Why choose Mad Goats?
- We transport your belongings to the trip end point in our vehicle making logistics smooth and easy.
- We have double packrafts (stable inflatable kayaks) if you want to paddle together or with young children.
- We take photos and share them for free after the tour!
- Children under 10 years old go for free. They must go in a packraft together with their parent or caregiver.

Difference between packrafts and kayaks:
Choose between a packraft or kayak - packrafts are more stable and your child can go together with you if they are under 10. If you are wanting the most stable watercraft, then we recommend you choose a packraft - no need to book one in advance, just ask our guides at the start of the trip and we will help you. Kayaks are more sporty, but still suitable for absolute beginners. Kayaks are slightly less stable but faster. If you are unsure what to use, then just ask our friendly guides and they will assist you.

Transport:
We transport everything for you from the start point to the end point meaning that you do not have to bring luggage with you in the kayak / packraft. Our driver will take good care of your belongings and make sure they are returned to you in Bjørvika where the trip ends.
