I liked the route—we saw a lot, and it looked really great, especially toward the end when it was getting darker. The captain, who told us a lot about what we were seeing, was also very friendly, and it was fun to listen to him. I can recommend this to anyone.

We really appreciated that, because of the weather, we were offered a heated boat. Unfortunately, it didn’t go through the Speicherstadt. Maybe the price could be adjusted accordingly! But the guys did a great job. Personal best wishes to Captain Eddi from the guests from Marzahn, and best of luck to the trainee for his exam in 1 1/2 weeks. The two guys were great

The tour guide was super funny and didn’t skimp on sharing the latest updates about the harbor! We had a great view of everything at the harbor—especially the view of the Elbphilharmonie was truly amazing :) We also loved that everyone got a chance to catch a good look at all the sights. The service was also very friendly, the drinks arrived quickly, and best of all, they tasted great! The atmosphere was really cozy and just lovely. It wasn’t too warm or too cold either—just perfectly comfortable. I can really highly recommend this to anyone visiting Hamburg.

Enjoy a 90-minute evening harbor sightseeing cruise with live German commentary, timed perfectly between daytime sightseeing and dinner.

See Speicherstadt's warehouses and the HafenCity shoreline lit up from the water, with reflections turning the harbor into a glowing city panorama.

Settle into a romantic setting on board while the crew handles tides and changes, with guaranteed execution even if parts of the route are closed.

If water levels restrict access to Speicherstadt, enjoy an alternative illuminated harbor cruise.

Choose between a barge and a ship as your vessel type when booking, so you can match the style of boat to the harbor experience you prefer.

We had a great cruise; it was very well organized, and seeing the container ships at night was a real highlight. The tour guide was excellent and explained a lot of technical details in an entertaining way. The music played during the cruise was well-chosen. All in all, it was a very successful cruise.

It was a beautiful sight to see. Very very educational. I have been in Hamburg for the past 6years and this is the first meaningful thing I ever did. Great history lesson and well informed explanation. Thanks to Headout team
