Welcome on board! Our family-owned company has been operating for three generations, and three of its inviting passenger ships are based in Cologne. Our ships operate all year round, and they have a capacity of 50 to 150 comfortable seats in the indoor salon. The pleasant open-air decks invite passengers to enjoy a relaxing tour.


THE RIGHT SHIP TOUR FOR EVERY TASTE — 1, 2 OR 3 HOURS:

PANORAMA ROUND TRIPS (about one hour)
Enjoy a guided tour with explanations of the city's major attractions in German and English! The tour begins at the Konrad-Adenauer-Ufer and passes Cologne Cathedral, the historic city centre, the Chocolate Museum and the German Sport and Olympic Museum (first stopover), then sails along the Poll Meadows, under four more Rhine bridges, to the former fishing village of Rodenkirchen with its many cafés and restaurants (second stopover) and back to its starting point.

NEW AND ONLY AT OUR COMPANY! THEME-BASED ROUND TRIPS WITH LIVE EXPLANATIONS BY OUR CITY GUIDES (about two hours, in German only, extra tours in foreign languages on request)

• The Kölsch Tour: Share that "kölsch feeling" on board our ship. You'll be able to experience the Rhinelanders' zest for life close up, through stories and anecdotes!
• The Seven Bridges Tour: This tour will take you under seven bridges that cross the Rhine as you listen to stories about the Rhine and the bridges of this cathedral city — stories that range from the ancient Romans to the special green paint developed for the bridges of Cologne.
• The Blue Monday Tour on the MS Moby Dick with live explanations of all the major attractions along the way.

EXCLUSIVE! GRAND ROUND-TRIP TOURS OF COLOGNE'S HARBORS (about three hours, in German only, extra tours in foreign languages on request)
Experience selected Cologne harbors with all of their infrastructure — including explanations by a guide! The three-hour "educational tour" on the MS RheinCargo, the MS Rheinland or the MS Rheinperle illuminates the history of the Rheinauhafen, offers an in-depth look at the harbors of Deutz and Mülheim and takes you behind the scenes at the Niehl I container port.
