What to expect
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: The Green Trails, Tideliusgatan 62, Stockholm 118 69 Sweden
We start off with a short introduction about the archipelago kayak day's program. A 45 minute drive by air-conditioned minivan will take you away from the city and into the archipelago.
We start off with some sea kayaking instructions and safety precautions. Shortly after we're out in the Baltic Sea! We'll paddle through both small island groups and crossing open sea. The present birdlife is very rich, and swans, eagles and many other birds are seen on basically every trip. We'll pick out our own island and enjoy restaurant prepared, organic lunch.
From bird colonies to ancient fortresses, there are many sights to visit along the way. Maybe we decide to enjoy some 'fika' on the way, roping all kayaks together.
Upon return we briefly conclude the day and your guide will bring you back to the meeting point safely.

This one day tour in the stockholm Archipelago was really great!! The weather was hot with 30 ° C, but there were enough swimming breaks to refresh. Furthermore, there was enough to drink and traditional Swedish food. Our guide Manny was very nice. He was able to tell us about the landscape and the life in Sweden. All in all it was a really nice day with great weather, a great guide and a wonderful landscape. I recommend to anyone to do a tour with the green trails. I will do it again!!From the first start of our interaction, it was clear that what we as the customers wanted came second only to the concern for the environment.

From the first start of our interaction, it was clear that what we as the customers wanted came second only to the concern for the environment. Our guide made it clear that we could kayak as much or as little as we wanted and at the pace we wanted. We could focus the tour more on the wildlife, swimming, or just going for a good workout. Our group all were pretty laid back and so we got a good mix of things. The scenery is breath taking and so different from the sandy beaches of south east USA. We were lucky and got to see quite a bit of wildlife and had great weather. Our meals were served in tupper-ware style reusable boxes with reusable sporks and water bottles (the food, by the way, was delicious as well). We had the chance to explore a small island for a bit before cliff jumping into the frigid water for a very refreshing dip. I can't recommend this enough. My fiancé and I feel it's important to get a bit of nature in when we travel to big cities, and this was perfect for that. Plus you get back in time to change and enjoy a good dinner and couple drinks for the evening.We loved our day of kayaking with Pierre- He was interesting, fun and informative. Amazing views and kayaking. Our family (with two older teen boys) had a great day.

This was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Our guide was Ben - who was fantastic in all respects - he was patient, encouraging, enthusiastic and fun throughout ... made it seem like it wasn't a job! We probably kayaked ~ 30km in total in all weathers, mainly sun, lots of wind and a tiny bit of rain too. We always felt safe and Ben was totally aware at all times. The wild camping was a great experience in the most beautiful surroundings and the food was well organised, plentiful and tasty. The archipelago was stunning - the views, remoteness and the natural beauty. I can't recommend enough - the Green Trails were superb!Our family loved kayaking the Archipelago with The Green Trails.

Our family loved kayaking the Archipelago with The Green Trails. Our guide Ben was fantastic and customized the day for our group. He met us at a local cafe and we drove out to the countryside to a beautiful spot in the woods where we launched our boats. We kayaked through stunning scenery and stopped at a few of the islands to have lunch and a short walk. Ben knows a lot about the area so he described the birds and plants that we saw. Even if you only have a few days in Stockholm, I recommend spending one of them kayaking with Green Trails. The day-long tour is great for both adults and teens.
