What a lovely time we had crusing down the Spree. The sun was shining and we saw lots of Berlin's beautiful architecture whilst cruising along as well as the commentary which was very interesting. There was the option to purchase drinks and snacks from the friendly and attentive staff. A great way to see Berlin!

We really enjoyed this. Perfect low key way to see some sites and relax before the marathon. It was nice that the boat had indoor and outdoor options. Basic Germany menu made for an easy lunch too. You can rent multi language audioguides - recommend bringing your 3.5mm earphones to use with it.
