Really good tour with detailed audio guide! - I can only recommend this boat tour. The staff was very friendly and the area covered was big enough. We saw a lot of the islands in the archipelago and leaned about the history and the present. Highly recommended! And the food in the ship‘s restaurant was very tasty.

Amazing boat tour of the Gothenburg archipelago - The guides and staff were all so friendly and informative on the tour. The tour was about two and a half hours and we were shown the surrounding islands near Gothenburg. Amazing experience! I highly recommend if you’re visiting Gothenburg and are wanting to see the islands.

Can warm recommended - The trip was very exciting but at the same time relaxing. We booked the trip with lunch and it was a whole right decision as our fish tasted really wonderful. They also had coffee with little cakes included in the price. It was quite surprising for us as we had not counted on it. The guide was well informed and welcoming as well as the rest of the staff who were very smiling and friendly. The trip was really pragtful. This is highly recommended from here👍👍

Cozy boat trip on a rainy day - Relaxing boat trip with views of the river and some towns dotted along the archipelago. Tour guide was interesting and informative. Food and drinks options were good.

Fairly ok trip. - Went for lunch. Had bad luck getting tables where there were no windows, but after lunch we could go up on deck. Lucky with the weather so it was good. However, a big minus to the chef when it comes to the stewed potatoes for the salmon. It was tasteless and tasted mostly of flour. A bottom bite on this sea voyage.

Disappointed - Very Dissappointed. The tour guide read a script in monotone and not very interesting. The weather was pelting rain and windy and they made us all wait in that weather with no cover to the exact minute until they started boarding. Mass confusion with tickets changes because the kitchen had a problem and couldn't serve food. Climate on board was humid making the windows fog up at times.

Avoid - Showed up and waited nearly an hour....they had cancelled without letting me know. Rubbish service and extraordinary lack of interest in tourism
