No, you don’t. Most of our guests are first-timers and our trips, equipment, and briefings are designed to put beginners at ease. Our experienced guides will provide a safety orientation before the trip starts. No previous whitewater experience is necessary.

We recommend that all of our guests be in good physical health.

If you have a medical issue but you still want to go, we always recommend you check with your doctor first.

There is no maximum age limit for our rafting/canoe tours – so long as you’re physically fit you’re welcome aboard!

Plan “A” is always to stay in the boat. Many people have taken multiple trips and never fallen in. Some people swim on their first trip. It’s all a part of river a trip.

Before you go on any trip, you’ll be given extensive instructions on what to do if you fall in, and how to be a smart swimmer. Follow your guide’s instructions, and your “swim” could be the most exciting part of your trip and a great story to tell your friends afterwards!

Tip is not a regular thing in Norway as it’s in USA. Your guide works hard to ensure that you have a fun, yet safe rafting adventure and always committed to the Outdoor Norway high standard guided tour.

Tip is widely accepted as the industry norm; and tipping is always appreciated but never expected. It stays totally at your own discretion.

We start as soon as the ice is off the river, and up until the snow falls! This is usually between the start of May to the end of October. It’s all depending on Mother Nature!
