Overview

Experience a 4.5‑hour guided boat tour through the Gothenburg archipelago to the iconic lighthouse island of Vinga aboard M/S Carl Michael Bellman. Enjoy a scenic 1 hour and 15‑minute journey each way with audio commentary in Swedish and English (via the onboard speaker) about the islands, history, and landmarks along the route.

Once on Vinga, you’ll have two hours to explore the nature reserve, walk the rocky coastline, swim, or visit Evert Taube’s childhood home, now a small museum. The island is famous for its nearly 30‑metre lighthouse and the historic 1889 beacon, making it one of the archipelago’s most memorable destinations.

This excursion offers a relaxing and inspiring way to discover one of Gothenburg’s true coastal highlights. You can join a guided tour of Vinga if you like for about SEK 50 (no pre-booking, payment on-site).

Please note: In strong winds or poor weather, the tour may instead visit another island in the southern archipelago.
