Archipelago and city boat tour. - Excellent tour. Informative, engaged and humorous host. Showing parts of the city and archipelago you'll not see other from the water. Money well spent.

Nice way to see the archipelagos - The ride was full of nice information about the surrounding islands. There was the option to sit inside or on the 2nd deck with a blanket. The tour guide was especially informative and seemed to relate to the crowd well as he spoke with each of the groups and asked where they were from then most oftenwould respond to them with a greeting in that country's language. He appeared to really enjoy his job which made our experience even more pleasant.

Great guide and comfortable boat. - The trip guide was excellent- very informative and good fun. It was lovely to get out of the city centre and see some of the context of the area, and scenery. The boat was comfortable and they give you rugs if you want to sit on deck. Not a lot of deck room but good views from below- it was chilly so we appreciated the indoor seating.

Informative and beautiful boat tour - Our tour guide was really good. The boat had an open deck on the top so you could see everything, rather than looking out a window. Well worth it as we got to see parts of the islands we wouldn't have seen on foot.

DO NOT BOOK - SCAM - complete scam. no boat showed up. i booked 2 days in advance and no communication about it being cancelled or anything etc. waited at the meeting point 15 mins in advance (it was the correct place - by the statue with the two lovely cruises and red sightseeing flags) and then waited for half an hour after in case it was running late. DO NOT BOOK.
