Amazing experience
Although our trip was shortened due to bad weather, we had the best experience with get out kayak! Communication with the team regarding cancellation and refund was amazing. On arriving to base on the day we left Thea was incredibly welcoming and showed us a good route keeping in mind the conditions. Our trip involved a mix of cafe stops and secluded camps in gorgeous locations. Despite some choppy conditions our experience with get our kayak was a 10/10

Stunning Kayak Trip
From the Pickup to the Equipment and the Food everything was planned perfectly. The Guides suggested us a route but we were free to do what we wanted. Organisation was well thought through and very complete 😄 Tip: bring some Water shoes and a Hammock if you want a sleep alternative on sunny nights

Amazing experience with a supportive and quality operator
Although I had done several day kayak trips this was my first multiple day, overnight trip- and my first experience of wild camping. I was slightly nervous but Get Out Kayak were amazing- from the top quality gear that makes the experience easier, to the reimagine and local knowledge which meant I spent the second day (the longest part of my trip) with a tail wind and in calm waters, they delivered. I would recommend this for solo travellers, but also for families and groups of friends. The scenery and nature is amazing and from a kayak you see it all. Great company, great location, great product!

Brilliant experience at get out kayak.
We thought that this experience was definitely worth it. Firstly the staff who greeted/saw us off were absolutely amazing.When we were getting ready to go out on the water the staff explained everything to us. They told us the best places to camp and explained the route very clearly. We were provided with dry bags and phone holders. The kayaks were in amazing condition and were very easy to use: even for beginners. The places we stopped at were beautiful and very peaceful. Overall i would recommend this experience to anyone.

Why this scores 76
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
3-Day Self-guided Kayak Weekend Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Stockholm.
How much does 3-Day Self-guided Kayak Weekend Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $414 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Stockholm usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 3-Day Self-guided Kayak Weekend Tour take?
+
Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Stockholm is not rushed.
Is 3-Day Self-guided Kayak Weekend Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 26 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Stockholm, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 3-Day Self-guided Kayak Weekend Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 3-Day Self-guided Kayak Weekend Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 3-Day Self-guided Kayak Weekend Tour?
+
Around 9 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Stockholm can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Stockholm and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 3-Day Self-guided Kayak Weekend Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Stockholm within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Stockholm?
+
On Outty we rank every Stockholm experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Stockholm: Walking Tour of the Old Town, Best of Stockholm: Small Group Walking Tour (Max 10, 3 Hours), Vasa Museum Guided Tour, Including Ticket & Guide. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Stockholm?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Stockholm?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in 3-Day Self-guided Kayak Weekend Tour?
+

Not included: Transport to/from the kayak center (travel convenient to us by public transport); Food (can be easily shopped on the way out to the kayak center); and Personal clothes for outdoor use and other personal items.

Where is the meeting point for 3-Day Self-guided Kayak Weekend Tour?
+
Our Kayak Center at Stavsnäs is beautifully located right on the beach at the Stavsnäs Guest Harbour. If you arrive by bus you walk about 150 meters to the right along the water past the petrol station to find us. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is 3-Day Self-guided Kayak Weekend Tour offered in?
+
It is offered in Swedish and English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

+

Is 3-Day Self-guided Kayak Weekend Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
