Spent three great days with Martin on the lake and will return one day for some more !

Martin was extremely helpful both on and off the water and I was very impressed by his equipment and knowledge of the local waters.

Can’t go wrong here …

Great Beaver tour! Martin took my husband and I on his boat for a beaver tour on one of the lakes near Arvika. We saw many Beaver on a peaceful and secluded lake. We entered the lake gently and quietly at sunset. We had great views of multiple Beaver. We even saw one get out of the water to feed and we also saw an old dam. The lake was completely secluded with no other people or boats present. We were also lucky enough to see other wildlife such as Eagle, Osprey and Cranes. It was a real privilege to see these animals in the wild from a boat and we would definitely do it again! Martin is a very knowledgeable and easy going guide!

My wife and I booked a Moose tour with Martin in August. We’re from Ireland so have never seen Moose before and we were not disappointed! Martin drove us through woodlands, lakesides and along fields in search of Moose. We saw a total of seven Moose including a really impressive large male and we also saw female with a calf. We were very happy with the views. Moose are huge but can be hard to spot, especially when there is a lot of tree cover and it’s getting dark. Martin was great at spotting Moose and also has the local knowledge of where to look for them. We told Martin via email that we were both very interested in birds and wildlife in general and Martin made an extra effort to point out and look for other animals too. The other highlights were Badger, Black Woodpecker and Black-throated Diver! Not only was Martin great at finding Moose but he also was full of information about wildlife and was very friendly and easy to talk to. We felt like we had an intimate wildlife encounter and we would highly recommend this tour.

Thank you for the excellent and very informative moose safari!

Martin brings a wealth of experience in observing animals, as well as a great deal of heart and passion for nature.

He knows the terrain and the animals’ behavior very well.

He takes plenty of time to prepare and scout the tours.

I can definitely recommend a tour with Martin to anyone who wants to delve deeper into the topic of wildlife observation.

Wat een ontzettend leuke en mooie ervaring was dit! Martin wist veel te vertellen over verschillende diersoorten, planten en bomen. En bovenal, elanden.

Martin nam uitgebreid de tijd voor ons om de omgeving te laten zien en hierover te vertellen. We zagen onderweg, mede door Martin, al enkele dieren en uiteindelijk als prachtige afsluiter, jawel, elanden! Ook hierbij nam Martin de tijd en liet ons uitgebreid foto’s en filmpjes maken en legde ondertussen veel uit in duidelijk begrijpbare taal voor ons als leken. Een onvergetelijke ervaring en realistische maar grote kans op het zien van elanden dus.

Heel erg bedankt!

Martin vertelt veel over de natuur en wildlife in de omgeving en neemt de moeite om je zoveel mogelijk te laten zien. Hij weet ook waar de elanden zich ophouden en daardoor is de kans groter dat je ze echt ziet. En dat is bij ons gelukt.

We had a very nice evening with Martin. He takes his time and knows everything there is to know. The whole safari took about 3,5 hours and took us through a beautiful and very Swedish landscape. And, yes, we saw them. 5 in total, of which a group of 3 slowly passing by… thank you, Martin.

Wij zijn met onze 2 kinderen van 8 en 10 jaar mee met Martin op elandsafari geweest en vonden het alle 4 een super leuke ervaring. Martin weet veel en kan heel goed vertellen. Een gids die Nederlands spreekt is met jonge kinderen ook echt een meerwaarde. Bovendien merk je dat hij een getraind oog heeft om elanden en andere dieren te spotten en heeft hij voldoende verrekijkers waardoor we de dieren goed konden zien. De volgende dagen wisten we hierdoor beter hoe en waar we de dieren zelf konden spotten en hebben we ook nog een eland gezien en ander wild, zoals reeën en vossen. Een aanrader dus!

We hebben een mooie avond gehad onder begeleiding van Martin. Hij is ervaren en kan veel vertellen over het wild en de omgeving. Martin deed zijn best zodat we wild zouden zien.

Op het einde van de avond hebben we 3 elanden, 2 dassen en een aantal reeën gezien.

The evening with Martin was beautiful and he was so nice and informative. His eyesight is just marvelous. We learned a lot about all the animals you could see around the area and even got to see every kind of deer species native here in the wild! The highlight was a close encounter with a moose right next to the road! Even though it was the only one we saw, the trip was totally worth it.
