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.
We are now moored at Thames Quay in South Dock in Canary Wharf, London. We are open to visitors every day of the stopover, 8-12 August.
Thank you everyone who came and greeted us as we passed under Tower Bridge on our arrival to London!

On the 8th of June 2022, Götheborg headed out on a great adventure. 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.

It's been more than fifteen years since Götheborg of Sweden sailed to Asia. In June 2022, we are heading out again! In the same vein as in our history, the mission is to promote trade and create new business opportunities. Partnering with us means you will be associated with the spectacular ship, a unique platform for meetings and networking, and our mission to promote trade. Will you join us?
We have arrived in London, and we were greeted with style by the Londoners! Passing Tower Bridge at 08:30 in the morning, thousands of onlookers were lining the quaysides to see the ship. We are now moored at Thames Quay in the South Dock in Canary Wharf, and will be open to visitors during the stopover.
We are now headed for London, after four sunny and warm days in the Norwegian capital Oslo. Thank you Oslo for hosting us for a few days, and thank you to everyone who came and visited us. Oslo is the last stop in the Nordic countries before we head south on our great Asia Expedition 2022/2023.
We have arrived in Oslo, and are now moored at Vippetangen near Akershus Fortress. We are here until Sunday 31 July, and are open to visitors Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. We look forward to greeting you on board!
