Overview

If you are travelling on a cruise ship to the port of Kiel and have only one day on shore, let us take you on a fascinating, all-encompassing journey to Hamburg! Hamburg is second largest city in Germany after Berlin and it is one of the most beautiful and exciting cities in Europe. It became a well-known tourist destination due to its wild, red light district but is now attracting a more discerning clientele with its modern architecture in the form of the Elbphilharmonie, Speicherstadt, and the Hafencity, not to mention the canals, Alster, stunning Rathaus and high end shopping. This shore excursion is adjusted to each ship’s docking times and starts promptly after your vessel’s arrival, returning with plenty of time to spare before its departure. Our expert team has been organizing these tours for nearly a decade. We have never missed a cruise ship’s departure and imparted our knowledge and enthusiasm for our unique and beautiful city to thousands of satisfied passengers!

Published on Oct, 2024

Matt was an Awesome tour guide, very knowledgeable about the history of Hamburg. We also got turned around and lost the group amount other groups passing each other. We contacted the service and Matt came back to get us. Thanks Matt!!

beautiful city

Published on Jul, 2024

For a while now I've seen very high opinions about Hamburg but didn't really have time or motivation to plan such trip. As it turned out my laziness really paid off because we went on a perfect guided city break! With plenty of time for ourselves we came back with ton of beautiful pictures and amazing memories.

Great day in Hambur

Published on Jun, 2024

We're a couple from Poland and our day in Hamburg was absoultely great! We had such a cool day exploring and soaking up the vibes. The old streets like Deichstraße were charming, and finding the Beatles monument on Reeperbahn was a highlight. The Rathaus was stunning too. Plus, the tour was super well-organized, which made everything smooth and enjoyable. Definitely a day to remember in this lovely city, we're gonna come back 100%!

an unexpectedly good choice

Published on Jun, 2024

I didn’t expect that Hamburg would be so beautiful. We spent a week near Kiel, so we decided to buy a trip to Hamburg. It was a good choice, the trip was great, and I really fell in love with Deichstrasse. We had a lot of time on our own so I could explore architecture of the city a little bit better, but also the tour-guided part was really fun.

All encompassing your

Great guide ! He was from LA and has lived in Hamburg for years. See everything from where the Beatles played to cathedrals. Good way to see Hamburg if time limited.
