The staff were very very friendly and the table service was very good. The length of the tour was great and we learned a lot about the city just from that tour.

The 1-hour city cruise from Berlin Mitte was a fascinating experience, worthy of five stars. Departing from Friedrichstraße, this tour offers a unique perspective of the city from the water. Live commentary, full of historical details and cultural anecdotes, along with the option of an audio guide, enrich the journey, making this tour not only relaxing but also educational. Ideal for those looking for an enjoyable and in-depth introduction to Berlin's history and architecture.

The DDR Museum is always worth a visit. I have my grandchildren from Munich in Berlin and it was their wish to go there 👍 in the 10th grade they just dealt with the GDR, which I think is incredibly good 👍👍👍

Positive: - Online ordering and payment possible - Good overview of the living situation in the GDR at that time - Good selection of exhibits Negatives: - App to display the ticket could not be installed - Exhibition unfortunately very full, therefore many exhibits not accessible - A little bit missing the "red thread" in the exhibition

This attraction is a must for history enthusiasts and offers a deep understanding of life in East Germany.

Berlin City Cruise

After your visit to the DDR Museum, board a 1-hour cruise on the River Spree to witness the city's best sights from a different perspective. Cruise past some of the city's major attractions, including the Reichstag, the Government District, the House of World Cultures, Bellevue Palace, and the Victory Column. With an audio guide available in various languages, learn about historical and cultural attractions like the Berlin Cathedral, Museum Island, and more.
