Tour details
Individual arrival and embarkation from 16:00. Our on-board tour guide and the crew will welcome you with a welcome sparkling wine and a first dinner. In the evening, there is the option of an evening cruise on the harbor bus (optional, can only be booked in advance, max. 60 people). Experience the seaside city from its most fascinating side in the middle of the action of the largest port and shipyard operations in the absolutely restricted areas of the overseas ports.


In the morning, you leave the port city and slowly approach the Weser metropolis. Bremen fascinates with its urban diversity, lively culture and is worth a visit at any time of year. With heart and mind, your tour guide will take you on an informative and entertaining walk through Bremen's old town (optional). All the historical sights are beautifully situated here. The magnificent town hall, the stone Roland - UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Bremen Town Musicians and the winding Schnoor district are just a few of the highlights. Facts and history are also gladly refreshed with “'n büsch'n Bremer Döntjes”! Afterwards, there is plenty of time to explore on your own.


Your ship has already set sail early in the morning. Enjoy the passing landscape during breakfast. In the morning, the cycling city of Oldenburg awaits you - a treasure trove of real city moments and little greetings from the countryside. The green city on the River Hunte with its charming old town invites you to take a tour (optional). Stroll through Germany's oldest extensive pedestrian zone or let yourself be enchanted by the Residential Palace in the middle of the city. The botanical gardens, ramparts and many other parks are always worth a visit. In the afternoon, continue your journey through the shallow river meadows. Relax on board and enjoy the tranquillity of the passing nature.


After successfully passing through the locks in the morning, continue your journey along the Dortmund-Ems Canal towards Papenburg. Known as a shipyard and maritime trade location, the Maritime Adventure World invites you on a journey through the history of Papenburg and the origins of timber and steel shipping. Discover exclusive areas of the otherwise inaccessible Meyer Werft shipyard site during a guided premium tour (optional). Continue to Leer in the afternoon.


In the morning, the “gateway to East Frisia” and a real gem awaits you. Small stores and cozy tea rooms characterize the picturesque old town. Lovingly restored ships line the museum harbor in the immediate vicinity. The makers of the crime series “Friesland”, which has been broadcast on ZDF since 2013, also appreciate the special maritime flair. Numerous places in the city serve as film sets for the detective investigations. During a tour (optional), you will be introduced to the beauty and history of the city. Then continue your journey and finally reach Emden in the evening.

Today, the whole day is dedicated to this contrasting city, where oases of peace lie alongside lively student hangouts and bustling market squares. Take a look at the Hofjes in the city center or visit the green Prinsentuin next to the Martinitoren. At 97 meters, the tower is still the tallest building in the city. An optional walking tour will give you an initial overview of this wonderful city. Afterwards, you have the whole day to explore further. Perhaps stroll along the most beautiful shopping street in the Netherlands, the Folkingestraat, in search of a souvenir, visit the fish market (opening hours on Fridays and Saturdays, as of 07.2024) or the old warehouses along the canal and the most photographed place in Groningen.
