The view is nice, you get a good look at the harbor activities. However, it's not clear how to get the English version of the tour. The tour is advertised in English as well, but you get on the boat, we're greeted by the crew, then you await the departure and throughout the ride you enjoy a pleasant background voice in German. No indication on how you could get a translation.

It was a nice pleasant trip through the Hamburg harbour. But the boat which was used were not expected. I saw some pictures on the page as a larger boat but the real one was small and not so comfortable. Update the web page with the real boat which will be used
