    I was truly amazed by the complete trust that the City of Hamburg places in its residents and tourists. We never encountered any ticket or pass inspections. We used the Hamburg Card for 5 days for 4 groups of 4 people each (16 people in total).

    Take the Elbe ferries from Finkenwerder and crisscross the river into the city center. Perfect. It almost feels like being on the Grand Canal.
