This tour features -Troll myths, waterfalls, and a goat farm - and is perfect for those who are new to kayaking or only have a few hours to enjoy paddling on our famous fjord. We start at the kayak base at Homlong and paddle down the fjord to enjoy views of the many spectacular waterfalls such as Gjerdefossen, Bringefossen, and often, the Seven Sisters. The guide will take good care of you and tell you all interesting facts about the Geirangerfjord and the surroundings. Remember to bring a camera to capture the stunning scenery and amazing views, you only get from the cockpit of a kayak.
Please Note: each child (10-15 years) must be accompanied by an adult of 18 years or older. This accompanying adult must be prepared to do all the paddling in a double kayak as it is often that the child will have little or no effective paddling effect.
Each individual cannot be more than 100kg, or have hips wider than 40cm, or be taller than 200cm. Anyone who cannot sit upright on the floor with their legs straight out in front of them (flexibility) will likely find this uncomfortable.
