For anyone not speaking German I'd give this a miss. We worked out the audio guide about half way through the trip and it was really poor anyway. Pleasant cruise down the canal but even the points of interest were very mundane.Marianne

Unfortunately, you could not hear or understand the tour guide well on the ship (the further away you sat!) Suggestion: Tour guide sets (tour guide has a transmitter with microphone and group receiver with earphones) Otherwise the tour was very nice.
