What people are saying about Frankfurt

The boat ride very very well. Punctual guided in English and German. You can go upstairs, which is an open terrace, or downstairs, which is a cafeteria (it is warmer in winter).

Very nice tour, good nice service, unfortunately the weather was cold and rainy. Will recommend the boat trip and repeat in the summer

I have booked the both side cruise and it was a quite nice experience. It’s a good place to relax and enjoy the summer with a view
