Overview

If you are docking in the port of Kiel, let us take you on an adventure to one of the most iconic and picturesque towns in Northern Germany and Europe - the medieval town of Lübeck, the red-brick city of the Hansa, Thomas Mann and Günther Grass.

Visit this enchanting and breathtaking German town in the comfort of an air-conditioned vehicle picking up and dropping off directly at your cruise ship, and a passionate local guide who will take you to all of its gems.

Marvel at its iconic gate, one of the most recognized symbols of the Baltic, see the stunning St Mary's Basilica - the predecessor of all red-brick Gothic Churches in this region, dating back from the mid-13th century.
