Completely ok - Completely ok experience. However, 1) there had been rain about 15 min prior to us arriving at the boat (no more rain during the trip), and the seats outside were wet, nobody on the boat cared to sweep them dry for us, and 2) there is quite a lot of chatter from less interested tourists, so it would have been good to increase the volume somewhat, or made it possible to receive the info about the surroundings by headsets rather than a speaker. Just a suggestion. Also, the price of sodas onboard were insanely hight, they might have sold much more with more reasonable pricing.

Great but could be hard to hear - Thank you so much! Such a great part of our trip to Helsinki from Tallinn. Unfortunately the speaker near us did not work so it was difficult to hear.

Give it a miss - Didn't enjoy it at all. We kept passing the same places over and over again. The multinational audio guide was no help at all, they kept changing language, we could not work out which sight they were talking about so did not have a clue where we were.
