The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance. Cleaning, tourist tax, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are billed at the base — we confirm the full breakdown when you request a quote.
Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.
Perfect for groups This 12-metre motor boat sleeps up to 10 across four cabins, making it ideal for families or friends wanting to explore Sweden's waterways together without breaking the bank. At €1,750 per week, it's genuinely affordable for a group split.
Practical Swedish cruiser The 2019 Naviga Nordica is built for Scandinavia's inland waterways, expect solid, no-fuss engineering rather than glamour. Key features like the bow thruster make single-handed manoeuvring easier, and the swimming platform is a genuine bonus for summer cruising through Sweden's lakes and canals.
Excellent value proposition A modest €1,000 deposit and straightforward weekly rate signal honest pricing with no hidden surprises. For international guests flying into Stockholm or nearby, this represents strong value if you're after a relaxed, self-catering multi-day cruise rather than a luxury experience.
One realistic caveat The boat's primary strength, sleeping 10, means cabins will feel compact; this works brilliantly for active families but less so if anyone expects spacious berths. Confirm the base location and transfer logistics from your nearest airport before booking, as Gota Kanal Charter's exact location will affect your arrival logistics.
