“Several things were gone or not in the right place. Hints were not very helpful and some of the questions were not phrased well”
Paddle Stockholm at your own pace on a two-hour kayak rental with City Hall and Old Town views, equipment included, and weather flexibility.
“The kayak was good, and the experience was good once we were paddling, however the purchase through Viator included various items, including a dry bag. This can be seen in the photos. This booking detail was shown to the operator, however they refused to allow us the use of a dry bag unless we paid extra. When politely challenged on this, they were adamant that it was our problem and not theirs. This was rude and poor customer service, and with no responsibility for their own business issues, and all for a relatively small sum of money. Not a good experience, and very unnecessary”
Paddle Stockholm’s archipelago for three days, camp on quiet islands, and enjoy quality gear, flexible routes, and expert preparation.
“Stunning area good for beginners, really nice staff with much knowledge, the recommended route was really nice, we had a wonderful sleepingspot, the equipmet was perfect (rented camping kit).”

Explore Malmö at your own pace with a 3 to 4 hour audio walk covering 16 sights, local history, quizzes, and useful city tips.
“The stops along the tour were very interesting. We listened to the full audio at each stop and even took the 1 question quiz after each stop. The application downloaded fine and the audio worked well. But navigation within the app did not work so good. I had to jump to Google maps after each stop, and for some stops, it was hard to find the designated listening spot.”
