About this experience
Explore Gothenburg from the water with a flexible live-guided Hop On–Hop Off boat tour that lets you discover the city at your own pace.
With a 24‑hour ticket, you can board and exit the boat at five convenient stops: Kungsportsplatsen/Stora Teatern, Brunnsparken/Lejontrappan, Lilla Bommen, Eriksberg and Haga/Feskekôrkan.
Travel easily between top attractions, waterfront areas and vibrant neighborhoods. A live guide (Swedish and English) shares stories about Gothenburg’s history, harbor life and key landmarks as you cruise. Stay onboard for a full loop or hop on and off as often as you like. The open boats have no roof, so dressing for the weather is recommended.
