Crociera panoramica sulla Sprea a Berlino a bordo di uno yacht di lusso (1-Hour Cruise on the Electric Fitzgerald)

La tua esperienza

Sali a bordo di una crociera di 1 ora su un autentico battello storico del 1908 o un elegante yacht elettrico dallo stile classico. Lo stesso itinerario delle tradizionali crociere cittadine, ma con molti meno passeggeri e raffinati interni in mogano.

Per cominciare

L'MS Hemingway parte dall'Anlegestelle Paul-Löbe-Haus, tra il Reichstag e il fiume, un molo davanti al quale la maggior parte delle persone che visitano Berlino passa senza nemmeno accorgersene. Il Motor Yacht Fitzgerald salpa, invece, dal molo FLAGSHIP.BERLIN presso il duomo di Berlino. Entrambi sono facili da trovare: il molo dell'Hemingway si trova tra il Marschallbrücke e il Kronprinzenbrücke; il molo del Fitzgerald si trova tra Am Lustgarten e Friedrichsbrücke. Niente folla, niente code.

Cosa ti aspetta

L'itinerario include il castello di Berlino, il Nikolaiviertel, il Tränenpalast, il lungofiume del Reichstag, la sede della Cancelleria federale e l'Haus der Kulturen der Welt. È lo stesso di una classica crociera cittadina di 1 ora, ma su una barca che può ospitare da 35 a 75 persone (invece che 160), con tavoli individuali e servizio bevande al tavolo, anziché panche e file al bancone. L'MS Hemingway conserva ancora il originale salone in mogano e ottone realizzato nel 1908, mentre il Motor Yacht Fitzgerald dispone di un motore completamente elettrico dal 2024, con zona coperta e riscaldata a poppa e ampio ponte in teak. Per chi desidera un'esperienza diversa ma con lo stesso itinerario, il tour serale di 75 minuti (solo a bordo del Motor Yacht Fitzgerald, max 30 persone, partenza alle 18:00) sostituisce il commento con musica lounge, per un'atmosfera più rilassante.

The River Spree has been central to Berlin's history and development for centuries. Originally a trade route, the Spree facilitated the growth of Berlin as a commercial hub. Over time, the river became a vital part of the city's infrastructure, supporting industry and transportation. During the Cold War, the Spree marked part of the divide between East and West Berlin, with sections of the river running through the heavily guarded border zone. Today, the River Spree symbolizes Berlin's reunification and revitalization. The riverfront has been transformed into a vibrant area with modern architecture, cultural attractions, and recreational spaces. Cruises along the Spree offer a unique perspective on this rich history, showcasing how the city has evolved over time. From its medieval origins to its modern transformation, the Spree remains an integral part of Berlin's identity.

The Berlin River Spree cruises generally operate daily, with varying departure times depending on the season. During the peak summer months, cruises are more frequent and often extend into the evening. In the off-season, the schedule may be reduced. Check the daily schedule upon booking to align with your itinerary.

The best time to take the Berlin River Spree cruise is during the warmer months, from late spring to early autumn, when the weather is pleasant. Evening cruises are particularly enchanting as many of the city's landmarks are beautifully illuminated.

The shoulder seasons (April-May and September-October) provide a balance of good weather and fewer crowds.

During the 1-hour Berlin River Spree Cruise, you'll witness a variety of iconic landmarks and architectural masterpieces. Glide past the impressive Reichstag building, home to the German Parliament, and admire its stunning glass dome.

As you cruise along Museum Island, a UNESCO World Heritage site, you'll be surrounded by five world-renowned museums housing an array of art and artifacts. The cruise also offers views of the modern Government District, showcasing contemporary architecture and the heart of German politics. The Nikolaiviertel, Berlin's oldest residential area, can also be seen from the river. Each sight is accompanied by informative commentary, providing insights into the history and cultural significance of these landmarks.

It's advisable to book your tickets in advance, especially during peak season, to secure your spot. Arrive at the departure point at least 15-20 minutes before the scheduled departure time. Consider bringing a light jacket or sweater, as the weather on the water can be cooler. Don't forget your camera to capture the stunning views of Berlin's landmarks. Some cruises offer refreshments and snacks onboard, while others may not, so check in advance. Many cruises provide commentary in multiple languages. Check if your preferred language is available.

Follow the instructions of the crew at all times. Remain seated when the boat is in motion. Avoid leaning over the railings. Dispose of trash in the designated receptacles. Smoking may be restricted to certain areas on the boat. Be mindful of other passengers and keep noise levels to a minimum. No outside alcoholic beverages are allowed on board.
