Berlin Spree Boat Ride

Can anyone give me a link to a site (hopefully in English if possible) for a boat ride along the Spree? We%26#39;re going in September and thinking it would be a fun and relaxing thing to do, maybe even a tour after dark. Have you enjoyed doing that? Is there more than one company? (I%26#39;m sure). Which would you recommend? Just looking for a short maybe 2 hour ride.





Thanks for your help.

Here are some websites to look at. Can%26#39;t recommend a special company though. Went on a tour some years ago. Not to be missed if weather is fine.

We had a lovely boat ride along the Spree in September 2006. We took the first boat company we came to, opposite the old East German Government building and the Berliner Dom. It was the highlight of our stay and the guide was brilliant, making sure he pointed out the sights in English as well as German.





We were lucky that the weather was beautiful and the trip itself was very comprehensive, taking in views over to Museum Island, the Reichstag and the modern Government buildings. The guide was very knowledgable and gave us some insights into the history of the city that the guidebooks don%26#39;t contain.





I hope you enjoy!

Thank you for the information. I found a couple of companies that sound promising. I%26#39;m running the Berlin Marathon in September and am thinking it would be a nice way to spend a relaxing evening after the marathon. Hopefully the weather will cooperate!
