Overview

Enjoy the maritime charm on a two-hour harbor cruise through the Port of Hamburg and experience the lively hustle and bustle around the harbor during one of the daily tours. The Port of Hamburg is massive – the entire city of Cologne could easily fit inside it. It is the second-largest port in Europe after Rotterdam and impresses with its vastness. Hamburg has grown around the port, and many attractions as well as the city’s skyline are closely connected to it. Experience the contrast between modernity and history: from Elbe fishing villages and the fish market to modern container terminals and cruise ships. Discover the Reeperbahn, old sailing ships, and gigantic container vessels. On board a harbor-ready ship, you’ll get an up-close view of the gateway to the world. Sail through the historic Speicherstadt, explore the modern HafenCity quarters, and see the famous Elbphilharmonie from the water. A unique experience for every visitor!

Two hours harbour cruise

Published on Nov, 2024

Very interesting harbour cruise including Container terminal and Speicherstadt. Starting point is easily accessible near U-Bahn station.

Great way to see the harbor and experience Hamburg from the water

Published on Nov, 2024

This was a very interesting tour. The commentary is only German, however there is an app you can download which offers commentary in multiple languages. The cruise goes around the main sights in Hamburg on the water such as the philharmonic orchestra building, the Speicherstadt and some of the interesting ships on the harbor. You also get see places in the industrial harbor that you can't reach except via the water. There were some interesting container ships, military ships and mega-yachts as well. Highly recommend this tour, as it is also one of the best in terms of value for money. Other tours are either more expensive, or the ship isn't as comfortable or just too short.
