My family and I were visiting Stockholm, and decided to take a 3 hour morning kayak tour with our kids and some friends with Skargardens Kanotcenter. We had a fantastic time! Even though it rained, Theresa and Joshua made sure everyone had an amazing, fun and exciting day. We even had a Fika (traditional Swedish coffee break) on a small island, which was a delicious touch that we weren't expecting. After we were finished with the trip, we enjoyed the sauna, which was a great way to end a perfect morning. We will do this again for sure when we are in Stockholm next time!Andy and Milena are very caring and smiling people ! Milena always ensured that we were OK with our dry suits and all the equipments.

Andy and Milena are very caring and smiling people ! Milena always ensured that we were OK with our dry suits and all the equipments. She was extremely kind and patient when providing us guidance and tips on how to handle the kayak and securing our stuff from water ! We felt ultra safe when paddling with Andy. He always ensured that we were OK in spite of very windy conditions. Andy gave us just enough explanations about the fauna (birds, beavers and son), the local settings when we were paddling. Our son loved the fika and the overall experience. So did we ! Getting to the kayak center from Stockholm by bus is ultra easy. Try it you'll love it !Do this. Try this.

Me and my friends (total 3) were new to kayaking and also don't have much swimming experience. The instructor was very understanding and made sure we were comfortable with the water around us, and made us do some training exercises as it was our first time kayaking, and guided us along the beautiful archipelago. I would totally recommend this place. We would definitely visit again for another kayak tour. They provide you with all the necessary safety equipment as well.We were with 5 friends in Stockholm at 21 June (midsommar) and had a great time with the kayaking expierence.
