Experience Hamburg harbour up close. Where the heart of Hamburg's harbour beats, at the Landungsbrücken, you can discover the city from its most beautiful side, from the water.
Enjoy the Elbe experience and discover Hamburg from the water's side with the diverse offers of the Elbe shipping company Rainer Abbicht.
Every half hour, our typical Hamburg harbour launches, numerous modern passenger ships and our paddle wheeler LOUISIANA STAR set off on a large harbour tour or a 2-hour XXL cruise.
Rustic captains explain interesting facts and tell interesting stories about the development of the harbour but, don't worry, there's no shortage of humour. Have you ever thought about an evening lights cruise on the Elbe? Our maritime launches glide through the special evening atmosphere of the harbour basins, canals and canals of the historic Speicherstadt (depending on the tide) with its fantastically illuminated bridges, which has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2015. And the public events - from our legendary Original Hamburg Shipboard Party and live music events to the popular cruises on New Year's Eve, the harbour birthday or the Cruise Days - also provide wonderful impressions of Hamburg from the water.
All tours organised by Elbreederei Rainer Abicht can also be experienced in 7 languages via the ‘Rainer Abicht’ audio app. (You can download the Android version here and the iOS version for Apple here.) The ‘Rainer Abicht’ audio app can be installed barrier-free on your personal device and played through your own headphones.
