    Happy to help staffs, always wiling to provide information for visitors’ maximum fun. It has many different sports activities are available to enjoy. Among them best one is Kayaks or guided kayak tours. A lot of islands are around the area so you can visit multiple islands while you are on the sea couple of islands. Recreational islands are nearby and their information is also available from Natura Viva’s website where you can plan a 12 hours stay to grill or overnight stay.

    Myself and 3 friends took a 4 day trip to the Lake Saimaa area of Finland with Natura Viva. They are a business run from a superb modern paddling centre by Martti, his wife Paula and son Ilkka. All are extremely friendly and knowledgeable with impeccable spoken English. Martti in particular dealt with us and we were in e-mail communication for over 8 months - all queries were dealt with promptly and completely and it is clear he has a real passion for kayaking. From planning our route to suggesting and supplying equipment, all of which was top quality, as well as the 16 hour round trip to drop and collect us twice everything was handled perfectly. Lake Saimaa is massive, stunningly beautiful and although were were there in the height of the summer season we saw only a handful of other people through our 80k route. It amazes me that so few people go to experience its tranquility - it's a real natural wonder. I can't recommend it highly enough and the only place you need to call is Natura Viva.

    Great kayaking place. Professional and knowledgeable instructors that takes safety seriously and same time have a great senc of humor. New gear and most important - amazing view while you paddling between green islands.

    Very disappointed. I called ahead to ask whether there would be a kayak available (the website says there usually are plenty for everyone, but I wanted to make sure). Nobody answered the phone. So we drove there. No kayaks available ... "sorry". Now I sit here with my 6 year old daughter, who was looking forward to a kayaking adventure :-( @illka I understand you can run out of equipment on a busy day. But you are a rental place, and you know it gets crowded on a sunny day. Picking up the phone should be a basic service you provide, so that customers can quickly ask if there's availability.

    Peaceful, quiet location. Great place for a coffee or light bite to eat. Kayaking, canoeing and row boats available for rent at reasonable prices.

    Had a really nice experience first time cycling on fat bike in the lovely Uutela area. Really friendly staff, professional guides, interesting trails guarantee an unforgettable experience! Definitely recommended!

    Amazing experience there with the rowing boat! They are open till 22.00 so I could enjoy the sunset while rowing!

    Had a awesome first experience in kayaking. Took the three days beginner courses and I can safely and comfortably go by myself now. Great instructor !

đź‘Ťđź‘Ť Our guide Leticia was super, gave us a good account of Helsinki history and of Finnish language, customs and culture. As an immigrant from Spain, her good-humoured view of Finnish life and people was nice to hear, and her appreciation of their warmth and attitudes to life was clear!

👍👍 We went on a half day hiking tour with Jeff on March 7th 2022. Jeff took us to Porkkalanniemi which is about 30 minutes west from Helsinki. We were able to experience what southern Finland’s wilderness has to offer! There was a mix of snow and greenery that allowed us to really appreciate our hikin...

đź‘Ťđź‘Ť We had an amazing time on the private island for the sunset lounge experience. The cabin was very cosy which was great since the weather was on the cooler side but the skies cleared and we still got our sunset. We also had our first finnish sauna experience which was an unexpected surprise. Difficul...

đź‘Ťđź‘Ť Paulo was an excellent guide. He picked me up & dropped me off at hotel. We spent the day together sightseeing, & sampling the local cuisine. I only had a short visit to Helsinki but left feeling like I got a real local experience.
