  • Hamburg, Cuxhaven, Rendsburg and Kiel

If you can't decide between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea, simply come on board. Brought into a maritime mood by the glamorous port of Hamburg and the lively Hafencity, you will sail excitedly towards the northwest on the Elbe. In Cuxhaven, you will not only be greeted by the nostalgic Elbe promenade Alte Liebe, but also by the spring-fresh North Sea. That makes you want more. So why not visit the Baltic Sea directly? You will sail there through the Kiel Canal. After a short stop in Rendsburg, you walk from the nostalgic old town to the baroque new town. In the Kiel Fjord, your view finally opens up to the magic of the Baltic Sea. Is it even more beautiful than the North Sea?
