Archipelago Tour with guide

There’s no better way to spend a summers day in Gothenburg than on a guided boat tour of the stunning archipelago. Experience Sweden’s natural beauty for yourself and cruise along the water to enjoy a two-and-a-half-hour ride on the M/S S:t Erik.

Running during the summer months only, make the most of the bright sunny days and see Sweden’s famous natural beauty from the comfort of your own seat, passing the harbour and historic Älvsborg Fortress along the way, two of Gothenburg’s most important landmarks.

Take in the views along the waterway and bustling harbour and look out towards the picturesque islands. Gothenburg’s archipelago is made up of 20 islands stretching out from the coastline, including stunning beaches, and tiny rural villages – so don’t forget your camera!

You’ll also pass the historic Älvsborg Fortress, the large sea fortress at the mouth of the Göta River in Rivö fjord, on one of the islands. Your guide will be able to tell you about the significance of this 17th-century fortress and the defensive part it played in Gothenburg’s history.
