Very well informed and entertained - With our guide on the Franziska, we had a perfect tour. Nothing came off the assembly line. Everything was presented live with many interesting facts and very funny punchlines. A delight – both in German and in extremely good, understandable English.

The trip was relaxing and... - The trip was relaxing and educational. The guide/speaker was knowledgeable and sometimes humorous. The dueling banjos of speaking in German/American, made it a bit confusing at times, but I applaud his efforts. The staff was attentive to your needs and everything including bathroom was spotless. Suggest you sit under the dome if it is a bright sunny and warm day to avoid being cooked.

Nice way to see Berlin - My wife and I did 1 hour boat tour of Berlin through Reederei Hadynski recently whilst on weekend in Berlin. Location to pick-up and drop-off is city centre close to multiple attractions. Admission fee was very reasonable. It was good size crowd and we were able to sit outside. It was a nice day to enjoy weather. Crew was very friendly and guide was informative with dry sense of humor. You see lot of the city centre buildings including multiple government related ones. You realise how damaged Berlin was during the war and interesting to know what is new and old. Fun way to see Berlin and highly recommend.
