Fair prices compared to other boat rental places near by, and not too far of a walk from haynspark…read more(although we did get a bit lost). Nice location for a trip down the Alster and in the canals.

Das ist das non plus ultra!…read more Ich bin vor 2 Wochen mit den RIB Piraten durch den Hafen gekachelt und es gibt wenig, was auf dem Wasser soviel Spass macht! An dem Tag war das Wetter echt bescheiden, aber selbst der Pisselregen hat uns nicht gestört. Mit Vollkaracho übers Wasser, das ist Adrenalin pur und echter Fahrspass! Das Team ist super nett und professionell! Auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert! This is an absolute must do if youre interested into speed boat trips. I did it 2 weeks ago and it was a lots of fun. Although the weather wasnt really good, we enjoyed the speed cruise a lot. This is an adrenalin rush amazing! The RIB team is very friendly and professional and will instruct you as needed. Very recommendable!

This boat trip is ok I liked the layout of the tables inside the boat where you can sit around and…read morehave a drink whilst watching the buildings as you sail on by and they have a nice big space up on top deck. However the trip we went on we did not see much apart from a lot of industrial sites, a cruise ship being built or refurbished, submarine and a few nice buildings apart from that it was not a pretty tour to of gone on. Also I feel the lack of an English translator made it even more boring for us as we did not know what we was passing. Only way we would of known is if we had downloaded the app but we did not know about this until after boarding and they advise to download from your hotel. I think they should get a translator on some of the tours or even provide headphones with a recorded tape.

I lived in Hamburg for a year and during the summer a friend and I decided that we wanted to take…read moreup sailing. Given that I am a native English speaker and still consider my German to be so-so, I was a bit apprehensive about signing up for a sailing course since the end-goal is obviously to pass both the written and practical exam to receive one's sailing license. Needless to say, my convinced me to give it a shot and I'm glad that I did. The Prusse staff was extremely accommodating and would explain things in English if I was a bit uncertain about the German explanation. In the end, I passed both the practical and written exam and now am a proud holder of a sailing license in Germany. Almost nobody fails the practical exam as it's recommended that you complete 40 hours of sailing before taking the exam, but quite a few people do not pass the written exam. My words of advice- buy the book that Prusse offers! After spending so much on the sailing course, don't skimp out on buying the textbook for an additional 30 euro. It's completely necessary! They changed the format of the exam to all multiple choice, which I was beyond excited about. You're notified right after taking the exam if you've passed or failed.

Best way to sight see around the alster? - rent a pedal boat from this place!…read more They offer really nice pedal boats that look like actual boats versus the usual plastic and weird pedal boats we have seen before. The boats are super easy to navigate with the steering wheel and quite comfortably fits two people. The seats are easily adjustable so if you are super tall or super short you will be fine. The first time I got a pedal boat I did not know if this added feature! I would recommend getting the boat for about an hour at least so you can enjoy and take in the amazing view! The prices are reasonable! They even offer lockers for you to put your stuff in free of charge if you do not want to risk them getting wet. Definitely put this at the top of your list if you are visiting or even if you live in hamburg.

8 euros for 30 min of boat paddling fun!…read more Great value for paddleboating and you can go pretty far out on the lake. They do close at 9pm on Saturday though. There is also a great bar right next door to layout with a warm (or cold) drink and blanket to watch the sunset. Super cute date spot!
