Two hours on an open Paddan boat through Gothenburg’s moats, canals, and Säveån, with live bilingual guiding and wildlife spotting.
“Fantastisk att få se Sävån från en båt. Har vandrat många gånger längst sträckan vi åkte ned Paddan. Men det var många överraskande scenerier längst färden. Bl.a flera båtklubbar som man inte ser så noga när man går. Också väldigt grönt och fint runt å-bankarna. En duktig guide gjorde dessutom resan väldigt lärorik. Absolut värt att göra denna tur.”

De route is goed uitgestippeld en gemakkelijk te volgen, zelfs als je geen ervaring hebt met varen. Alles was goed geregeld en duidelijk uitgelegd. Absoluut een aanrader voor wie Göteborg op een unieke en ontspannen manier wil verkennen!”

Die Dame auf dem Schiff zur Erklärung was super, echt empfehlenswert. PS. öffentliche Toiletten sind in Göteburg Mangelware, bei Cafes gibt es häufig nur 1 Toilette für M / F / D und die muss noch bezahlt werden (Kreditkarte)”
