• During my recent visit to Berlin to attend a technology showcase related to Pipeline technologies I got the opportunity to experience the Boat tour in Germany. The boat tour experience offers me a unique and scenic perspective of the Berlin city and its landmarks. The tour took us along the river Spree showcasing the city’s famous sites.

• I boarded the boat along with other conference attendees from this location. The boarding location was at Sonnenallee street which is located in the Neukölln district of Berlin. This place is known for its diverse and multicultural atmosphere, as well as its vibrant nightlife scene. Sonnenallee is also a popular shopping destination, with a variety of shops, cafes, and restaurants. The boat trip was sponsored to the attendees by the conference organizing committee.

The boat with all the passengers slowly moved through the Neuköllner Schiffahrtskanal which is a shipping canal connecting the river Spree in the east of the city with the River Havel and the River Elbe in the west, providing a navigable route for vessels.

The canal was built in the late 19th century and is still in use today, although it has undergone several renovations and improvements over the years. The boat tour offered a unique and enjoyable experience personally for me. The canal was peaceful and scenic waterway that runs through the city, offering views of the surrounding neighborhoods and the Berlin skyline.

One can relax and take in the sights while on board a comfortable boat and learn about the history and culture of the area from boat tour guide. The Boat tour lasted between 1 and half to 2 hours. The canal is lined with trees and vegetation, and you get to see the city from a different perspective as you glide past the bridges, buildings, and boats.

The tour provides a relaxing escape from the bustling city and is a great way to take in the beauty of Berlin’s waterways. I highly rate my boat tour experience as it offered a fun and different perspective of the Berlin city. It was fun to bend the upper bodies while the boat moved under the bridges located over the Neukölln Shipping Canal. I highly recommended the boat tour activity for visitors and locals alike in the Berlin city.

@fasi6083 Boat trips are always pleasant, so I try to find a possibility to take it in places where it’s available. Your story reminded me of my visits to Berlin in 2021 and Hamburg in 2022 - both with boat trips.
