A peaceful and romantic journey on the Göta Canal, joining the North Sea and the Baltic, is a journey through Swedish history,
dating back to 1869! Cruise down the Göta Canal,
one of the World's most impressive waterways, stretching across Sweden, linking Göteborg in the west and Stockholm in the east. The canal route passes the archipelagos of thousands of islands and through 65 locks. With many stops en route, this leisurely trip takes you past fortress ruins, medieval cloister, Royal Palaces, 12th century churches, picturesque hamlets and lush Swedish forests. Göta Canal is member of the Romantik Hotels and Restaurants, and offers some of the finest cuisine in all of Sweden. The captain and crew are Swedish.
In 1998, the Göta Canal was awarded the distinction of " International Historic Civil Engineering Landmark". Among the 25 historic buildings that have received this award are the Eiffel Tower, the Statue of Liberty and the Golden Gate Bridge.
