Highly recommended - The tour had to be changed due to weather conditions. This was plausibly explained to the customers and the replacement program was very informative. As for the guide, it can be said that he imparted sound knowledge humorously and sparklingly. Very entertaining and highly recommended.

Even in winter a great tour - We really liked the harbour tour. Despite the many pack ices, it could take place and nothing was left out - from Speicherstadt to Güterhafen. The huge container ships were really impressive and there were many interesting facts about Hamburg, its sights and inhabitants. In the ship it was pleasantly warm and thanks to the glass roofing everything was good to see.

It was worth every penny....A great tour...Definitely do it:-) - The tour was very good. Also in January in ice and snow I can recommend this tour that the ship is heated and covered. Passing so close to the cargo ships is really an experience that you don't forget. The tour guide was really great and entertained us well on the two-hour tour. A real hamburger :-)

Great harbour tour - recommended! - Informative and entertaining tour! The journey through the Speicherstadt was not possible due to weather conditions. We didn't mind as there was so much interesting to see.

We'll be back! - In the course of our stopover in Hamburg, we once again took a 2-hour harbour tour for a long time. The two hours flew by, saw a lot of Hamburg again and laughed at least as much.
