Amazing personalized water experience - We had an excellent time and would highly recommend the tour. The water is such a central part of Helsinki, it would be a shame to visit without going out on the water in some way. There are larger ‘tour’ boats but we had a sail boat all to ourselves (plus our skip of course). Our skip was worth the tour by himself! It is his sail boat and he is passionate about both Helsinki and sailing. It was an absolute pleasure to spend the evening with him on his boat.

Full family cruise with 6 people, very comfortable and enjoyable! - Went on a lovely trip with Tero (The Captain) with my family and young son. First off life vests were available, and one perfectly fit my 2 year old son who had a blast (until he fell asleep on his grandfathers lap!)
Highly recommend bringing a few beers or beverages to enjoy on the prow as Tero cruises you around Helsinki. The price point for a great tour cannot be beat.
The boat had all the facilities you really need, a small bathroom and a cabin to store your materials. We left our stroller at the Cafe where he picked us up, but honestly it probably would have fit find in the Cabin.
It was a great family outing and a wonderful way to spend the evening. The sparkling wine and snacks were a nice way to Cap the evening.

Great way to spend an evening in Helsinki - Our group was traveling for 6 days and this was was one of our favorites. The weather was foggy and cool but we wanted to sit outside for all of it. The captain is laid back and let us set the time of the trip. Answering questions we had but also letting us sit and enjoy the experience.

Sightseeing by Boat, a must do experience - My boyfriend and I had an amazing time on this sailing trip. The views are absolutely beautiful and make it easy to shut your brain up and just look. The route and sailing experience help take in the views of Helsinki from the water.
Another shining moment for me is the captain. He's very kind and has a lot of information. He has a great sense of humor and really just amplified the experience for us.
