Routes and landing stages
Experience Berlin from the water. Choose from 14 routes – from city sightseeing from Oberbaumbrücke to Müggelsee with a swim stop. Not every boat is allowed on every route (e.g. lounge rafts without the city center). We recommend the perfect combination of boat and route, including a suitable landing stage in your area.
Times & procedure
We offer day trips between approx. 8 am and 5 pm. Evening trips usually start at around 18:30 and return at 00:30 at the latest. The trip lasts a minimum of 3 hours and a maximum of 6 hours.
We plan the day according to your wishes and choice of food. When planning the tour, for example, you must bear in mind that there is no barbecuing in the city center. For 5 to 6-hour tours, we recommend a mix of 90 to 120 minutes out of town with BBQ followed by a sightseeing tour through the city.

Do I need a boating license?
No. All trips take place with a crew.
Which boats are best for exactly 20 people?
Lounge raft I (up to 20 p.) or Lounge raftII/III (if you want a little extra). For more freedom of movement: Capital City RaftI/II.
However, the Capital City Raft I and the Lounge Raft III do not sail in winter.
Are all boats allowed in the city center?
No. The lounge rafts have city center restrictions. Capital city rafts travel city routes (subject to approval/availability). We recommend the right combination.
Can we take a bath?
Yes, a short swimming stop is possible on Müggelsee tours on 5-hour trips (summer, weather and safety permitting). Swimming in the Berlin Spree is not possible in the inner city area due to a ban that is over 100 years old, heavy shipping traffic and safety risks (currents, weirs).
How does it work with the drinks?
In the high season, either a minimum bar consumption (€ 5 p.p./hour) or a flat rate for drinks (€ 9.50 / € 11.50 / € 14.50 p.p./hour) applies. Details are specified in the offer.
How early should we book?
It is best to book at least 2 weeks in advance – popular dates are booked up earlier.
What about bad weather?
Our boats, rafts and ships have a protected and partially heated interior, so that trips are possible in almost any weather and comfort is guaranteed. Only in very rare cases can it be that the skipper’s professional assessment indicates that a trip would be too dangerous.
