Details

See some of Berlin’s most important landmarks on a 1-hour sightseeing cruise on the River Spree. This easygoing boat tour offers a calm way to view the city’s central districts while gliding through the heart of the capital.

The cruise departs from Friedrichstraße. From here, the route follows the Spree past the Reichstag, home to the German Parliament, and continues through the modern Regierungsviertel (Government Quarter). The boat then travels toward the Haus der Kulturen der Welt, a cultural venue known for its distinctive architecture.

After turning near Lutherbrücke (Luther Bridge), the cruise passes several notable sights, including Schloss Bellevue, the official residence of the German president, the “Beamtenschlange” residential complex, and the Siegessäule (Victory Column).

Along the way, you’ll also see the striking Hauptbahnhof (Central Station), the impressive Berliner Dom, and the historic Museumsinsel (Museum Island). The route also passes Nikolaiviertel, Berlin’s oldest residential quarter, before returning to the original departure point at Friedrichstraße or Nikolaiviertel.

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!

The boat was lovely and warm. the service for drinks was prompt. The trip itself was interesting and enjoyable i would recommend to friends. My only grievance was that we were not handed the earphones to listen to the information about the points of interest. As we are Irish and english speaking. The earphones were lying in a basket by the entrance and a bit obscure. Otherwise all was good.
