Viewing a city from the flowing river gives you a unique perspective of the sights, panorama and atmosphere. Especially in the evening hours, when Cologne Cathedral lights up green and the sparkling lights of the city are reflected in the gentle rhythm of the swirling water, Cologne shows itself from one of its most beautiful sides.
You can enjoy one of the many boat tours on the water from the Cathedral and Hohenzollern Bridge landing stage or Cologne's Old Town - a romantic evening cruise, a panoramic cruise with a view of Cologne's sights with lots of interesting facts about the city's history and the peculiarities of its people, a musical or event tour on the boat, a round trip to the Crane Houses, past the Chocolate Museum, or a day trip to small neighbouring towns down to the picturesque Siebengebirge hills.
