Worth the trip - Enjoyed a trip this morning. The guide was very informative and friendly. And gave us opportunity to ask questions. There was a mini cafe where we could buy snacks (including the vacuum snack!). Trip was just long enough so could have a late lunch afterwards. It’s undercover but you can also venture outside if the weather is ok!

Amazing tour - Very informative and pleasant trip. The tour guide explained the area very well. Stunning views along the way, I took so many photos! We were really lucky with the weather, blue skies and warm.

Blue sky blue sea. - I booked the tour two months ago for my family of 8 including 3 young children. We defiantly lucked out on the weather as the sun shone and the sky was a clear vibrant blue . Everyone enjoyed the tour and we found indoor space to sit together. The only slight drawback was the minimal choice of lunch items to buy .Overall the tour and commentary were excellent.

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.

Sightseeing - Unfortunately it rained constantly whilst we were on this door but I still enjoyed it. The tour lasted about 2 hours and I can imagine it would be wonderful in better weather. You can purchased snacks and beverages on board.

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