Relax with the whole family on the beach or enjoy a walk into the picturesque wilderness along Wannsee and Oberhavelsee. See where such famous personages as the painter Max Liebermann or the dramatist Heinrich von Kleist lived and worked and get to know the historic significance of the lakes.

The tour takes place from Wannsee across the Havel to Potsdam. Enjoy the tours through the idyllic Havel Lakes and many historic buildings like the Babelsberg Palace or the Church of the Redeemer, Sacrow.

A perfect day all round :-) Our tickets were not checked. On the ship there was a very attentive service staff and delicious cool drinks. On request, you were let out at the next landing stage. The tour was carried out by a native Berliner from Wannsee. His open and funny nature kept all passengers entertained. A fair offer for €16.90. You have a great view of many villas, forest and sights. Gladly again!

I would recommend booking the tour during the week so the boat was pleasantly empty. You can get off at some stations, explore something there for an hour or two and just hop on the next boat (hop on hop off), that was great. The captain tells about some villas and what to see, the crew was very nice. The ride was nice and quiet and comfortable!

Very nice and varied tour of the lakes, the captain was very committed and fed us with a lot of interesting information. Only the service was in a terrible mood. Our boat tour was brought forward by 2 hours, but I was personally called, which I thought was great! Definitely recommended!
