Lovely relaxing trip after the previous day walking the city. Audio was clear and easy to use. Shame some passengers keep standing to take photos blocking everyone behind them (not the boats fault). I’d recommend a sign to tell people to stay in their seats so everyone can see and enjoy the experience. Well worth the money.

Excellent way to see the city while cruising on a boat. There is commentary in German as well but you can book audio guides in your language of choice.

Very nice to see Berlin from the other side, the water side. The comments and explanations were very good.

This boat tour was quite nice, however I thought I had booked a tour in English. This tour was entirely in German so I understood very little of the audio - I only saw on my way out of the boat a sign that said audio guides in other languages were available for 2 euro, which I gladly would have paid. No one seemed to have one, though. The views and time on the river were still quite nice, but if you want a specific language make sure you book one in that language or ask about the audio guide! I still enjoyed it.

Since we didn't have a lot of time and we wanted to see as much of Berlin as possible, we chose to take the ride. We really recommend it. I also enjoyed the evening ride. You get to see the sights in comfort while enjoying a glass of wine. Really recommend it!
