Paddle down the easy Otra River, down a beautiful landscape with Norwegian nature on both sides. The journey is relaxing and suitable for paddlers of all levels.
The tour starts when we pick you and drive you by car for 10 minutes to the starting point of the river.
At the starting point we will help you get in the kayak safely and guide you down the river. You will also get help from the river's current that pushes you calmly down the river.
The Otra River has very clean water. When you dip your paddles and move the kayak, the water feels fresh.
The area around the river is beautiful. You paddle through forests with tall trees. You will hear birds singing.
As you get close to Kristiansand, the river gets wider. The city has both nature and buildings, and the river takes you right to the center. It’s a great place to end your trip and explore.
The tour ends at the address "Kjoita 10", a 10 minute walk from the city centre!
Paddling the Otra is a trip you will remember. Welcome!

5.00A fabulous kayaking experience! Hakeem did a great job of making sure everyone was comfortable. Very good communication with Hakeem before the trip and clear directions on where to meet. He was very aware of our cruise time constraints.
Wonderful and kind guide for first timers

5.00This was my first time kayaking, and Hakeem was very kind provided excellent instructions and support. We launched in the river and were able to paddle all the way back to Kristiansand. The water was cool and clear, with a little current in some areas. We were with others ranging from tweens to seniors and all were able to participate and keep up. Highly recommend Hakeem, excellent guide!
Wonderful kayaking experience in beautiful Kristiansand

5.00Our cruise ship docked in Kristiansand on August 24th. We booked this kayaking experience because of the reviews we read in advance and we had an amazing time kayaking on the Otra River with Hakeem(owner) and about 20 people, who were mostly on our cruise ship. We were blessed with wonderful weather and had a blast! Hakeem was great to work with. He was readily available for communications before the excursion, great to talk with during the excursion, and was generous to all during the trip on the river. Definitely recommend this experience and working with Hakeem!!!
A relaxed ride with a few prints

4.00Generally we were happy with the tour (couple 31/30 years). Booking was easy, communication good and the two guides excellent! The price is also fine for Norway. One point deduction was awarded for the following: - Entire river trip is along a medium-traffic road - Nature is beautiful but hardly varied - Clothes / shoes in the designated compartments were wet - No return transport to the starting point but 20-25min walk We are glad that we participated, but would not recommend the tour without restriction.
Fantastic experience,...
