Great Cruise - Exceptional Customer Service - Having booked through Tripadvisor when I had a problem they were unresponsive so contacted Kaiserfriedrch.berlin directly. Fantastic customer service - Thank you! The sunset cruise was relaxing and a wonderful way to see the city. Staff were friendly and the bar whilst small managed to get drinks out quickly and they are reasonably priced too. Definitely worthy of a to do list for any trip to Berlin

Nice trip - A lovely long boat trip with beautiful views to beautiful and exciting places you can only see from the river. Good service on the boat, blankets and umbrellas and the opportunity to get something to drink.

Nice tour if you want to... - Nice tour if you want to learn about the Street Art scene of Berlin and the different styles and techniques used to make the pieces and installations. We enjoyed it.

So fun! - More fun and party rather than a Romantic sunset cruse, but highly recommend! There was a live band and DJ

Great boat. Do NOT go if you are allergic to cigarette smoke. - Was a fun boat. Very cold and we were not prepared. Beware. The boat allows smoking and the smokers stood at the front of the boat smoking. Very offensive smell. We moved to the rear of the boat, then the servers sat and smoked right in front of us.

Pleasant experience - The tour was very pleasant for the most part but lacked any commentary or guide. We had hoped to learn something about the places we could see along the journey, and instead, consulted our phones a bit to determine where we were. The service in board was very pleasant and the boat was not crowded. The food and drink options were good. Safety rules were followed. Unfortunately it was a very cold windy evening and the blankets that were provided, were a big help.

Cruise into the evening, but everything else is wrong - Unfortunately, it is not a nostalgia ship as advertised. This normal excursion had nothing to do with beer evening. Actually, a misdirection of facts.

Unruly passengers and clueless crew - DO NOT RECOMMEND - 1. Unruly and drunk passengers and no one in the crew bothers to keep them in check. 2. Zero explanations by the crew in terms of where we are heading and what we are seeing 3. Absolutely filthy bathrooms - cannot use them! 4. Unwanted pictures of people being taken and again no one in the crew keeps the passengers from doing whatever they want (no matter how illegal it is) 5. Smoke filled lungs - all the seats are positioned in a manner that anyone smoking on the boat essentially ruins its for everyone else.

Would not recommend. It's... - Would not recommend. It's a lot of money for what you see. No narration on the sites you see. Drinks and food are not included in the price. Boat was very crowded.
