Our RIB-tours are suitable for children aged five and up. Provided you're in good health, there’s no real maximum age for joining, the oldest passengers we’ve had along were well past their ninetieth birthday and they had a great time. Skimming the waters on a RIB is exhilarating, but not extreme in any sense

It’s always a bit colder on sea that on land so we would recommend bringing along: Warm layers, Gloves, Beanie, and a Neck Gaiter. For sunnier days also consider sunglasses and sunscreen. Also, don't forget your camera.

Unaccompanied minors on RIB tours should be at least 14 years of age.

Yes, you’re welcome to take pictures during the whole tour and we strongly recommend you do. We'd love to see them afterwards, remember to tag us at #Stavanger-RIB

It is very rare that any of our passengers get seasick. Our RIBs cut through waves and don’t sway the same way other boats do. Their open design also allow passengers to maintain a constant view of the horizon, which helps align the visual and vestibular (inner ear) inputs, which plays a crucial role in preventing the disorientation that can cause seasickness.

No. Our high-end RIB boats are specifically constructed to protect passengers from water splashing onboard. The hull design and inflatable tubing going around the boat act as natural fenders against sprays from the sea.

No, in typical weather conditions, the boat will cut through most waves instead of going over them. Though on windy days, some bumps from going over waves will be unavoidable. Our captains do however take great care to ensure that these waves are absorbed as gently as possible.

No need to worry. If you for any reason should become scared or uncomfortable during the tour, simply have to raise your hand and the captain will stop the boat and make sure you're doing okay. We will always ensure everyone is having a good time throughout on our tours.
