The Sailor´s Tour

Ship Ahoy

We´ll navigate you to some really special spots along the river, from the Övelgönne museum harbour the fish market - or the other way round.

Find out all there is to know about maritime travel in Övelgönne, when the nightbirds get up to and why the cruise industry thrives in Altona.

This busy strech along the river Elbe is in flux: containers full of goods now rub shoulders with offices in containers and heavy duty luxury, while more and more passengers are embarking and disembarking here than ever before.

We´ll admire the big ships from all around the world on the river and trace its highs and lows. We´ll show you the variety of products that have been produced over the centuries along and on the Elbe, from fish to beer.
