Helsinki City and Outer Islands Guided RIB Boat Tour

Explore Helsinki on a guided RIB boat tour covering the city shoreline and outer islands at high speed.

Getting started

Board your RIB boat at the designated departure point and take your seat as the crew completes a short safety check. You will stay in the boat for the entire tour, so place any luggage or large bags elsewhere beforehand. Once everyone is ready and life-saving equipment is checked, the skipper heads out from the harbor toward open water.

City and outer islands

What to expect

This guided RIB boat tour takes you along Helsinki’s waterfront and out among the surrounding islands for a close look at the city from the sea. The route focuses on a tour of the city and outer islands, combining urban shoreline views with open-archipelago stretches.

Features

• During the tour of the city and outer islands, you travel at speed across open water and slower near the shoreline, giving you changing angles on Helsinki’s coast and island-dotted seascape.

• A guided RIB boat tour format ensures the skipper or guide can offer live commentary during the ride; a German live guide is occasionally available, depending on the departure.

• Use of whole-body floatation suit or floatation jacket is included, helping you stay dry and comfortable in changing weather while the tour operates rain or shine.

• Use of life jacket and goggles is included on board, so you have essential safety gear and eye protection without bringing your own equipment.

Wrapping up

At the end of the circuit, the skipper brings the RIB back to the original departure point, where you step off the boat and continue your time in Helsinki on your own.
