  • To support our commitment to responsible tourism, we at Stromma have integrated eco-friendly practices to bolster the sustainability of our tours and services. There are many ways you, as our customer, can actively contribute to a greener experience, such as:

    • Show your pre-purchased online ticket or voucher on your mobile device instead of printing it
    • Follow the route on the live map online instead of taking a printed map
    • After the experience, leave the printed map back in the boat's cafe
    • Bring empty bottles and cans to designated bins instead of putting them into mixed waste bins
    • Do not throw anything to the sea - and don't let the wind do that either

    For our dedication to sustainability we have been awarded with the Travelife Certified status. This reward extends to both our Beautiful Canal Cruise and the Helsinki Sightseeing brand. Come join us in exploring the stunning Helsinki archipelago!
