“Nice, relaxing tour around the designated canals. The electric boat was silent. It was tricky getting it started, but after 15 minutes or So we figured it out. Don't expect to get anywhere fast, that's not what this tour is about.”
Review Gothenburg Landvetter’s Vinga Lounge for food, drinks, Wi-Fi, runway views, access rules, and whether $35 is good value.
“I’m very happy with my choice in using the Gothenburg Airport Lounge. The day staff was top notch, it was clean, and atmosphere light and friendly. Negative - the toilet is outside the lounge, also some food needed to be warmed To taste “better” - salad was yummy. All possible drinks from cold to warm. I would have liked a soup. Comfortable seating, power for laptops and wifi is also included in cost. All in all - worth the money !”
