We can also help determine the daily distances, so that the entire group, according to age and experience, will remember the trip as great fun. We also offer the opportunity to hire a guide and rescuer on your trip.
For first time paddlers we advise to visit the following webpage: http://kayakpaddling.net/ where you can gain “technical” information about paddling. Along with kayaks and canoes you get paddles (asymmetrical or straight) and safety equipment (we have a wide range of buoyancy aids and life jackets for children and adults). Additionally, you can get waterproof bags and barrels, spray decks, kayak or canoe dollies, cases for mobile phones and double or triple tents.
Transport – we deliver and pick up kayaks from the start and the end of the tour. We take drivers to the car park, where their cars were parked. If there is a need, we will transport all the participants (e.g. to and from hotels). In addition, we recommend the use of baggage carriage along the trail so you can travel light in a kayak or canoe. We also organise a break in the Indian lodge, accommodation and events for groups.
We cooperate with local restaurants and can help to supply catering services while on the trip. We can provide transport from Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Austria and other countries to Poland and back.
If the land route is too long we will be waiting at the airport. The nearest to us are Gdansk and Bydgoszcz. If you decide to come in your own car we provide a free, fenced car park.
