Our waterway cruises Germany

Nature

With its land­scapes of lakes, rivers, forests and vil­lages, Ger­many is full of charm­ing and relax­ing places. In Wesen­berg, you’ll be able to enjoy the beau­ty of Lake Woblitz, div­ing into the aston­ish­ing­ly pure water. Through­out your water­way hol­i­day, you can choose your favourite lakes and take in remark­able sun­sets aboard your licence-free boat. The many forests you trav­el through will pro­vide you with hik­ing and cycling trails and you’ll sure­ly come across some ani­mals, such as sea eagles. If you pre­fer water sports, div­ing, kayak­ing and pad­dle board­ing will give you a chance to dis­cov­er the many fish, teals and cranes in these parts. A lit­tle fur­ther on, near the cap­i­tal, you’ll be able to access the lake and park at Wannsee, fill­ing up on fresh air as you stroll along the beach.

Monuments

Don’t miss the impos­ing Rheins­berg Cas­tle, with its gar­den adjoin­ing the lake — there’s no need to leave your house­boat to enjoy it ! Every­one knows the extent to which Ger­many was marked by the war, and a guid­ed tour of Sach­sen­hausen con­cen­tra­tion camp in Oranien­burg will immerse you in the his­to­ry of these sin­is­ter places of tor­ture, leav­ing a last­ing impres­sion. In Berlin, medieval quar­ters, his­toric sites, muse­ums, the­atres, Goth­ic cathe­drals and Baroque church­es com­pete for your atten­tion with mod­ern build­ings, the young city cen­tre, street art and live­ly bars. Germany’s most dynam­ic city is also a place to expe­ri­ence mem­o­rable fes­ti­vals at its live­ly ports. If you love shop­ping, head to Kur­fürs­ten­damm avenue in the chic neigh­bour­hood of Char­lot­ten­burg. A trip to Berlin won’t be com­plete with­out a vis­it to the roof ter­race and dome of the Reich­stag Palace. The splen­did Ital­ian Renais­sance-inspired Belvedere Pfin­gst­berg in Pots­dam, south-west of Berlin, is just one of the many state­ly build­ings in the region.

Must-see places for a successful stay

Berlin, the capital of reunified Germany

Berlin, the capital of reunified Germany

You’ll need a boat licence to navigate the canals that wind through the streets of the capital of reunified Germany. But you can also leave your houseboat to take a walk around Berlin, home to more canals and waterways than Venice. Go on foot to visit one of the most mythical places in Europe: Alexanderplatz. You can then head to the Reichstag Palace or Brandenburg Gate. The German city has countless historic buildings telling its history in a lively and fun way, so surprise yourself with a visit to Berlin during your waterway cruise in Germany.
Rheinsberg Palace

Rheinsberg Palace

During your waterway cruise in Germany, moor up on the shores of Lake Grienerick. Here you can treat yourself to a tour of Rheinsberg Castle and its elegant grounds. The castle was the former residence of Frederick the Great. It was built from the middle of the 16th century and, today, Rheinsberg Castle is an emblematic example of the Frederician Rococo architectural trend. This reminder of a glorious bygone era is now the setting for a famous festival of classical music and opera. Stop off here during your waterway cruise for an unforgettable experience.
Lakes of great beauty with exceptionally pure water

Lakes of great beauty with exceptionally pure water

While your waterway cruise will take you through the rivers and canals of Germany, it will also lead you to the countless lakes that have secured the country's reputation. From Lake Grienerick to Lake Stechline, every pond and lagoon will invite you to enjoy a soothing break. On the shores of the lakes and the deck of your boat, indulge in your favourite activities as you take advantage of the impeccable water quality for both fishing and swimming. The water clarity in Lake Stechline is so impressive that you can admire its depths, right down to 12 metres at certain times of the year – certainly enough to make you want to dive in and continue your exploration!
