Are you already familiar with the Elbe from the Halunder Jet? Well, here’s a wonderful new addition: Our partner, Rainer Abicht Elbreederei, is offering day trips from Cuxhaven to Hamburg this summer. A whole day on the water, completely relaxed and at a leisurely pace.
The cruise starts at the Alte Liebe pier and heads upstream along the Elbe, passing locks, islands in the Elbe, and the big ships, all the way to the St. Pauli Landungsbrücken. There, you’ll have about two hours to enjoy fish sandwiches, the Elbphilharmonie, and the harbor air before heading back to Cuxhaven.
