Amazing rafting trip on Sjoa river - We had an amazing day rafting on the Sjoa River with our guides Mickey and Rob, and the kayaking photographer Kuba. The day was filled with laughter, excitement, very fun rapids and plenty of rafting guide jokes. The vibe was great from the moment we arrived and the river beautiful and wild! We felt very safe after the guides’ introductions and could enjoy the experience to the fullest, even with little rafting experience. The wild water swimming, the crazy Italien rafting guide, the hot shower afterwards and the delicious soup made the day unforgettable! Highly recommended (even in bad weather, as the rain doesn’t bother you at all)!

Stunning nature, amazing guides and unbeatable hospitality - Our day trip with trip leader Joel and our raft guide Nicholas was simply outstanding. Well organized trip and well balanced experience between action and beautiful sight-seeing, there were something for everyone. The nature that Sjoa and the rafting-trip offers feel hard to beat. Other than the rafting we also stayed for three nights in one of the rooms that Go Rafting Sjoa offers. Our room was called ”Africa” and the furnishing lived up to its name! We were also very pleased with the breakfast that offered several bread, eggs, cereals, greens and sandwich toppings! (They also take well care of you if you have any special diets or requests. For ex, gluten) Thank you so much to all the guides, staff and the owners for this experience. Highly recommended!
