Questions about paddling or our ready tours? Here’s what you need to know
What’s included when I book a ready paddling tour?
When you book a paddling tour with Lakeside Adventure, a canoe or kayak delivered to your start point, paddles, life jackets, and a detailed map are included. Bring a little travel food depending on the length of the tour and show up ready to go!
Do I need paddling experience to book?
No! Our tours are designed for both beginners and experienced paddlers. You get clear instructions before you start, and we help you choose a tour that matches your skill level.
Can I paddle with children?
Absolutely! Several of our tours are child-friendly. We offer equipment in child sizes and help you choose a route based on children’s ages and paddling familiarity. Contact us for personal advice.
How long is a typical paddling tour?
We offer everything from short day tours (2–6 hours) to multi-day tours up to 7 days. You choose how much adventure you want — we have options for all needs.
Can I book as a group or association?
Yes! We have ready packages for schools, associations, and groups. Our group activities can include leaders, exercises, overnight stays, and teambuilding. Contact us and we’ll tailor an arrangement for your group.
What do I need to bring myself?
Clothes appropriate for the weather, waterproof shoes, sun protection, drinks, and any packed food.
How does the transport work?
We bring the canoe/kayak and your rented equipment to the start point. When you’re done, leave everything locked at the finish point and we’ll pick it up later. You take bus or train back. No logistics for you — just paddle and enjoy.
What happens in bad weather?
Always check weather forecasts — especially wind strength and possible thunderstorm warnings. A bit of rain is not a barrier for paddling if you have the right clothes. In strong winds we recommend postponing or cancelling the tour. In case of thunder, seek shelter on land — paddling should always be avoided as it is a direct safety risk on open water. If we agree the weather is dangerous, we will reschedule or refund your booking. Safety always comes first.
How do I book a tour?
You book easily online via our website. There you choose date, number of people, and tour. You’ll receive a confirmation email with everything you need. If you have questions before booking, contact us by phone or email.
