Götheborg of Sweden is the world's largest ocean-going wooden sailing ship, and she will create great attention wherever she goes. We are now on a great expedition to Asia! During a two year adventure, we are sailing in Europe in 2022 and will continue to Asia in 2023.
After just a very short trip, we have now arrived in Monaco. On board, we have a 2.4 meter high elephant sculpture that we are delivering to HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco. The elephant is a gift from the non-profit organisation The Perfect World Foundation. A very different sight!
We are moored at Quai Reiner III, and will be open to visitors 5–6 October. For this stopover, tickets can only be bought on site and we will not be able to accept card payments.
We have station guiding on board, which means that the ship deckhands are stationed throughout the ship to answer questions in English. The visit takes about 45 minutes to an hour.
Seventeen years ago, 2005–2007, Götheborg sailed to Asia and back – and now we're heading out again on a great voyage and adventure – the Asia Expedition 2022/2023!
Come on board and visit the ship! Learn about the history of the East India Companies and the adventures of the original Götheborg that sailed three times to Asia. Hear modern tales of sailing an 18th century ship, and about the exciting expedition to Asia. Feel the authentic atmosphere, including the smell of tar, and listen to everything from captivating stories, to the tremendous art of shipbuilding.

Instead of heading straight from Nice to Valletta as planned, the route has been changed and the ship is now also making a short stopover in Monaco. However, it is not just a regular stopover: It will include the spectacular delivery of a 2.4-meter-high elephant sculpture to H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco.
We have some great news! We will make a short, but sweet visit to Monaco. This means that we will leave Nice on 4 October instead of 6 October. We will be in Monaco 4–6 October and will be open to visitors 5–6 October. Welcome on board!
Tuesday 20 September we sailed out of Málaga, after almost a full week in the harbor in the city center. The days here has been amazing with lots of interested journalists and visitors on board. Next stop is Nice, France!
