Why you’ll love this…
  • Navigate the river through the posh suburbs of the Hanseatic city
  • More than a tour - your guide will share their love of art history with you
  • No assigned seating so you can choose your favorite spot when you get there
What to expect

The whole diversity of the city awaits you on a journey of discovery through the winding Alster canals.

Quaint allotment gardens and unspoiled bank areas glide past you within reach. Only a short distance from the city center you can experience the green idyll of the residential areas close to the Alster.

A contrast program awaits you as you navigate the river through the posh suburbs of the Hanseatic city: here you can get a glimpse of well-kept villas, hidden parks and luxurious lofts. This mysterious side of the city can only be discovered by taking the water.
