and the cosy beaches, we’ll jump back on the bikes and guide you back into town following the coastal bike path. The last stop is the architecturally impressive, ultra modern Oslo harbour of Aker Brygge. This is sure to be a unique and exciting outdoor experience!

Guided kayak- and canoe tour on beautiful lake Bogstad

Oslo Kayak-Tour’s skilled instructors take you on an experience-rich tour on calm water in beautiful nature, including a historical background. We give you an introduction to develop your paddling skills and the trip is suitable for everyone, both adults and children.

The tour starts on the beach at Bogstadvannet where the boats are ready. We paddle past Bogstad Manor, a magnificent manor house from the 17th century which has played an important role in Norwegian history. Furthermore we paddle up the Sørkedal River, which winds its way into the valley. Here we can paddle upstream on a calm river with exciting nature and wildlife on both sides. The paddling trip continues to the north-east corner of the lake and we disembark at Bjørnsgard, which is a small Norwegian folk-museum with several small log houses and farm buildings. The oldest buildings are up to 800 years old and are among the best preserved in the world. Here we take a short break with coffee, mineralwater and a snack before paddling back.
