What can you see on a boat tour in Düsseldorf?

Here are the absolute highlights that you can marvel at, depending on the chosen route:

• The Media Harbor & the Gehry Buildings: From the water, you have the very best view of the "dancing", crooked facades of the world-famous Gehry Buildings. The contrast between the historic port facilities and the ultra-modern architecture is a magnificent photo motif.
• The imposing Rhine Tower: The landmark of the city majestically towers over the river. From the deck of your boat, the approximately 240-meter-high television tower appears even more massive. Especially on evening cruises, its glowing decimal clock reflects fantastically in the water.
• The Düsseldorf family of bridges: You pass under breathtaking cable-stayed bridges such as the Rheinkniebrücke, the Oberkasseler Brücke, or the Theodor-Heuss-Brücke. Experiencing these architectural masterpieces from below (from a so-called frog's-eye perspective) makes the ride particularly impressive.
• The historic Old Town & Rhine promenade: Glide quite relaxedly past the bustling Kasematten and the Burgplatz with its historic Schlossturm (castle tower). You can feel the energy of the "longest bar in the world" while enjoying the fresh breeze on deck, away from the crowds.
• The green Rhine meadows & Kaiserswerth: If your tour goes further north, you will get to know the idyllic side of Düsseldorf. You will pass wide, natural Rhine meadows and can even catch a glimpse of the time-honored castle ruins of the Kaiserpfalz in the charming district of Kaiserswerth.

What do I need to consider when renting a boat tour in Düsseldorf?

Before your experience on the water begins, you have the choice between two options when booking:

• Public boat tours in Düsseldorf: Ideal for small groups or couples. You share the boat with other, perhaps still unknown participants. This makes the excursion super sociable and is usually the cheaper option.
• Private boat tours in Düsseldorf: Perfect for undisturbed highlights among yourselves (e.g., bachelor/bachelorette party or birthday). The boat belongs entirely to your group. This makes this experience more expensive, but you enjoy absolute privacy and can book great add-ons like drinks or snacks for your activity.
