We had a great time on the boat! Was really easy to drive- perfect way to spend a Sunday morning! Would definitely reccomend if you’re visiting Berlin for a few nights.

We had a really nice experience with GoBoat! We rented the boat for three hours and it was such a fun and relaxing way to explore. The boat isn’t very fast, so it’s good to plan enough time to make your way back, but that just added to the laid-back vibe. The staff from the company were super friendly and helpful, which made the whole experience even better. Would definitely recommend!

My husband and I hired a boat for an hour and we had a lovely time on the water. Max was very helpful and friendly and gave us good clear instructions on how to sail the boat. We brought a picnic with us and had a nice relaxing trip. 😁
