Description

Experience Gothenburg from a unique perspective as you glide along its historic canals on a classic open-air Paddan boat. This guided sightseeing cruise takes you through the heart of Sweden’s vibrant coastal city, revealing stories from its 17th-century origins.

As your boat winds beneath twenty charming bridges, your knowledgeable guide shares fascinating insights in both English and Swedish. Marvel at the city’s old moat, picturesque waterways, and the lively harbor, where traditional shipyards and the bustling fishing port come into view.

The tour lasts approximately 50 minutes, offering a relaxed yet immersive journey through Gothenburg’s maritime heritage. You'll also pass expanding commercial districts, academic sites, and the impressive maritime museum, all visible from the comfort of your seat.

Please dress for the weather, as the boat is open-top and exposed to the elements. Life vests are provided, with adults having the option and small children required to wear them for safety. Note that boarding requires navigating a staircase and some flexibility for low bridges.

This city canal cruise is perfect for small groups or solo travelers seeking an authentic introduction to Gothenburg. Secure your spot today and discover the city’s hidden gems from the water—spaces fill quickly, so book now to avoid missing out!
