Experience the inner city of Berlin from the water during a approx. 2.¼ -hour cruise on the River Spree and see the iconic landmarks of the city.

You will board the cruise at Friedrichstraße and pass by the attractions and the modern and modernized industrial plants of the canal side. See the Mühlendammlock, the Berlin Cathedral, the Reichstag (seat of the German Parliament) and the university hospital Charité.

Discover the Regierungsviertel (Government Quarter), the Haus der Kulturen der Welt (House of the Cultures of the World), Castle Charlottenburg, the Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs, and the museum Hamburger Bahnhof, before you will cruise back to the departure point at Friedrichstraße.

Only problem I had was the guy checking tickets initially said it wasn’t a ticket, but he let me on the cruise so worked out ok in end

The service wasn’t good and we had to keep asking for updates on drinks etc. people were complaining about cold coffee. They had sold out of several items such as gluewein on a cold wet day and the cruise finished 25 minutes early. Sadly not a cruise I would recommend and do again and wasn’t value for money.

It was amazing

Organisation war sehr gut.

Un tour muy agradable por el Spree con un montón de explicaciones

Het was een mooie tocht. We hadden prachtig weer en een mooie plek met goed zicht. Uiteindelijk duurde de tocht geen 2,5 uur maar 2 uur. Groot stuk ook langs industrie en de grote weg. Niet zo interessant. Vriendelijk personeel, lekkere drankjes.
