Superb trip
Tina_arena2, Dec 2025
I was a little nervous about this trip as I get very seasick but my husband booked it and it was quite expensive. However we bother loved it. We booked though get my guide but probably better to book direct especially during the winter as you may get a deal. Full protective clothing provided and safety instructions given. All staff were very friendly and professional. The trip itself was extremely exciting and nerve wracking as you do go 65-70 mph. It probably isn’t suitable for younger people or less able bodied. We would definitely do this again and highly recommend it. They also provided a lovely snood that we got to keep after the trip 10/10

Unfortunately, we didn't get to go on the trip due to an unexpected sickness the morning of the trip which turned out to be covid, but I'm sure we would have loved it! When I contacted the tour operator and explained to him that I was too sick to go, he was very understanding and professional. He said there was no problem, and he would see to it that I got refunded which I subsequently did receive. Next time my wife and I are in Kristiansand, we will definitely be taking this RIB speed sightseeing trip!

Recommended without restriction!
