Port knowledge to take away – with the 2-hour XXL tour

After this tour, you will know the most important container terminals, understand why the historic Speicherstadt is not always navigable, and be able to easily explain terms such as dry dock, flow control lock, TEU, bulbous bow, and RoRo.

Experience the port of Hamburg from new perspectives – twice as long, twice as intense.

The passenger ships RIVER STAR and HAMBURG as well as the paddle wheel ship LOUISIANA STAR are barrier-free accessible via a gangway and have barrier-free sanitary facilities.
