Beautiful & informative 1 hour boat trip - Informative 1-hour boat trip through the Speicherstadt and the Hamburg harbor. The guide was great, everything was explained well and with that certain Hamburg charm. The lights of the harbor, the buildings all around and the lights in the Speicherstadt created a great atmosphere for photo opportunities. A clear recommendation from us.

Beautiful tour by night… - Beautiful tour of Hamburg’s Speicherstadt and working harbour by night. Gives a unique view of the city. Elbphilharmonie - superb sight. Get there early to get your spot… and forget about queueing! With usual German attention to having a good time, you can order a beer or wine at your table, from a very genial waiter. I left this tour even more in love with Hamburg than when we set off.

Unforgettable! - It was fun! The map link on the Trip Advisor website took us to the wrong meeting place but fortunately we had left enough time. We only saw the sign to download the English audio at the end of the trip so we hadn’t a clue about what the guy was saying but we still managed to enjoy the ride. As we were travelling towards the experience we say the largest container ship in the world docking, and our ride included a close up view of it at the end. It extended the trip and was a fabulous experience.

Light ride - A very nice 1-hour harbor tour/light cruise through the Hamburg harbor at 9 p.m. Drinks were provided. The staff and the guide were very nice and friendly. Really recommended for groups and couples.

Nice lights tour - Was ok, doing it in November meant it was too cold to stay on deck but table service at the bar inside was ok. Saw a lot of the harbour workings all lit up

Misleading — beautiful lights at sunset - First of all, SUPER confusing directions for where to go. Just say “dock 5 right by the boat”! Next, the boat is NOT the one pictured— but the guy kept saying, “Oh, but this is better tour and better boat!” Well, not if you WANTED to ride in a big paddle wheel boat. Next, tour was in German, which I knew — but the app and audio in English wasn’t working. They said sorry, but that doesn’t help — so you have no idea what you’re looking at. Beautiful lights and cruise, but no idea what we saw🤣

Silence is golden - The view of the Elbe lit is magical! A such a different perspective of the river in daylight. Would that i had relative silence to enjoy it and the excellent app with such interesting and informative facts on the Hamburg harbour. But the tour guide bellowed the German version in a manner that left me feeling as though i had been verbally & physically assaulted for more than an hour. I left the boat feeling traumatised. I understood not a word, but the violence spoke volumes to me. I could not recommend this tour to anyone. I abhor violence in all forms. I would not subject anyone to such verbal violence

Very bad - It was mentioned during the booking that it’s in English but this tour is completely in German language

Only German tour guide - Sadly, we can't tell you about the tour because it was not in English nor did it provide any translation. Our tickets say English audio, but there was only German. Those around seemed to enjoy it.
