Experience one of Gothenburg’s most scenic waterways on a two‑hour live‑guided boat tour along Säveån, often called the city’s own “Amazon.” Departing from Kungsportsplatsen, the classic Paddan boat takes you through the historic moat and Great Harbor Canal before reaching the Göta River and continuing into Säveån’s lush, wildlife‑rich landscape. As you glide past willow trees, old wooden boats and vibrant flora, the guide shares stories in Swedish and English about Gothenburg’s maritime heritage, historic quays and landmarks. With some luck, you may spot a beaver along the riverbank. The open‑top boat offers clear views, and dressing for the weather is recommended. This peaceful tour is perfect for anyone wanting to explore Gothenburg’s natural beauty beyond the city center.

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.

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.
