Full description

Experience the beauty and history of Hamburg's waterways on a sightseeing cruise. Pass through narrow channels and under old and new bridges. Take in views of the Speicherstadt warehouse district and cruise by the barque ship 'Peking.'

Meet your guide at the tour partner's shop and board the comfortable and spacious ship. Begin your sailing adventure through Hamburg's old free port area where the contrast in the city between the old and the new architecture is most apparent. 

Sail thorugh imposing rows of red-brick warehouses that store carpets, coffee, and spices in the Speicherstadt district. Listen to onboard commentary or use your audio guide to hear about the facinating history of this Hanseatic city. 

Glide through the modern face of the metropolis as you reach HafenCity, the contemporary residential and business district of Hamburg. Capture pictures of the waved-roof of the Elbphilharmonie Concert Hall.

Take a short detour to the steel-hulled Peking ship to view its stunning 4 masts. Return to your meeting point at the end of the cruise.

Es war alles Bestens! Es wäre jedoch sehr hilfreich, wenn ihr in eurer Beschreibung klar angebt, dass es KEINEN GetYourGuide Guide gibt! Die sehr informativen und sehr angenehm unterhaltsamen Infos und Kommentare wurden durch den Schiffsführer gegeben! Außerdem wäre es zur besseren Orientierung für jeden hilfreich, zumindest in der App die Nummer des Anlegers -quasi der Haltestelle- anzugeben! Wir haben auf den versprochenen Guide gewartet -der natürlich nicht kam, da es ihn nicht gibt- und dann beim Verkaufskiosk von Alstertouristik nachgefragt. Antwort: "Erklärungen gibt's auf'm Schiff!" Frage: "An welcher Nummer bitte?" Antwort: "Na, Nummer 5, muss doch da stehen!" Das geht doch sicher besser! 😉

Am Jungfernstieg gestartet ging es durch 2 Schleusen rein in die Speicherstadt. Allein das war schon sehr sehenswert. Durch die Speicherstadt ging es dann ein kleines Stück raus in den Hafen eh es dann wieder Retoure ging. Alles in allem eine sehr interessante und lustige Fahrt. Den Stern Abzug nur weil die Schleusen schon einiges an Zeit fressen... Sonst zu empfehlen.

Sehr unterhaltsamer Guide auf dem Boot. Viel Sehenswertes und Informationen auf kurzweilige Weise präsentiert. Da die Fahrt am Jungfernstieg beginnt, werden zwei Schleusen passiert, bis es in die Speicherstadt und auf die Elbe geht. Auf alle Fälle zu empfehlen!
