Berlin's Most Beautiful Boat (Tour) - In June, my husband and I spent 8 days in Berlin and taking a river cruise was something we really wanted to do. Although there are numerous cruise boats in operation along the Spree, the Hemingway greatly appealed to us because of its vintage charm. Once onboard, we knew we'd made the right choice! The boat is even lovelier in person and its captain and crew were absolutely wonderful. We enjoyed the narration, which highlighted numerous historic and architectural points of interest along the way. We also appreciated their refreshment offerings and the fresh flowers on each table. Taking in Berlin from the water on this beautiful boat is a memory we will cherish forever! Thanks again to the Hemingway's captain and crew-we hope to do again next time we're in Berlin.

Best boat on the river - This is the best cruise on the river. Small charming boat with a quiet electric motor, the crew was delightful and the guided tour very interesting. Reccomend over the larger boats.

Classy - Travelling from Newfoundland, Canada. This is a really nice tour with recorded commentary and some music. It is just one hour but the staff were super friendly and helpful and attentive. Service and drinks were great! The boat, the Hemingway, is immaculate. A very classy tour, I don’t understand why it wasn’t more fully booked. Highly recommended.

10/10, By far the best decision!! - A trip on this charming boat is by far the best decision you can make. With incredibly good music (e.g. Dire Straits and City), the trip takes place on a boat that couldn't be more nostalgic. The crew is incredibly friendly and accommodating, serving delicious drinks. Historical backgrounds of the passing places are repeatedly mentioned. All in all a 10/10 and not to be compared with other and frequently overrun tourist boats that resemble a mass event.

Relaxing, short tour. A... - Relaxing, short tour. A nice introduction to the major sites in Berlin, although we mostly just enjoyed a beautiful sun and a smooth ride.
