The historical information on the construction of the Elbphilharmonie. I liked the quick admission and the great view. Unfortunately, there was no insight into the concert halls.

First the captain was a half hour late which interferred with our plans, we still were able to enjoy the ride. The online audio in english is not available until next year, so we were guided in German and no one understand nothing. Oh well, the sights were pretty. Lastly we thought we were going in the cannals as it is a small boat, however no where upon booking was there mention of tides. So because of low tide we stayed in the main harbor which was far less interesting to us. Otherwise for the price, the boat is comfortable and could be highly recommended if not for these few things mentioned above.

Die abwechslungsreichste, informativste, lustigste und einfach beste Führung für die Elbphilharmonie, die ich je hatte! Luca ist ein wunderbarer Tourguide, dem man ewig zuhören könnte! Super interessante Details und Infos, die man sonst nicht alle zu hören bekommt. Nächstes Mal in Hamburg unbedingt wieder! Vielen Dank!

Experience two of Hamburg's must-visit attractions, the Elbphilharmonie and the Hamburg Harbour, while saving time and money.

Elbphilharmonie Plaza Guided Tour

Your exploration begins at Baumwall subway station where you'll meet your guide. As you approach the Elbphilharmonie, look at its glass facade, resembling a giant wave about to crash onto the shore. Together, you'll delve into the Elbphilharmonie's story, a modern marvel nicknamed the "Elphi" by locals. Skip-the-line access whisks you past the crowds, and soon you'll be gliding up the world's longest curved escalator, offering a preview of the harbor panorama. Your guide will share details about the building's design and construction challenges, including the special vineyard-shaped acoustic features in the concert hall.

Hamburg Harbor Cruise

Set sail on a 1-hour cruise through the historic Hamburg harbor, the largest port in Germany. Choose between a comfortable passenger ship or a traditional barge. Both options offer excellent vantage points as you sail past the landmarks. You'll witness the scale of container terminals, a testament to Hamburg's role as a global trade hub. The red-brick warehouses lining the Speicherstadt canals, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offer a glimpse into Hamburg's maritime history. See the Cap San Diego, a cargo ship that's now a museum. Your skipper's live commentary in German, with multilingual audio guides available, will bring the harbor's past and present-day operations to life.
