    An interesting 2 hour cruise through Hamburg. However, we only speak English and the audio was only in German. I was given a flyer with directions to download an audio ap. However, I could not do so without internet service. Also ride does not provide headsets. So we were not prepared for this excursion. Wish we had been given directions when we signed up.

    Nice quiet evening tour, can sit inside or outside - better views and possibilities for photos if outside (depending on weather), food and drink options inside

    It’s just ok. When I read other reviews I thought maybe they did not follow the instructions. Let me give you a bit more details. I did download the app to listen the tour in English. The app does explain maybe 60% of the tour (the most important sites). When we enter the Speicherstadt area (canals), even before that area, there is no explanation in the app. Literally the last 30 to 45 min of the tour I don’t know what exactly I looked at or the importance of them. At that point I just took random photos or videos… Also if you order anything on the boat make sure to bring cash in euros. They don’t take dollars. When you want to pay with card, there is a 10 euros minimum charge… so over all it was disappointing, in a country like Germany.

    Took the 1.5 hour harbour trip. Downloaded the app as recommended so we could understand the commentary. The app started off as we left the dock and then the commentary stopped. It did return for another five minutes later on. Slightly disappointed as we knew the commentary was going to be in German but thought the app would allow us to listen in English Trip took us to Speicherstadt one way and then down to the container port and cruise terminal Recommend if you are English and happy yo fo without commentary or understanding of sites

    The speaker on the boat was loud and totally in German. I could not hear the audio in English on my phone because the speaker on the boat was so loud. I could not hear the audio at all. Very disappointed. I do Viator tours often. This was my first disaster
