About This Tour
Welcome to the most popular and traditional harbor tour in the port of Hamburg. On board our ships, we take you and your companions to the “big boats” and the impressive cruise ships that travel the entire world from Hamburg and always find their way to us, “home”, in the port. We will take you close to the modern and highly frequented loading bridges of the container terminals, show you the tide, which influences so many things in Hamburg, and take you into the Speicherstadt, HafenCity and of course the popular Elbphilharmonie. Our captains give free rein to their charm and wit and entertain you with excitingly packed expert knowledge about the various sights in the port of Hamburg. In 60 minutes you will not only learn what you know, but also new things about the port, the people of Hamburg, the ships, the shipyards and perhaps one or two celebrities.
