Three hours on the Spree and the Landwehr Canal — simply wonderful. The trip under the Oberbaumbrücke and past the government district was my personal highlight. The live presentation was interesting without being overloaded, and with the audio guide, you could simply switch off and enjoy the view. There were drinks on board and the atmosphere was relaxed.

The boat trip from Friedrichstraße was a real highlight of my stay in Berlin. Even the start on the banks of the Reichstag with a view of the historic facades was impressive. During the trip along the Spree, the audio guide provided exciting information about the sights — from Museum Island to Berlin Cathedral and Charlottenburg Palace Gardens. I particularly liked the fact that you could experience Berlin from a completely new perspective, far away from the hustle and bustle of the streets. The ship was very comfortable, the staff friendly and attentive, and the culinary offerings were also convincing. The duration of just over two hours was perfect to see a lot and still come back relaxed. For visitors to Berlin, families or groups, I can fully recommend this tour — it's really worth it!
