We got lucky with our timing as there were only 8 passengers on the barge so there was plenty of room to walk about the deck, at other times I saw these boats full of people! The captain’s commentary was funny, at least what I understood – note that it’s German-only. We were taken round the docks and got close some interesting vessels, as well as got great views of the notable buildings along the banks. The main attraction for me was getting very close to a giant container ship as it was being (un)loaded. It makes you think how large scale these operations go. Time and money well spent, would recommend to anyone interested to learn about the docks and the surrounding area.
