Very good, ours was the sunset sailing cruise through Lake Alster. Very good, our commander was a very experienced sailor in the arts of sailing, and the place is very beautiful and quiet. On the pier there is a restaurant and bar, with bathroom. A very relaxing walk.
Small group was perfect. Our Captain didn’t say much but we talked to the others on the boat and made new friends. Great way to end the day in Hamburg!
A very nice boat trip on the Alster at sunset. The atmosphere was relaxed and romantic, the panorama of Hamburg in the evening light just wonderful. Highly recommended for couples or anyone who wants to experience the city in a special way.
At first a lull threatened, but then the wind was enough for a very nice sailing trip. I'm sure that wasn't the last time...
despite the bad weather, we had a great time. The boat driver was very attentive and told us interesting things about Hamburg.
10/10 experience. Very relaxing and fun getting to see different parts of the city on the lake! Our guide was extremely kind and if you visit here you 100% should do this experience!!
Beautiful and relaxing end to the day. Nice conversation with other guests and guide during tour while having drink on board.
My wife and I had a wonderful time on the lake. The captain was a pro and handled the boat very well. I would highly recommend.
unfortunately we had no wind to sail. However, we could decide whether we wanted to sail anyway, consider postponing the sailing trip or cancel with full compensation. We chose the latter, and immediately got the amount refunded. Very nice skipper. Next time we visit Hamburg we will try again.
Lovely skipper who gave a nice tour of the lake and surrounds. Easy to find location with a bar at the hop on/drop off point to enjoy after. Must do!
