Interesting cruise on DE Spree! - We have made DE 2,5 lasting cruise with Reederij Bruno Winkel. You can sit below deck or above deck. During the DE ns canal cruise people regularly come to ask if you want something to drink or eat. The offer is great: pizza, ice cream, drinks. During the DE ns cruise you will see many building EN and there is a clear explanation in both German and English. There are 2 storage places: Reichstagufer or Charlottenburg. This means that there is therefore a stop during the DE ns cruise.

A Great Hour on the River Spree - Very well organised and a nice relaxing hour on the River Spree. All staff members were extremely friendly and very hospitable. Drinks onboard were a reasonable price and served with a smile. The cruise itself takes in all the main sites of Central Berlin which run alongside the river. Informative information given via loudspeaker on the boat. An hour was just the right amount of time. We were worried about exchanging electronic ticket for a physical ticker after reading some reviews. The process couldn’t be simpler and the exchange point is literally right next to entrance point. Would highly recommend.

City water sailing - The tickets need to be collected from the kiosk, Viator sends voucher on the app which is not a ticket.

- Apologies for the extensive delay as it took almost a year to have data recovered off a failed hard drive. A group of us went on this trip on August 23, 2024. The check in process was very efficient. Boarding was decent. The seating is chairs around a table, and you sit were ever you like. There were a few tables that had been reserved. The boat takes you down the Spree River for about an hour then turns around and takes you back to the dock. A server comes by, and you can order drinks, which was nice. There is a guide who points out points of interest along the way. This was a nice relaxing trip, that is worth trying.

A good experience - The boat was fine. It was disappointing that commentary in English often happened after we had passed the site, so we didn’t feel like we learned as much as we could have

Beautiful scenery from the water - It was a nice trip along the river on a beautiful day. The ‘guides’ didn’t really engage with us at all though. I appreciate the need to have audio in different languages but barely a hello or goodbye, just a request for a tip at the end.

Mechanical Problem - The boat had mechanical issues and the tour was cancelled. I had talked to the owners via WHATSAPP two hours earlier and this wasn’t mentioned. Disappointing.
