Although we have obviously caught the wrong boat, because after 1 hour was already over and we did not get to Blankenese. When scanning the booking code was also nothing said. So we have just paid more than necessary, but no matter, it was worth the trip all the time, and the live commentary was delicious, we have amused ourselves very much. With kind regards from Salzburg, Alois and Emma Rinnerthaler

Hello, we were thrilled! And we both want to make that more than clear to the fantastic captain, Elias Thiele. Already when welcoming on board, so relaxed and a professionally satisfied impression! From the first second to the end of the two hours it was a long time not so experienced pleasure on board or other events. This must be said really times, hold this man blos. Others can take a leaf out of his book. Please express our thanks to Mr. Thiele, Elga and Uwe Nowak from 27777 Ganderkesee

Experience Hamburg, a Hanseatic city that is defined by its access to water on a modern passenger ship. The cruise experience is a 2-hour long round trip that will take you through the most notable spots of importance in Hamburg. Set off from St. Pauli Landungsbrücken and marvel at the pretty skylines of Hamburg city, and the tranquil views of the bank of the Elbe river. Learn about Blankenese which houses several fishermen and captains’ homes across beautifully narrow winding alleys.

The cruise will take you past the Airbus factory and after a turn, it will take you into the container port of Köhlbrand Bridge. This bridge is a cable-stayed one that connects Wilhelmsburg Elbe Island with the motorway 7 exit of Waltershof since 1974. The journey back will offer more views of the city skyline and Elbphilharmonie as the ship makes its way back to Landungsbrücken.
