Fun and informative trip with great music and excellent energy.
Driver / captain and tour guide were both relaxed and friendly.
I’ve always wanted to do an amphibious experience but this one was disappointing. There was no opportunity to take pictures either on land or on the water. I wasn’t particularly interested in having the guide point out the apartments where celebrities had lived.
This was the best, if you have a free hour in Stockholm, this is such a stupid fun activity, you have to try it.
Was great fun. Would’ve liked it to have been a little longer but the tour was fab. You need to be prepared to sit on wet seats if at the back of the bus and also open to a bit of participation as the tour guide was bringing great energy which not all responded to!!
The perfect excursion and warm up to this beautiful city on arrival day/day 1.
Jet lagged and tired - you’re able to sit back and learn about the history and highlights from the comfort of your seat.
Our tour guide Lydia was hilarious and so nice. She brought the energy and the laughs to power us through.
Would recommend for people with children, friends traveling together, and even older folks who tire easily walking around.
Nice tour with a reasonable amount of facts on buildings etc. Guide with good skills in Swedish and English.
The crew are very enthusiastic and get right into it.
The tour leader had lots of great information and it was a very pleasant time. There are general knowledge competitions, karaoke and lots of laughing.
If you just want one of those full of information tours with no fun or humour, don't take this one.
It was a funfilled and educational city sightseeing with absolutely funny and nice tourguide Sofia and the Captain Henrik. We have learned a lot about Stockholm. Extra fun for kids when we where in the ocean. We will surely do it again in the future.
Beside the sightseeing it‘s a very funny trip:) :):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):)
We had the very best guide, Alisha! She was Amazing! She was perfekt for this job and gave us good and interesting information about Stockholm.
We had a very lovely girl as our tour guide, she was amazing, she gave us interesting information whilst also bringing the fun vibes. I took the tour at 11:00 am which I will highly recommend as we got to see the changing of the guards at the royal palace on our way back. This was by far a highlight of our trip.
Was unexpected, fun and entertaining.
Just engage with it and enjoy the ride through the city and sea
Ester was an awesome guide and made the whole trip fun with a lot of jokes. Our kids really enjoyed the experience. Highly recommend!
It was great from start to finish. A lot of fun with humorous staff and music. Plus lots of interesting facts as you travel.
They take you past a few highlights in town, but really didn't get to see too much, as a lot was on the left side of the boat. I felt like they could have taken you past more as other tours like this do.
The bus/boat tour was fun, informative and just the right length of time. Our tour guide put it over the top. Her enthusiasm, personality and knowledge doubled the enjoyment.
It’s a very unusual tour, with an amphibious bus , through Ostermalm, and on water , along Djurgarden
Axel and Pele were awesome! That was a fun way to experience Stockholm on land and in the water. Definitely recommend.
This was great value for money and such a good laugh too.
Thank you Luva and Captain! Enjoyed the tour, the Information and the songs!
This is a great and fun way to experience Stockholm from land and water. We enjoyed the music and Axel's energetic dance moves and commentary a lot.
Scenic! Needed a little but more information.. but overall nice ride about. Guide loves to dance, would love more about Abba.
Our family with 2 17 year old sons enjoyed this tour! It was a well spent hour. The host was very energetic…at first it was a bit overwhelming but she was genuinely enthusiastic and passionate about her city.
Well worth it to see the city from land and water in short space of time. Loss of insider information from local guides about the city rather than too much history. The atmosphere is definitely upbeat with jokes, music, clapping, dancing and ABBA. It would have been good without this also but was nicely balanced with an actual tour
Our tour guide, Esther, was amazing. Such high energy and so much fun. She was able to effortlessly weave wit and her depth of knowledge of the city together to create a memorable tour experience. Brava!
Great trip. Guide was fun and informative. Recommend if you have an hour to spare and want a quick orientation.
It can be windy and cold on the lake, so bring a jacket and warm clothes. Quite cramped on the bus/boat...

A different but very funny sightseeing. An interesting round both on land and at sea. Do you recommend this tour if you are tourists in Stockholm!

Check your website in the ticket showed that the boat was supposed to leave at 10:00 but in reality it was at. 11.00 👎

The pity is that it is only in English, and the girl spoke too fast for my level of English. Very fun

That they should be prepared for the foam before the bus goes into the water. Even if the staff announces it.
