Weather limitations: Whitewater rafting is a great activity to do on sunny or rainy day’s
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 you get on the water and coach you the whole way through the rapids. No previous whitewater experience is necessary.
We recommend that all of our rafters be in good physical health.
If you have a medical issue but you still want to go rafting, we always recommend you check with your doctor first.
There is no maximum age limit for our rafting tours – so long as you’re physically fit you’re welcome aboard!
Our scenic float is also an amazing experience for anyone still wanting to get out on the river, but not interested in grade III rapids.
Plan “A” is always to stay in the boat, but believe it or not, many people love falling out of the raft, after the fact. It’s exciting, but it can be disorienting and a little overwhelming at first. Many people have taken multiple trips and never fallen in. Some people swim on their first trip. It’s all a part of river rafting 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 rafting 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!
Refund Guarantee
If your trip is cancelled due to COVID choose from free date changes, account credit or full refund.
