A special smoking area, because due to the airstream and the inconsiderateness of the smoker, ash would be blown into his face...

There was a DJ and you could eat and drink during the trip at affordable prices. Very nice. I recommend at sunset for the views.
    • Enjoy a relaxing 2-hour cruise along the Rhine River, and see Cologne’s iconic riverfront landmarks illuminated against the evening sky.

    • Sail past the majestic Cologne Cathedral, the historic Hohenzollern Bridge, and the charming Old Town as you relax to the lounge music onboard.

    • Admire the stunning architecture of the city’s Romanesque churches like Groß St. Martin Church, St. Kunibert Church, and St. Maria Lyskirchen as you glide through the scenic waterways.

    • Personalize your cruise, which only sets sail on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, by savoring a delicious cocktail, a cool Sion Kölsch beer, or something tasty from the barbecue, as you unwind and soak in the sights.

    I had thought that there would be seats for all guests on the upper deck. At least in the great weather where everyone naturally wants to sit on the upper deck. Unfortunately, we had to stand for 2 hours.

    It is necessary to specify the dock for the boat because the meeting point was empty without indications.
