Scenic tour of the islands around Stockholm. - We really enjoyed the cruise around the islands of Stockholm. While the boat was quite crowded, everyone did have a seat, though you may need to share a table. The commentary was excellent and very informative. The facilities were clean, and the activity was well organised from start to finish. I also appreciated the thoughtful touch of providing paper towel so passengers could keep the large picture windows free of fog, which made a real difference to the experience. A great way to see the archipelago and learn more about the area. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Worthwhile tour - We were traveling 2h in October. We were lucky, it was sunny. We decided and for outdoor places. Pillows and blankets helped fight the cold. The tour was great, very informative and entertaining. We have seen beautiful islands and summer cottage. Highly recommended!

Beautiful - This was well worth it. We sat on the top so it does get chilly, dress accordingly, but the scenery is worth it. The boat was clean. There is food, beer, wine, mixed drinks available to purchase onboard. We would definitely recommend!!

3 days in Stockholm - This was a very full boat. It was good that they provide blankets fir those sitting outside, as it is very cold in Dec!! Saw some great sites and lovely islands. The guide was very knowledgeable & had a great sense of humour. However, we almost missed the boat because the meeting point directions were so vague. There was no contact from the tour operator prior you the day, which was also not great.

horrible. - Horrendous experience, the tour was not respected and neither was the duration. They did a hop on hop off tour instead of this tour and I don't find that correct.
