Full description

Experience sightseeing with a splash during an amphibious bus tour of Gothenburg. Pass by the main highlights like Fish Church, Poseidon, Liseberg, and more while hearing about the history and culture of the city from your guide.

Start the tour at Stora Teatern - a musical and theater building in the city center - where you will board the bus. Then, set off through central Gothenburg passing sights like Avenyn, Poseidon, Liseberg, Ullevi, and the Fish Church. As the surface beneath changes, the real fun begins and it is time for the bus to get wet. Hold on to your phones and cameras and prepare for some butterflies in your stomach as the 10-ton bus transforms into an amphibious boat and enters the river.

Listen as the music gets louder and a big splash of water hits the windscreen. Before you know it, you're floating. After a couple of minutes of cruising on the water, the guide will give some additional info about how the bus works. 

From the water, get a great view of the city and see big ships leaving and entering the city. After about 20 minutes in the water, head back to the pickup point passing some more incredible sights on the way.

it was really exciting! tour guide (jasper) was really chatty and funny. i learned lots about the city and had a good laugh along the way. i would say however that the bus was hard to get on and off because of the steep steps so if you have mobility anxieties i would arrive forewarned.

Thank you, guys! It was expected as one another bus tour, but turned out one of the rarest experience in my touristic life :) I admire the guide which has been truly having fun with the whole group (knowing the fact he's been doing that for years), the Spotify accompany, and the content of the journey. If I will have a chance to be in Gotenburg again I will definitely come to this tour once again (even if I know now what's goin on there). Thank you very much!!!

We had a great experience with Jasper as a tour guide and Joaquim as the driver. The stories and background were interesting and very entertaining. The music in between stories was great too. The audio was very clear throughout, even to me (I’m quite hard of hearing, so sorry if I got anyone’s name wrong above). Would definitely recommend this, it was a real highlight of the trip.
