About Us
CEO and founder Tony Waters (right) had over 15 years of field experience in the Adventure Tourism and Outdoor Education sector working across 10 different countries.. He relocated to Norway in 2020 and began focusing on developing new tourism businesses. So far he has project managed the launches of 7 new tourism bases, over 30 new tours/lessons and trained almost 100 tourism professionals to take on new roles.
In 2022 he founded Arctic Kayak Group to deliver a higher standard of sea kayak training that met the needs of professional guides and tour operators in Arctic.
Through this experience he learned that traditional incubators are not a good fit for adventure tourism businesses and that the help they really need is someone answering phone calls and returning emails while they are working in the field.
In 2023 we partnered with Meråker Alpinsenter to set up a ski & snowboard school owned by the instructors. In 2024 we launched Paddle to Hell
We established Nordic Adventure Specialists to act as sales and booking service and to help other guides and instructors make the leap into running their own operation.
