Yacht Sailing After Work Tour of Hamburg Harbor
Description
As my guests you will have the unique opportunity to discover Europe's third biggest harbor on board of a modern 42' sailing yacht. We will make maneuvers just in front of the Elbphilharmonie (The iconic concert hall of Hamburg), cruise along the maritime skyline and see the biggest container ships in the world from very close! As a true Hamburg resident and passionate sailor, I will tell you things you wouldn´t expect about the port of Hamburg while you are enjoying the winds and tides. We will try to present the content of our tours in English. However, there is no entitlement to this. In any case, the entertainment value is always high!

What a great experience, this “After Work” trip! It starts right at the tree wall and then sails relaxed down the Elbe. We had fantastic weather: Sunshine and enough good wind to cruise relaxed to altitude Dockland. Even if you have already made many harbour tours, or taken the 62 to Finkenwerder, this trip is a completely different experience, especially since you can also lend a hand on board if you like. The group size is very pleasant and our skipper (Fred) was just likable and funny. Clear Recommendation for closing time! 😀
Weather / boot / skipper / scenery were just exceptional on the Elbe today. Highly recommend this +/- 90 min relaxing sailing trip.
It was a nice tour - unfortunately slight lull - our skipper really gave everything that we were clear to the neck on the return tour (at the height "beach pearl").....back we went with the tail. In the best of sunshine. That's great. Döntjes was free and so were Chuck Norris sayings.
The only criticism would be that unfortunately there was very little wind and only little sailing possible. Of course, this is not a real criticism, who can influence this. A very nice skipper who can also tell a lot about Hamburg including maybe some sailors yarn. Those who want to help with setting sails etc. are welcome, those who do not have to. All in all a wonderful end to the day and recommended from my side in any case.
Ja der Wind das himmlische Kind! Petrus haben wir tatsächlich als einzigen nicht unter Kontrolle 😘. Ansonsten freuen wir uns aber sehr darüber dass es dir so gut gefallen hat. Danke für deine Bewertung. Lieben Gruß, Holger
I took part in the tour as part of a Meet5 event. We had great weather, it could have been a bit more wind. We were a very nice group. Our skipper has told a lot of stories. Whoever wanted to get involved. The tour is a really nice change after work. Experience Hamburg very relaxed from the water side. Gladly again 👍
we were on request very close to the Peking ship and were well entertained about Hamburg sights ,a nice round and experienced nice skipper
Despite the severe storm just before, we set sail in light rain. The weather cleared up and we had a great tour with Sebastian. It was also great that I could steer the boat to Finkenwerder. Thanks for that!
Das "Unwetter" hatten wir dank der zuverlässigen Wettervorhersage immer im Blick. So konnten wir es vor Antritt des Törn durchziehen lasse. Danke für Deine Bewertung. Wir freuen uns sehr darüber! Liebe Grüße, Holger
A very nice tour with a very friendly and competent skipper on a well maintained boat. I'm sure I'll do it again!
Vielen lieben Dank für deine Bewertung. Wir freuen uns schon jetzt auf ein Wiedersehen an Bord der Elbsegelei. Liebe Grüße, Holger
We booked the 2-hour after-work tour as a team event (10 people) and were more than thrilled! Highly recommended! From booking to advance communication to the sailing tour, everything worked wonderfully and the team was always available to answer questions. As skipper, Holger finds the right balance between setting the direction and staying in the background. It was definitely not our last tour with Elbsegelei.
A different kind of harbor tour! After setting off, we first went past the Elbphilharmonie to the Hansahafen, where we set sail in the shadow of the four-masted barque Peking. We then sailed down the Elbe in a fresh wind past the fish market and the Oevelgönne museum harbor to Finkenwerder. From there we went back to the sports harbor on Baumwall. The atmosphere on board was very relaxed and Holger is not only an extremely competent skipper, who impressively demonstrated competitive sailing to us during a detour to the park harbor, but also an entertaining entertainer who has a lot to tell. A sailing tour with him through the harbor is an impressive experience and the time flew by. We are left with many new impressions of the harbor and the Elbe that a conventional barge trip certainly cannot convey.
