About Hamburg
Hamburg is Germany's most important cruise port and home to numerous AIDA ships as well as the Hapag-Lloyd fleet. Three cruise centers (Steinwerder, Altona, HafenCity) serve more than 250 port calls annually. The distinctive cityscape featuring the Elbphilharmonie, Speicherstadt (UNESCO World Heritage Site), and Landungsbrücken makes Hamburg one of the most beautiful cruise ports in Northern Europe.

Tips for the cruise day
A cruise day in Hamburg is easy to enjoy on foot and by S-Bahn/U-Bahn. A classic option: the Elbphilharmonie Plaza (free of charge), then on to the Speicherstadt and Miniatur Wunderland. If you're short on time: a harbour tour from the Landungsbrücken (90 min.). A day ticket for the HVV is worth it.
