Alster Canal Cruise

Highlights

  • Cruise on the Inner and Outer Alster
  • Historical cruises
  • Germany's oldest operating steamship
  • Tour through the romantic Alster canals

The Alster Steamship Association is dedicated to preserving historic Alster ships and continuing the Alster steamship service as faithfully as possible to its origins. Climb aboard and enjoy the historic cruises on Germany's oldest operating steamship, the "St. Georg," built in 1876.

A cruise along the Alster canals will show you a very special side of Hamburg. Passing under old bridges and along pristine riverbanks, you'll enjoy the idyllic residential areas near the Alster. The canal cruise first takes you across the Inner and Outer Alster Lakes. A highlight of the trip is a detour into the Rondeelteich pond, which is only accessible to the public from the water. The cruise then continues past the townhouses of the Leinpfad, upstream along the Alster to the Winterhuder Fährhaus, and back to Jungfernstieg. The onboard catering offers a selection of drinks.
