Customer reviews of tours in Berlin

The tour was amazing already I'm 21 and it was perfect for me and my boyfriend. Not too much info, just the important things. Beautifully relaxing and really great SUPER SUPER SUPER

Super nice trip. I had booked the wrong date and they were so nice to help so we could leave the next day without extra payment. Really good treatment. THANKS

Saw, booked, had fun. The booking system is really easy. Even paying with direct debit was possible. Easy to print out the ticket then it was done. The ship was great, rest rooms very clean, friendly service, ok prices for food. See you next time :-)

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.

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.

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

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!

An interesting and relaxing way of seeing some of the city's sights. Although the route - of necessity - limits what you see, it is a good way of getting an alternative and relatively "tourist free" view of such sights as the Reichstag and Museum Island. It also takes in parts of the Government areas of the city that one might not include on a walking tour with only limited time available. The online booking process was straightforward but do remember to pick up an audio guide as the commentary is in German. I forgot to do so but, to be honest, it didn't really affect our enjoyment of the cruise as even my very limited knowledge of the language was enough to allow me to follow the main points.

The organisation of the tour is really good: not only the sight was enchanting, but the stuff was nice and everything ran on time. I would recommend it to everyone whou would like to see Berlin at a glance. Great tour on the Spree|

Top !!! Content of the tour absolutely sufficient, the most important was there, well commented from very easy to understand loudspeakers.

Great if you want to see important sights quickly. The information running through the speaker automatically is really informative.

everything went flawlessly. The tour was very lovely despite the rainy weather). We'd love to come again

A very pleasant boat trip on the Spree that I can highly recommend. Charming yacht with friendly and service-minded staff.

Excellent everything, good wine and above all beautiful landscapes and very quiet

Very friendly crew, very relaxed atmosphere and very quiet due to E engine, no engine noise.

It's a nice boat, completely silent, and you see the main sights of Berlin. However, it is twice the price of most other tours, which would be fine if they didn't massively oversell the boat. If you wanted to sit outside, you are forced to sit at an angle on the front deck of the boat. It is very uncomfortable, and you can't lean against anything or stretch out. For that money I would expect everyone to be able to get a comfortable seat. The speaker was also on this deck, and people kept leaning against it or accidentally putting cushions against it, so hearing the guide talk about Berlin was also sometimes very difficult. Compared to the cheaper tours, where yes you're on a less nice boat, but you get a dedicated seat, often with a table; it just doesn't seem great value. I was a little disappointed to be honest. I took my 75 year old parents and it just wasn't a good comfortable experience for them.

Very nice and cozy. The boat has a vintage charm. It’s recently been refurbished and is of very high quality. The crew put a lot of effort into making us feel as comfortable as possible. It was perfect for our large group because we could sit together instead of being spread out at different tables (like on other boats). Highly recommend!

Was a super relaxed exclusive tour. The yacht was beautiful, the staff was nice & the drinks and their prices were also absolutely great.

It's worth putting a few euros more on the table. It was a slightly upscale boat tour. The crew was very accommodating. And so the whole thing became a special experience. When I'm in Berlin again I'll make reservations again

This was by far the best and most pleasant tour of the Spree that we have ever done. Since it is a relatively small ship, everything was very personal, and the slightly higher price was definitely justified. Absolute top tip

Great tour, in a boat which wasn’t too overcrowded. We didn’t get the best of seats. But it was comfortable. Commentary about the city’s landmarks were of an appropriate length. The staff were friendly. The music on the return length was soothing. The whole trip was very enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Just wow! A cute little boat with which you can escape from mass tourism. Instead of 300 people on the normal boats, only a few fit here, I think 35 was the maximum occupancy. There were only 8 of us today, more private tour is not really possible. The boat drives very pleasantly quietly and calmly. You can learn something about the individual stations in German and English over loudspeakers that can be heard very well. The crew is very nice and attentive, they ask if everything is OK, the music is loud enough, etc. Relaxed music was played on the way back to be able to enjoy the surroundings and impressions again. An absolute insider tip to drive here!

