The Best!

We had the best day! Our guide and captain Olli was kind, knowledgeable, and great company! We loved moving at high speeds in the boat, braving a dip in the cold water, and warming up in the sauna/with soup for lunch. We honestly cannot recommend this experience enough!

An absolutely awesome trip around the archipelago! Our guide was fantastic—he took us all over, quickly changed plans when one dock was overcrowded, and even provided a homemade dish for our lunch. He was super personable and knowledgeable, and we had a great time. Would love to come back and do another one!

So much fun! Ollie was our guide and boat driver. Spoke great English. Had to wear waterproof jackets and lifejackets provided by Ollie. Load our personal belongings into waterproof bag. Getting into rib boat was easy, 6 in front and a few in back. Seats were kind of like sitting on a saddle with hand holds in front. Took off out harbour fairly slowly through a couple of islands and then Ollie opened it up and we roared along at speed. We went to a small island "beach". It wasn't a "beach" just a rocky outcrop with a pier. At 63 it was hard to get out of boat onto pier as it was 4 ft higher than boat with only a big nail sticking out for leverage. Got hauled out like a sack of potatoes. (be warned!). Thanks to my haulers. Island was lovely. Ollie set up sauna then swim (hell no, too bloody cold) for folks, took us for a walk around the island which had stunning views and wild strawberries, blueberries and mushrooms, then set up a delicious picnic lunch. Lovely salads with shrimp mayo appetizer with berries and Finnish chocolate. Sorry Ollie, Finnish chocolate is good, but Lindt is better. Spent about 2 hours on Island then zoomed like crazy back across the archipelago to harbour. I think I was an inch shorter when we got back with the pounding of the boat Ha, Ha! Would do it all again but requires the ability to do a bit of climbing and not for anyone with spinal issues. Highly recommend.
