It was an absolute pleasure kayaking with Andrea and Bartek. We went as a group of 4 with different levels of kayaking experience. Andrea and Bartek are fun, friendly and experienced guides who accompanied us through a wavy afternoon. The entire 3-hour trip was safe and enjoyable. It offered a great view of Flam from the fjord as we paddled away from the harbor. Highly recommend the tour and would love to be back again!…

A great experience from start to finish. Our guide Ervin had 25 yr Kayaking experience, 20 of which are in Norway. He made the experience amazing. Very positive atmosphere and full of knowledge. I’d highly recommend the trip and him. Definitely do this over any other trip in Flam. We even got a few photos from the guide at the end as an added bonus.…

If you have never done Kayaking before, 3 hour paddle tour is a must to do when you are in Flam. This is the best place to start kayaking for beginners for sure, however we were also accompanied with people who have done kayaking before and they all enjoyed the tour. Ervin is a great instructor and made sure we feel comfortable in all aspects. We were provided with wet suits, life jackets and waterproofing equipment to store camera / phone. We were also provided with good amount of training before we started paddling on the fjord. The kayaks are very stable and also have rudder to help change directions. During the tour we took few breaks at different points where Ervin enriched us with knowledge about those areas. Aurlandsfjord is very beautiful and enjoying the landscape around it from a Kayak is a beautiful experience indeed. It was amazing experience and we will come back to do this again :)…

Kayking is a must when visiting fjords! Totally worth the money, even though it might feel a bit pricey (for 1-day rental of double kayak we spent a bit less than 2.000 NOK). I am really happy we chose Njord kayak rental, the instructor was really nice and give us instructions regarding kayak use and safety on the spot. Although we never went kayaking before, it was a great experience for us and we spet almost 6 hours on the water. The views are marvellous! We got all necessary equipment and went all the way to Undredal. If you want to go further and aren't experienced in kayaking, I would recommend at least 2-day rental (especially if you want to go from Aurlandsfjord to Nærøyfjord). Be sure to book in advance, I wanted firstly to book a tour (a month in advance) but it was sold out - however, it was even better to go alone at the end in my opinion. I really recommed this to everyone visiting Flåm.…

We were lucky to get a spot on their kayak course on just a weeks notice, we checked pricing, loaction and what was in the course from several kayak courses. But I have to say I’m really, really happy we got spot in this one. Erwin, our instructor was calm and thourough with a good sense of humor, and best of all, it was sincire and natural. The cours gave us a very good starting point for our future kayaking journy and the landscape and weather was nothing but breathtaking. The course was very good for me as a beginner and the few that had some prior experiance seemed to enjoy it just as much and pick up lots of tips and skills. We also got to rent a few kayakas for our friends to enjoy after the course with them. An easy 5 star recommendation from me.…
