Activities in Göteborg

Börjessons
Börjessons operates most sightseeing tours in and around Göteborg. From June to August there are one-hour city bus tours (adult/child around Sk120/around Sk60), leaving regularly from outside Stora Teatern, across the canal from the tourist office, but perhaps the most popular way to pass time in Göteborg is to take a boat cruise on the Göta älv, or further afield to the sea. From May to September Börjessons' Paddan boats tour the canals and harbour from Kungsportsbron, near the tourist office.
The 50-minute tours (adult/child around Sk95/around Sk60, family around Sk250) depart regularly from 10:00; tours after 15:00 are free for Göteborg Passholders.
