Tour was so-so. Thought the sites planned during the cruise would be explained or pointed out better. Felt like we went down the river a bit, turned around and came back with not having seen much of the city.
Great trip, very friendly staff. Perfect if you’re sightseeing but want to give your feet some rest :)
Unforgettable experience and our tour guide Michael is very knowledgeable, entertaining and speak very good English with German humor.
No live person giving details of buildings or history. It's a nice boat ride with a semi muffled recording in German then English telling you some bare bone facts. Was pleasant but completely lacked any really information about the city.
One hour very well spent on the mighty Rhine River! It was smooth sailing from start to finish, along with great commentary on the background; it was nice to learn so many historic facts about the beautiful Cologne city!!
Short boat trip on the Rhine with a beautiful view of the cathedral, the crane houses, and the old town. Announcements with information about the sights did not work properly during the trip. Overall, we had higher expectations from the boat trip.
Panorama departs on 24.95.2026 at 12:00 on the Willi Ostermann. Absolutely terrible. What was referred to as attractions was really sad. A city with such a long historical background has much more interesting things to offer than, for example, the Krahnhäuser. The staff absolutely did not understand German, and they reacted the same way when the sales sign for ice fell directly on my foot, which immediately swelled up. My complaint was simply ignored. I didn't even receive ice cubes to cool down. The customer service has not deemed it necessary to respond to my email so far.
Nice 1 hour cruise of the Rheine ! Drinks and snacks and some history along the way. Very reasonably priced and a fun way to see Cologne
Pleasant boatride on a warm day but the boat was crowded with families taking up all the available tables. I managed to find a chair by chance.
Great cruise. Nice commentary about Köln. Friendly staff. Good suggestions for other sights. Thank you.
