Great Canoe Trip without guide I called the center the day before, a guide gave us his whatsapp number and we wrote him in the evening for confirmation. It was very spontanious and uncomplicated. The center provided us with life vests, canoes, a map and took us to the starting point which was all very uncomplicated. The river is calm and nice and the nature around it is very beautiful. Definitely worth it, no danger or complications even without guide. Not very expensive also and the stuff is super nice!

Awesome experience! Our self-guided canoeing was majestic, thank you so much for helping us discover the natural wonders of Pärnu region: driving us to Soomaa from Pärnu and vice versa and renting us the equipment (all for 40€ per person).

Great sunset by canoeing We spent three intense hours with our guide, Aivar, canoeing and searching for beavers in Soomaa, after he picked us up in Pärnu. It was the first time we've ever put our feet on a canoe and it was definitely worth it. We had the chance to take some pictures and videos of the sunset, beautifully reflected on the river. We'd absolutely recommend this experience, a truly unique possibility to live nature, its sounds and scents. You should be wearing comfortable clothes.

Evening beaver safari canoo The river is very beautiful in the evening! Our guide was friendly and told us some things about the beavers in the area. When passing through the forest we (of course) were silent. It was exiting looking for traces of beavers..... we saw one eventually (from a distance). The whole trip lasted about three hours. We hoped to see more beavers (and maybe more up close) but understand that wild animals can be elusive....which is also the charm. The price is a little high, but we are glad we made the trip!
