take this boat tour

Published on Apr, 2024

This was one my best experiences in Hamburg. I was impressed with all of the activities taking place in the harbor. I did not need to understand German to know what I was looking at.......

Perfect for historical knowledge and experience

Published on Feb, 2024

The city has such a rich history that is thoroughly explained and highlighted all throughout the tour. There is an app for English speakers to listen to as they take the tour. The app was a bit out of order, but easy enough to navigate. They offer inside seating or up on the back deck. Overall, it was the highlight of my time in Hamburg during a day stop on a cruise. Lovely walk from the cruise terminal to get to the port, with a stroll through the city's famous tunnel. I was also able to visit some of the places that we visited while in the harbor.

Fun experience but only in German

Published on Jan, 2024

The narrator was very entertaining. The narration was in German though so one person in their group had difficulty understanding. There was an app to download to get it in English but we didn't have time to do that before we left on the trip.

A great way to get a feel of this great city

Published on Nov, 2023

Despite the November weather, we had a great time. The ferry was warm, and the large windows allowed an excellent view. The English audio tour was inevitably more limited than the live one (in German) as, being pre-recorded, it could not react to the current events - the particular ships on the water etc. I should perhaps have realised how huge the harbour was. This was an excellent introduction to Hamburg

Very good

Published on Nov, 2023

Wonderful experience , the tour was so nice with full explanation about the harbour and the ships, was able to take look at the container terminals and the cruise ship like so near
