4.00Our 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.
Great guide and comfortable boat.

5.00The 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.

1.00complete 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.
Relaxing & informative

5.00We had heard it was difficult to find so we left plenty of time. We found it not from the address provided on TripAdvisor but by googling Lovely Cruises. It was cold & grey outside but inside the passenger cabin was warm and comfortable. Our hosts were very friendly and welcoming. The tour commentator spoke English and German and answered questions by walking around chatting easily with everyone. It was interesting to have historical facts mixed with contemporary comments about Sweden/Swedish lifestyle. Drinks & snacks consumed. Would definitely recommend. Thank you.
Great value for money
