Important Information

Final departures are often in the late afternoon or evening depending on season and route. Missing boarding usually means waiting for the next available sailing or rebooking.

Late afternoon and sunset are especially popular for warm light and atmospheric skyline views, while morning sailings are quieter and more relaxed.

Advance booking is strongly recommended in high season, on weekends, and around public holidays when prime departures can sell out quickly.

City transport or museum passes generally do not include private river cruises unless explicitly stated in your ticket details.
