Some interesting sights but too long, over 2 hours. Would have been better if had followed a circular route (not feasible?) & not back tracked on its self!! Refreshments on board. Restrooms on board. Kr 337.5 pp (£26.55pp)

A nice 2 hour boat ride around the lakes and the canals of Stockholm. Gives a very different perspective of the city when seen from the water. The only issue is the audio guide is often not sync. with the view

It's - OK. Good bits - included on GoCity pass - boat is comfortable, commentary has some interesting bits - some nice views Not-so-good bits - *really* annoying AI voice - lots of very same-y views. If you like relatively modern apartment block architecture, you'll be in heaven. If you were hoping for more of the older architecture (like I was ....) then you'll be disappointed. See photos! - boat stays in the middle of channels (presumably to avoid wash, which is fair enough) so you don't get to see the interesting buildings close up Summary - if the weather is good, and you want to really see the buildings and architecture, save your money and explore Stockholm on foot instead. If you want to kill a couple of hours, the tour is nice enough.

Good view of Stockholm from the water. Note that the departure times are 11am and 2pm. Viator originally listed 10 am so we were at the docks way too early. The open deck at the rear of the boat is best for unobstructed picture taking but it can get cold there.

I booked my tickets from Viator which incorrectly specified the time as 10am. There are two runs at 11 am and 2pm, so since we were there, did the 11 am and had breakfast at a nearby pricy open air cafe since we were early. By 10.30am a fairly large queue had already formed so we joined in and waited. Shortly after 11am, we boarded and the trip took about 2 hours and 15 minutes. English commentary came on the loudspeakers and other languages had to use an app. Overall, it was a good tour getting to see much of Stockholm from the water. Highly recommended.

This is a nice boat tour around various points of interest around the Stockholm city islands and waterways. You'll see lots of sights, learn some history, and enjoy a boat ride for about 2 hrs. Good value for the price.

The tour was a bit boring. Upon arrival we received headphones and sat in a booth. On the table was a placard with @30 sites. There was no interaction with the staff on board. Actually we sat right behind the captain and he continued talking with the rest of the crew which made it Difficult t o hear the program on the headphones.

This is such a great way to see Stockholm from the water and there are things you see that you definitely would miss. Do it!

We enjoyed the 2 hour Stockholm Highlights Boat Tour. It was a big boat and despite the long queue of people waiting to board, we still managed to snag a window seat. We saw a lot, it was a good trip. Taking photographs through the glass windows was not ideal so for something really important you could always walk out to the very rear of the boat which was open air. The recorded commentary over the tannoy was informative, though not always 100% in synch with the progress of the boat so to some “we are now approaching xxx” comments we had to look behind ourselves to see what was being spoken about.