This ride over and over again. No matter whether on the upper deck, under the sun protection or at the top on the bow, optimal places everywhere. The staff is very friendly and a selection of cold drinks of all kinds leaves nothing to be desired. The information about the speakers is very easy to understand. After the turnaround there was decent music on the way back. The ride is of course very relaxed with an electric drive.

Awesome and very informative. Nice crew and great guide. We recommend.

Great value for money! The tour start point is easy to find, with clear instructions. The audio guide is on the boat and does not require ear/headphones. The tour was in both German and English, is entertaining and informative. The Spree tour gives you an excellent opportunity to see the sights of the city by boat and with a different perspective. The staff were friendly and helpful, and there was also an option to purchase refreshments, if desired. An excellent way to spend some time on your visit to Berlin.

It was very informative, with a good sense of humor and all the employees were very friendly.

Lovely afternoon tour with my parents, great activity for a good weather. The tour guide and the boat crew was nice. I definitely recommend it.

The boat was comfortable with good service by the bartender, good choice and fair prices. Interesting info provided by the guide, both EN & DE. One hour is exactly right for this trip, we got quite a different perspective of some unknown spectacular Berlin sites.

This cruise is also in English, which is great. Very pleasant. One of the areas on the Spree was closed when we took the tour, but nonetheless, it was a good experience.

The tour was very good. Good weather, friendly staff, drinks okay. Only our guide was very poorly understood, it's a pity.

Beautiful boat tour on the Spree. Punctual departure, friendly staff and not too crowded. The guide provided informative commentary about the sights along the river. I can recommend the boat tour.

Fun and calm easy way to view BLN from water! Also drinks and snacks onboard plus a very clean restroom!

Here you will be personally greeted by the captain. We found this little boat trip through Berlin very good. A charming and funny on-board attendant told something in German and English about bridges and buildings along the Spree. Cool drinks were served on request and the entire staff on board was very friendly from boarding to docking. For this price a clear recommendation when visiting Berlin.

There was a nice 1 hour trip, with available drinks in board (pay at the end), nice description of the landmarks, also with a local approach, jokes and popular names for such. I enjoyed the well prepared speech that matched the length of the trip, as it wasn't nor too quick, nor to slow. Very friendly staff, English soeakers. Available onboard are sun/rain umbrellas. I had a great time.

Really nice trip with the option of buying refreshments at an ok price.

Most beautiful tour in Berlin Mitte! The trip went past the Museum Island, through the government district under many bridges on a late Sunday afternoon in summer. Many dancers on the riverbank (swing, tango) and beach bars gave not only the informative content of the boat tour but also a nice Berlin feeling. Highly Recommended!

It was a great boat trip on the Spree. Nice staff and very good explanation

Very pleasant one-hour cruise around the main monuments of Berlin Possibility to eat on the boat for a reasonable price Too bad the comments were not in French

As described, a 1-hour cruise on the Spree with useful information about Berlin. You could order ice cream or a drink. Buying tickets online went smoothly and on site too. Proof of vaccination had to be shown or a negative test, but this was not noticeable on board when people were crawling so close. That was the only annoying thing. The staff was super nice and friendly.

Our boat tour was cancelled and i received fantastic help in finding availability for the next tour or either taking a voucher for something else. However after choosing to stay on the boat tour it was a lovely experience with very helpful and friendly staff. The commentary was also very clear and informative.

Great relaxing way to see the city, narration in German and English.

Nice boat tour, comfortable and good view. Drinks are a bit on the pricey side. Worth the effort!

The ride was informative. I found it a pity that some people only came shortly before departure and that the departure was delayed. Seating very comfortable. To recommend

One of the best tours we had, so relaxing, with nice coffee and hot chocolate. 100% recommended to anyone in Berlin!

Very informative, nice staff, the guide (recording) speaks a bit slurred!

It was a lovely tour, there were short explanations about the sights in and in , and additionally we booked audioguides for my parents in Russian (one time use headphones are provided, if you have a pair you could bring it with you so that you also limit the cable waste) Prices are as on any other boat tour I would say. If you are a bigger group book a table in advance or go early as there might not be a free one left.

It was a really great experience and especially the live commentators (the last bus in Berlin with them) were great. The boat ride was fun too. I would do it again and again and continue to like it.

