A particularly informative sightseeing boat tour, led and presented by a very good guide. As the boat passes the sights, you get a lot of interesting information about the history and present of Berlin. Fantastic!!! The weather was superb, and the service was friendly and attentive.

A very nice cruise, great service, and our guide was very knowledgeable and gave us excellent explanations about the sights and the architecture of the houses and bridges along both sides of the river. It was a wonderful tour.
