River cruise

Spree River Cruise

Compare the Berlin Spree city tour with the trip from Treptow to Müggelsee: route, duration, boarding, and seasonal timetable.

City tour on the Spree

The Berlin city tour departing from Friedrichstraße takes about two hours and 15 minutes. From the Reichstagufer, the cruise passes Museum Island, Berlin Cathedral, the main railway station, the government district and Westhafen before returning to its starting point. Other boat tours from Berlin depart from Lindenufer in Spandau.

Spree cruise to Müggelsee

The trip from Treptow to Müggelsee takes around three hours and heads southeast out of the city centre. Stops and sights along the way include Treptower Park, Insel der Jugend, Oberschöneweide, Köpenick, Friedrichshagen and Müggelsee. Here, the city tour opens out into a scenic cruise along the Müggelspree and across the lake. The two tours differ in both duration and route: a little over two hours on a circular cruise through the city centre, or around three hours travelling as far as southeastern Berlin.

Two departure points in Berlin

The city tour departs from Reichstagufer at the corner of Friedrichstraße, near Friedrichstraße station. The landing stage can only be reached by stairs. For accessibility at the landing stage and when boarding, the route from street level down to the riverbank and the transition onto the boat are separate sections. A gangway connects the quay and the boat.

The Müggelsee cruise departs from Puschkinallee 15 in Treptow; Treptower Park S-Bahn station is nearby. The two departure points are at opposite ends of the city and lead to different stretches of the Spree. The operator lists dates and departure times for each tour.
