★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 1,767 reviews · 2h 30m · from $41Our pick

Cruise Berlin’s Spree on a quiet solar catamaran, with a welcome drink, multilingual audio guide, small groups, and views of major landmarks.

“Getting the opportunity to see a vast amount of history is a great way to see a city. This trip gave you an audio guide in the language of your choice. With this you got to see and hear the history surrounding the river. The boat was very clean and the staff onboard was friendly and strived to meet any requests that you had. With a bar onboard it was a bonus that let you enjoy a cocktail while cruising the river. I highly recommend this to anyone coming to or living in Berlin. It was a great value and an incredible way to spend some time in the city.…”

6.Full-Day, Half-Day, or Sunset Sailing Experience

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 174 reviews · 30 minutes - 7 hours · from $86

Sail the Baltic Sea from Rostock on a half-day, full-day, or sunset yacht trip with skipper Kai, coastal views, and hands-on sailing.

“Skipper Kai ist toll! Als nicht erfahrene Seglerin konnte ich wunderbar von seinen Erläuterungen profitieren. Kai ist superentspannt und kann sehr gut erklären und nimmt sich auch viel Zeit für Nichtsegler. Man fühlt sich extrem sicher bei ihm und er weiß, was er tut. Ich mochte seine Art. Und natürlich, dass er uns immer wieder das Boot hat steuern lassen. Wir hatten einen Traumsegeltag auf einer großen Yacht. Wenn das Charterunternehmen jetzt noch Getränke oder zumindest Mineralwasser für seine Gäste bereit hielte, wäre das eine nette Servicegeste und dem Preis angemessen.”
