Cruise Dresden on the Elbe River for 90 minutes, see the Elbe palaces and the Blue Wonder bridge, plus audio in German and English.
“The boat was so nice. We got wonderful pictures and it was just long enough. A glass of wine and cruising down the river was just what the day called for!”
Cruise the Elbe from Dresden to Pillnitz, passing Baroque castles and Blue Wonder bridge, with audio guide and a short photo stop.
“The scenery was beautiful and the staff on board incredibly helpful but it would've been great to have access to the Audio guide QR code prior to the cruise in order to download the English guide ahead of time seeing as there wasn't WiFi available on the boat.”
Relax on a Dresden to Meissen Elbe paddle steamer, with a midday break to explore Albrechtsburg, Frauenkirche, and porcelain.
“Exactly what it promises! Very nice boat ride along a beautiful river to a nice little town. Give yourself a little bit of time to get tickets and make it to the boat on time, I got there with only 10 minutes to get a paper ticket and it took awhile... they were roping off the boarding ramp when I arrived but still let me on :)”
Paddle-wheel cruise from Dresden to Königstein, with Elbe castles, Bastei rocks, and a stunning water-level view of Fort Königstein.
Dresden Elbe evening cruise with dinner. See Blue Wonder bridge and lit palaces, enjoy a 3-course meal and smooth music. 3 hours.
Paddle steamer cruise on the Elbe from Dresden to Diesbar-Seußlitz, plus a vineyard hike and a five-wine Saxony tasting.
“It was a wonderful trip. Very personalized and interesting guided tour. Everything was perfect. The bus ride back was a bit wild. But we were lovingly accompanied until the end.”
Day trip from Dresden to Bastei Bridge, Neurathen and Rathen, plus Czech lunch, Tisá Rocks, and a guided Kamenice Gorge boat ride.
“Amazing tour with Andrea (our guide) and Daniel (our driver). We started with visiting Bastei bridge in Saxon Switzerland, and then we went into Kamenice gorge, where we had a beautiful 20-min boat ride. After a delicious lunch, we visited Tisa walls. Andrea knew so much information about the national parks, and the landscapes were truly amazing. We strongly recommend this tour to visit the highlights of Saxon & Bohemian Switzerland in one day.”
Paddle a rubber dinghy from Pillnitz to Dresden along the Elbe, passing Blue Wonder and Elbe castles, with beer garden stops.
“Es hat alles super geklappt und wir hatten unseren Spaß”
Every kind of German day out, and the best of each.
