Leaving from the Redrib Hub at Kanavaranta 4, we head for the archipelago on the east side of the city. We visit one of over 170.000 island, where we experience the wild nature before enjoying a light outdoor snack lunch.
Have a peak into a real Finnish sauna, or why not try it out yourself! We get a glimpse of the life in the archipelago and summer cottages. Weather depending, we take the outer route back to the city enjoying the speed of a RIB-boat!

Our captain Olli was top notch! He explained the landmark and history of Helsinki, The rib is a trip everybody that visits helsinki should do, is the correct way to see and know the Archipelago.

My husband and I had to most amazing experience with Olai (spelling?) on the 3 hour Archipelago Experience 1 with RedRib. We toured by islands, the old forts, charming homes, the new bridge, experienced the speed of the rib boat and stopped for a traditional sauna and plunge in the sea (repeat, repeat, repeat). The sauna experience is not to be missed! This is not just a super fun tourist activity but an immersion in Finish culture. Olai was extremely nice and informative - we talked his ear off! Excellent guide and tour and we can highly recommend it!

What a fun, informational, and local experience this was. The boat ride alone was so exciting and felt very safe. Olli was our tour guide and he made the trip EXCEPTIONAL. Excellent driver but he also shared so much detail about the islands, culture, Helsinki the city, and helped us with sharing a sauna with some locals. The sauna experience felt so authentic and paired with the surprisingly really good soup we had after, felt like we really got a true experience of hanging in nature and enjoying a Finnish norm. This tour made my visit !

Marco and his wife we're very kind. The boat was a lot of fun for all members of the family. We enjoyed a lovely day at the island with a delicious lunch. Consisting of a homemade wood fired salmon soup and bread. They also did a cowboy style coffee and some sweet local treats. We enjoyed our time at the sauna, which was amazing. I wish we could have spent more time there. I would highly recommend this for anyone who enjoys rib boat adventures.

We had the best day! Our guide and captain Olli was kind, knowledgeable, and great company! We loved moving at high speeds in the boat, braving a dip in the cold water, and warming up in the sauna/with soup for lunch. We honestly cannot recommend this experience enough!

we took a boat trip with olli & samuli 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 We had an absolutely unforgettable time with Redrib Experience in Helsinki! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and filled with good energy. The crew were not only super professional and polite but also incredibly fun and engaging—cracking jokes and sharing fascinating info about the city and the sea. Even the little details stood out—like how fresh and clean the life jackets smelled (not something you usually notice, but it really made a difference!). The ride itself was thrilling, with stunning views of the Helsinki archipelago that you simply can’t get from land. It was the perfect mix of adventure, comfort, and local insight. I’d highly recommend Redrib to anyone looking for a unique and exhilarating experience in Helsinki. Can’t wait to do it again! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 كانت تجربتنا مع Redrib Experience في هلسنكي لا تُنسى بكل معنى الكلمة! من البداية إلى النهاية، كل شيء كان منظمًا بشكل مثالي ومليئًا بالطاقة الإيجابية. الطاقم كان محترفًا جدًا ومهذبًا، وفي نفس الوقت ممتع ولطيف – أطلقوا النكات وشاركوا معلومات شيّقة عن المدينة والبحر. حتى أدق التفاصيل لفتت انتباهنا – مثل رائحة سترات النجاة النظيفة والمنعشة (شيء قد لا تلاحظه عادة، لكنه فعلاً أحدث فرقًا!). الرحلة نفسها كانت مليئة بالإثارة، مع مناظر خلابة لأرخبيل هلسنكي لا يمكن رؤيتها من اليابسة. كانت مزيجًا مثاليًا من المغامرة والراحة والمعلومات المحلية. أنصح وبشدة بتجربة Redrib لأي شخص يبحث عن مغامرة فريدة وممتعة في هلسنكي. لا أستطيع الانتظار لتكرارها مرة أخرى! ينفع للمحجبات

Easy walk from Market Square. Restrooms available. Excellent suit up gear; secure storage. RIB experiences are undertaken for the thrill and this delivers, though waters were calm. Great tour around local islands and sights. Crew very conscious of passenger needs and educational info.

An absolutely awesome trip around the archipelago! Our guide was fantastic—he took us all over, quickly changed plans when one dock was overcrowded, and even provided a homemade dish for our lunch. He was super personable and knowledgeable, and we had a great time. Would love to come back and do another one!

Fabulous trip that offered the opportunity to see the many islands around Helsinki. Our guide, Ollie, was informative, fun and very accommodating. The sauna and lunch were an added bonus. Highly recommend!
