Full description
Meet our crew at Café Marina Bay, Kanavaranta 4, 00160 Helsinki. Depart after full passenger equipments and explore the vast archipelago located east of the capital. Discover some of the 170,000 islands by boat as your guide provides more information about local nature and wildlife. See the beautiful islands as we cruise and speed into the archipelago. Near the outskirts of the archipelago, reach the recreational island where you will disembark the boat and go ashore. Explore the island on a short walking tour and learn more about local flora and fauna. Overlooking the sea, hear more about how the archipelago developed after the last ice age. Then, enjoy a snack lunch outdoors if the weather allows. After lunch, enjoy some free time to explore the island. Visit the public sauna for a bath, swim in the sea, or enjoy the peace and tranquillity of your surroundings. Finally, hop back on the boat for the journey back to Helsinki. Drop-off is at the same location from where we started.

Everything about this activity was wonderful. From the guide to the equipment, boat, lunch and sauna on an uninhabited island, we felt safe, comfortable and cared for way, way above expectations. Ollie (excuse spelling) is a superior guide and even extended our trip so we could enjoy the day to the max!

If you're in Helsinki I 100% recommend you do this! Amazing experience and a fantastic way to see Helsinki's archipelago 😊 Excellent service from start to finish, through booking, going on a hike, to being on the RIB itself. Outstanding attention to details and great commentary about archipelago and Finland in general. Zipping across the sea at high speed was an exhilarating experience! The crew on board was very helpful, fun and friendly ❤️ Thank you guys for this wonderful adventure and unforgettable memories!

An excellent experience, Leiv and Olli were super friendly, the RIB part was fun, we stopped twice for some narration of historical events and information about some islands, the stroll on the island was awesome & the weather was just PERFECT. We held the ax & chopped the wood, started a fire, cooked a salmon soup and had a lovely meal on the shore. We also were served a Finnish dessert that ended the trip greatly.
