River Cruise by Solar Boat to the Spreepark

Experience Berlin the green way on a river cruise aboard the emission-free solar catamaran "Suncat 120". The solar boat combines the exclusive ambience of a yacht with environmental sustainability. On it, you glide silently through the green Berlin.

From the Famous East Side Gallery ...

Start your exciting tour on the Spree at the Jannowitzbrücke pier or the East Side Gallery pier and enjoy the cityscape explanations in an exclusive atmosphere during the two-hour trip. On the way to the Spreepark, you will pass the world-famous East Side Gallery, the impressive Oberbaum Bridge, the former industrial port Osthafen with its typical warehouses and the giant water statue Molecule Man.

... to the Plänterwald Forest Steeped in History

Heading further south-east, you will experience the green side of Berlin. The solar boat passes Treptower Park with the Archenhold Observatory. In the distance you can already see the Spreepark ferris wheel. The abandoned amusement park has lain derelict since 2001 and is currently being redeveloped. Many Berliners are looking forward to its reopening in 2024. The Haus Zenner, which the solar ship reaches after about an hour, is just as steeped in history. The restaurant has been around since the 1820s. After being destroyed in the war, it was rebuilt in the post-war period in neo-Renaissance style. Even though the building is still being renovated, the beer garden, which is one of the largest in Berlin, is already open. From here, the view opens onto the beautiful "Insel der Jugend" (Island of Youth). Visitors can reach the island on foot via the Abteibrücke (Abbey Bridge), which is now a popular youth cultural venue where regular cultural events take place. The boat then turns around at the famous "Eierhäuschen". Built in the 19th century, this pub is a real Berlin institution.

Relaxed Atmosphere on Board

Listen to the explanations of an audio guide aboard the modern solar ship "Suncat 120". Audio guides are available in German, English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Chinese, Dutch, Russian, Swedish and Hebrew. Since the ship is powered by solar energy, no loud engine noise will disturb you. Enjoy a chilled drink at the bar inside or on deck and experience Berlin from the sunny outdoor seats. The ship is barrier-free so people with walking disabilities can easily join the cruise as well.