Unfortunately, the route was changed on one day, we were not informed of this, so we waited in vain at a stop that was not used that day. Otherwise were very satisfied. The boat ride was a highlight. The guide on the boat not only described well, but also really entertained. We recommend.

The bus tour could not have been done better. Our tour guide was called Andreas, who managed the whole thing with a lot of fun and funny music. We would drive with him again and again, it was a lot of fun to listen to him.

We bought the bus and water tour option. We did the bus on day 1 (audio option which was good) and the water tour on day 2. It worked very well having the two activities on 2 days. Day 2 had live guides for the bus and boat. Nice touch! Highly recommend this tour! Great value.

Was totally good! But would recommend starting the tour on Ku'damm; partly due to the large construction site, the other entry points are not so easy to find. We found the “live guide” great, although tastes differ when it comes to humour. If you really want to see everything on the route in peace (we had booked including the ship), you should start right away in the morning. Otherwise, if you have two days, we would recommend the two-day tour to slow down.

It was good to have live tour guide . He was using English and German languages , it was too much for the guide doing back and forth both languages. Next time I would prefer the audio.

Good route to take on the 1st day of the visit to get to know the city and then decide where to go

Very good trip. Went to all the places where I wanted to go. Got off bus when I wanted. Didn't wait long for another bus. Well organized

We had chosen a bus and ship combination so far everything was good, what is difficult when changing to the ship is to find the right ship, as there are no signs.

Nice possibility to discover different parts of Berlin by bus as well as by boat. Perfect combo. If you speak several languages try to change language channels in the bus as you might get interesting facts not included in other language guide

I boarded the Yellow Line around 10h30. After 2 and half hours on the upper deck (the weather was very good) and one short stop at Gendarmenmarkt, I got off the bus without completing the tour and without taking the Boat Tour. I had a reservation later that afternoon to visit the Reichstag. I made the 1-hour Boat tour at my own expense on Friday, October 2nd, after completing my private tour of Scheuenviertel and Hackesche Höfe, not before I visited the exhibition of the Synagogue at Oranienburger Str. and having some late lunch.

Nice tour to the biggest sights of Berlin. You can get on/off at any time, bus stops are sometimes not immediately apparent and one bus driver was not so nice and verbally abused anyone who got up even 2 seconds too early... we had the 48-hour tour with a boat trip on the Spree , and we are happy to recommend this tour, as you get a nice overview of Berlin by bus and boat.

Seen all the highlights! Super fun way to see Berlin in different ways (by bus and boat). you see new things from the water.

The bus ride was great, the only drawback was that the departure of the ship was not clearly visible and thus the good experience was reduced by getting lost

The tour is excellent for getting to know the sights at once. The first bus was the best, the audio worked very well, the later ones had difficulty because the audio of the chairs we were sitting on was not working, it was not possible to follow the guide. The Portuguese language was only on the first bus. We suggest that you check the buses that the audio does not work, as the ticket price is high.

The ride was wonderful, but the music in the headphones got on my nerves in the long run. The information was a bit scarce, you had to ask a lot. E.g. at which stop you should get off to change to the ship.

Finding the DEPARTURE POINT was less good, the ladies and gentlemen on site didn't know at all how to proceed with the voucher, and the spot on Kurfürstendamm is also poorly marked. We were sent to the next location and back several times. It's a good thing that at least the driver of the bus knew about it and he was able to issue us the tickets with his device. The information on the internet is insufficient!

The most important places were approached, as expected. There seems to be a lot of competition between the providers, but this is not reflected in the cleanliness of the buses. A bus was very ratted, otherwise okay. Information about headphones in the different buses at different levels. The boat trip was - also thanks to the beautiful weather - very pleasant and a great addition.

It is definitely nice to see the city from a boat ride. There are several boats, which leave frequently. I recommend not worrying too much about booking in advance, there is a lot of offer there. All good, in general. It only gave me the impression that the guide said more information in German and did not translate everything into English.

A very good afternoon spent with my family. Relaxed cruise where you could sit upstairs or downstairs with a nice interior. You get drinks on the boat and with additional fee good quality printed fotos. Good way to see most of Berlin's attractions with no effort.

