Step one

Choose your sailing

It's a fly-cruise, so the price moves with the airport you fly from — and the cheapest airport isn't the same one every week. Choose your airport, then a date to see the cabins on board.

About this cruise

Elbe

This cruise combines the Hanseatic flair of Bremen with the cultural diversity of Berlin. From Bremen, the cruise takes you along the idyllic Weser through places such as Hoya, Nienburg and Hanover-Anderten, where you can experience the serenity and history of northern Germany. The journey continues east along the Mittelland Canal via Braunschweig and Magdeburg. In Brandenburg, Potsdam and Berlin Spandau, the water landscape shows itself from its most beautiful side - characterized by lakes, castles and green expanses. A varied journey that combines the best of two worlds. Northern German tranquillity and Berlin lifestyle.
