It was truly wonderful! No engine noise, no smell of diesel — just gliding silently on the Spree and seeing a part of Berlin from the river! Plus, there was an audio guide for each participant, so the tour wasn't guided via loudspeaker, and a very friendly and communicative crew... everything was a real experience, and in the best weather too! Highly recommended! Claudia

Easy to find, friendly staff, love that the boat is quiet, both in terms of operation and optional commentary available on a small hand-held device, so no loudspeaker blaring. The route takes in a lot of interesting buildings and areas.

A small, cozy boat—very quiet and without a smelly engine. Unfortunately, the audio guide didn't work properly.

A great and informative boat tour.

In Berlin for only a day and you want a quick tour of the city? This boat tour is your answer! Tour Berlin city and see its highlights from the Spree River on a 2.5-hour boat tour with a multilingual audio guide.

Berlin’s famous river-side attractions on a boat tour

Board the cruise from either Oberbaum Bridge or the Fischerinsel pier, and pass by all the important sights that are visible from the water. Float under the Oberbaum Bridge, a symbol of the division between East and West Berlin during the Cold War; glide past the East Side Gallery, the largest open-air gallery in the world. Sail further west down the Spree to catch a glimpse of Museum Island, a UNESCO site that houses five important museums; and the House of World Cultures, nicknamed the “pregnant oyster” due to its distinctive roof.

Luxury cruising

Sail gently across the Spree on a solar-powered boat that is both environmentally friendly and quiet. No loud sound system or disturbing noises to interrupt your experience—your audio guides in English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Russian, and Hebrew cover literally everything you need to know about Berlin, its highlights, and its history and culture. There’s a free welcome drink waiting for you. Plus, you can buy snacks and drinks onboard for a more enjoyable experience! Feel free to move around freely on the deck so you don’t miss any of the major sights and find the best angles for those Instagram posts.