This was so sweet! There are tables, so you can sit back and relax. There is an audio guide on the ship that says some pretty funny things. Very relaxed, great way to experience Berlin!

The tour went great! Tatyana told a very interesting story, was harmonious in the story. Her work as a photographer is also top notch. The photos are beautiful and vibrant. 100% recommend!

We had a great trip. It started raining really hard at mid point and the captain moved us under a bridge. Was great fun.

Clear, easy to understand explanations with pleasant breaks in between. Thanks very much!!

We were traveling with our 9th class, the tour gave us a nice overview at the end. We recommend

Very relaxed 2.5 hour tour on the Spree with some but not too much information. We really liked it, especially the absence of the engine noise and the smell of diesel :D

Very very enjoyable, the silent solar-powered catamaran tour , presumably also better for climate , and with fewer passengers (than flat boats that look like ferries/charters ) feels really like heaven and quiet yacht . 2.5 hrs was just fine especially at end of the day (4pm start). Lots of choices of refreshments to purchase after the free welcome flavored cold soda drink! Could have a few more guide comments but all those available were interesting

Wonderful, quiet, genial trip! Great on-board hosts, drinks, bathroom, very comfortable. We would have loved more information in the audio guide: on buildings' design, architecture, history, as the other tours have. But we loved the small size and comfort of the craft!

Amazing boat trip, very lovely!!! Captain and crew provided great service and did everything with a Smile :) it was also 2.5 hours on the water with drinks and food available at the bar, great value and time for how much the tickets cost. We even got an ashtray before we even got our cigar lit :) A definite reccomendation!

It was a perfect match. The support on board was great. The catamaran glides silently over the Spee, so that you could understand the audio guide very well. All of our questions were answered precisely and in detail. We can only recommend this trip.

It was a very nice and relaxing ride and the staff was super friendly and attentive. Great route and just the right time at 2 1/2 hours.

The boat wasn't a catamaran. It was OK. I would bring food and drinks as there was not much on the boat. The audio comments were limited so it was not clear what we were seeing.

Punctual departure on a modern boat, which is kept in top condition by the very nice crew. Nice welcome drink, other drinks available onboard for a fee. Since we had already done the hop on hop off bus tour with countless information, the explanations were completely sufficient. Chilled atmosphere and tour, in my opinion much better than the overcrowded typical sightseeing tours. Any time

A great crew who gave us a very nice time on the Spree. A successful alternative to the well-known tourist boats on which many more people are. The catamaran itself is also a great ship. Highly recommended if you want to experience a special boat trip. At this point, THANK YOU again.

Great experience. Very enjoyable. Would be lovely with some music, but over all really enjoyed it.

Totally recommended, all seats are outside! Small, well-stocked bar and unbeatable for the price, since it takes 2.5 hours to get there. The audio guide gives some interesting information here and there and otherwise you can just enjoy the ride and see Berlin from a different angle. We thought it was great :)

It was quite an experience and will definitely do it again. I recommend!

The boat trip declared as an evening trip is scheduled far too early (7:30 p.m.) at the beginning of July(!). It was only shortly before the end of the journey that twilight set in, so that we did not, or hardly, enjoy seeing the area illuminated in the evening. The route should at least go as far as Charlottenburg Palace or be offered as a circuit! The AudioGuide system often had dropouts due to low battery capacity and takes some getting used to, especially for older guests! (The device must be held close to the ear.) During the journey, it would be better to use a loudspeaker system to provide direct sound reinforcement in the ship's cabin. The crew and bar staff are courteous and friendly. The ship makes a good impression. Solar electric drive top! "Onboard" drinks => very high prices!

Highly recommended!!! Not too crowded like other boat tours we've done with other providers, small but yours is the motto here and they really live up to that. There was an Aperol as a welcome gift and the selection of drinks is really impressive. The two were sooo super friendly we would book again immediately.

Nice trip over the Sprre, with interesting audio commentary, which could have been a bit more lavish. Nice team on board.

It was a really nice evening trip. The reception and service was impeccable and very nice. Always my pleasure.

Relaxing boat trip with a cocktail to start. Audio guide could have given more info. If you go on this trip which I’d recommend sit at the back of the boat so you get the best lighting for photos and the sunset
