Definately worth it! - We enjoyed this boattrip very much! Very nice guide, although we could not hear everything he told, the sound of the speakers was not very good. Despite that we loved the view on the harbor and the many islands around us.

Bring your coats!! - The tour is well organised, nice staff giving a lot of information about the history of Sweden and Göteborg. Although we had a nice sunny Sunday, the wind was very strong, and the temperature remained below 5 degrees - feeling freezing. The archipelago is beautiful so go to see it, if you have time

Great tour - We had an amazing afternoon/evening on board the boat in the upper sitting room. Great views form the windows and you could also walk onto the deck to take photos etc. Despite being minus 17 we were very warm inside the boat and if you went outside there were plenty of blankets. The Tour lasted about 3 hours and was well worth it . Beautiful views along both sides and great views of the islands , we had the benefit of it being dark on the return journey and enjoyed the lights etc along the shoreline. We witnessed an incredible sunset and watching the boat break the ice on the water as we went along was quite amazing. The guide was very informative and we could hear him perfectly over the speaker system and he spoke perfect English . You could purchase drinks and food on board which were reasonably priced , well for Sweden ! Highly recommended.

A recommendation - The trip in beautiful weather gave us a great overview of the harbor areas and the offshore islands. We particularly liked the relaxed seating on the upper deck.

Worth the price - At this rainy and cold time of year, this boat trip was a great alternative to see the nightlights of Gothenburg from the sea.

discover the islands - If you have little time, this getaway is a good way to discover the islands of the peaceful and relaxing Gothenburg archipelago.

Great tour but no indoor seating - Tour and staff are both pretty good but if you haven't purchased lunch there is not really any indoor seating. Happily it wasn't too cold and the weather (despite the forecast) stayed dry so we could sit outside. The frustrating thing is that there is plenty of indoor space, there just aren't any benches or chairs unless you start hauling furniture up and down stairs yourself. Had it rained, this would have been a one star review

Average tour and the operator - There's always some confusion with this tour in terms of it's starting point and unless you have a prebooked ticket it's very to get a place in the boat e.g. city pass. The tour itself it's okay the archipelago it's not as beautiful as in the Stockholm area. It's an okay experience.
