OUR RECOMMENDATIONS Discover Hamburg before or after a cruise!

Are you starting or finishing your cruise in Hamburg? Then don't miss the Hanseatic City as your first or last anchor point!

Hamburg has more to offer than just the harbour and its ships. We'll show you a bundle of some - and by no means all - of the greatest must-sees. Practically speaking, the harbour is uniquely and centrally located in the city centre, so that you can easily explore the city. Great events like the HARBOUR BIRTHDAY HAMBURG in May or the biennial Cruise Days attract thousands of visitors to the city and should be celebrated by real cruise passengers.

We look forward to welcoming you to Hamburg soon!
