15 2-Hour Experiences in Hamburg Worth Booking

1.2-Hour XXL Port of Hamburg Cruise Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 6,979 reviews · 2 hours · from $47Our pick

Take a 2-hour Port of Hamburg cruise on a small ship, passing docks, locks, fish market, and skyline views of HafenCity and Elbphilharmonie.

“It is a nice two-hour tour; however, the live guide is only in German. Make sure to bring your headphones and follow the tour on the app. It is not as expressive as the live guide makes it, yet it is still very informative. It is great value, and having the smaller boat allows access to the slimmer canals in the very cool warehouse district, which is a must-see. I would go again!”

It was obvious that the German tour guide was being well received and entertaining , so we did feel quite left out . We were not offered audio guides .”

“If you don’t speak German, DO NOT take this tour. There is an informative audio recording in English that you can hear by downloading a HORRIBLE not user friendly app. The boat ride and buildings were beautiful but we wish we could head the in person guide’s commentary in English because the app was not easy to listen to.”
