A change of perspective is guaranteed on our city tours, because we explore the beautiful UNESCO World Heritage city of Stralsund from a kayak. After a short introduction to the topic of safety and basic paddling knowledge, our two-hour tour starts at Dänholm, from where you already have a fantastic view of the unique city silhouette. The route leads us through the transverse channel between the harbor island and the mainland, past the imposing storage buildings. At the end of the cross canal, we turn and we now explore the harbor island from the other side, from where we have a good view of the pilot's house, the Ozeaneum and the legendary Gorch Fock. At our previously agreed meeting points you can find out everything worth knowing and interesting about the Hanseatic city of Stralsund and its history.

Great activity in Stralsund. Kayaking is fun, offers a completely different view of the city and an interesting historical overview.

A wonderful afternoon by the water around and in Stralsund. Our guide, Steffen, was extremely helpful and eager to explain his explanations in detail, amusing and informative. Mastering the kayaks was much easier than expected. Particularly positively surprising: Initially it looked like we were the only participants. The tour would have been with us alone!

If you want to experience a completely different kind of city tour. You are challenged by kayaking and that's why you're at it. Anyway, I really liked it. Our guide, Elena, brought us close to Sralsund and guided us safely on the water.

The tour with you was just sooo beautiful! Marie (our guide) explained everything with so much love & ease. Stralsund has an interesting history. At the beginning there was a briefing so that nothing could go wrong from the front. Also for "inexperienced" the tour is very suitable:) It was incredibly fun and can only recommend it to anyone:)
Great tour!

Great paddle tour on the coast of Stralsund. There was a lot of information about the history of the city. And to the sailing training ship "Gorch Fock". (Where the name of the ship came from was already very interesting) So it was completely successful and we liked it very much! Highly recommended. 🙂
Fun paddling tour and interesting stories about the city

Class event: You paddle through the whole city and the guides explain the history with a few small anecdotes. Every few hundred meters the group gathers and the next episode is told. Is a great combination of a bit of exercise, culture and above all a lot of fun looking into the history of the city. The paddling is really good to manage and really fun. Highly recommended if you are in Stralsund!
Stralsund from water: Great!

Two hours from Dänholm through the Stralsund harbour and back: A great "city tour", combined with sports, nature and city history. Price-performance are clearly right here. This time the early riser tour. That was certainly not the last time!

Very nice tour in the evening light. We were surprised that as absolute kayaker newcomers we were able to keep up so well and felt so safe in the boats. This really allowed us to focus on the interesting stories about the history of the Hanseatic League in Stralznd and Stralsund in general. A really entertaining tour that ended way too quickly
