SEK
On a Self guided tour you’re on your own adventure, but with plenty of support from us. You get all the paddling gear you need, we will give you a solid review of both equipment and paddling route over a coffee before setting off. Then we will come and pick you up, your friends and all the equipment when you’re finished. No backtracking. Easy and convenient.
You can choose to paddle three, four, five, six or seven days. If you need camping equipment you can rent a camping package from us. It has never been easier to find a great paddling adventure.
Southern route
A Self guided sea kayaking tour along the southern route is a fabulously beautiful journey through a varied coastal landscape. You start in a lush, green and relatively weather-protected inner archipelago environment in the fjordlands area, before the paddling takes you to the rugged and rocky outer archipelago, with charming fishing communities and horizon feel. You will meet steep rock walls, inviting sandy beaches, colonies of sea birds, spectacular sunsets and deserted islands to stay overnight. Perhaps you will also get close contact with Bohuslän’s landscape animal, the harbor seal. The southern route also gives you many alternatives, where much of the paddling takes place, or can take place, on relatively weather-protected waters. Perfect if any or a few days offer windy conditions.
Dates
You can start your Self guided tour any day between May 1 and September 30.

Testimonials
We had a great kayaking experience and we will definitely be back. Upplevelsebolaget were great to deal with. Everyone was friendly and excited for us and wanted to hear about our trip. It was nice to feel that warmth of strangers when we were so far away from home. The waters we paddled were beautiful and we have a lot of great memories to look back on.







Time & Place
You start your Self guided tour from our kayak center at 09.00 on departure day. Before you launch we give you a thorough review of the equipment and paddling route. When you have finished your kayaking we pick you up at 15.00 last day. This means that we are back in time for you to wash your equipment and take off around 17.00.
Please note that our times are fixed. Make sure to plan your travel itinerary to fit them. Other times can be agreed on request, to an additional cost.
Previous experience
You need not be an experienced kayaker, but we recommend that you at least have some paddling experience to go on a Self guided tour. If you have never paddled before, we suggest you take a basic course or a private lesson with us before setting off. We do, also, assume that you are able to swim and that you are at least 15 years old, or paddle in the company of a responsible adult.

Dear Upplevelsebolaget team! I first need to start by thanking you all for facilitating such a great experience. The equipment, your advice and enthusiasm together with the actual trip far exceeded my expectations. I will recommend you to others and in the words of Arnold Schwazenegger - "We will be back!".
The service we received in Sweden was far beyond what we expected, nothing was too much trouble and we were made very welcome. Obviously with any hire company we wern´t sure what would be waiting for us when we arrived but we were both impressed by the equipment provided. Proper charts in Ortlieb waterproof cases really showed how professional they were.
Thank you very much for this wonderful experience.
Thank you so much. We had a briliant five days and would love to come back again.
Hi there! Just wanted to let you know that we had the most brilliant time doing our 4 days sea-kayaking. We have some excellent pics and are still talking about it, a month on.... such great times. Many thanks again, and hope to see you again for another adventure.
Beautiful and varied scenery, camping on deserted islands, cooking fresh fish over an evening campfire, lovely sunshine, great wildlife and having the world to ourselves. It was a great holiday.
