Comments
The trip through the archipelago to Sodertalje, the centimetre-precise locking and the voyage of several hours through Lake Malaren to Vasteras are only some of the many highlights of this very popular tour. In Brunsbuttel an agency takes care of the registration and embarkation of passengers in the lock. Older but well maintained vessels of a German shipping company, built in the traditional Sietas shipyard in Hamburg. Currency on board €.

I liked to watch the Boson splicing a perfect eye into the moorings.

All the crew – from captain to any other crew member – were always very friendly and most helpful. Everybody always had a smile for us when we met.
The absolute highlight for us was the Karaoke-evening we celebrated...
