Usedom island tour

Already in the 19th century Usedom was a popular summer holiday destination because of its fine sandy beaches, forests, small lakes and quiet lagoon landscape. Both the wealthy bourgeoisie and the nobility enjoyed life in the seaside resorts of Ahlbeck, Heringsdorf and Bansin. Even today, the numerous houses in the classicist style of "spa architecture" still exude a touch of this sophisticated atmosphere of days gone by. Where once the Mann brothers, Gorky and Tolstoy walked, today's excursion takes you past impressive Wilhelminian villas, the unmistakable turret-crowned pier of Ahlbeck and the longest pier on the Baltic Sea in Heringsdorf. The pier with the restaurant pavilion is the unmistakable landmark of Ahlbeck and a popular backdrop in film and television.

City tour / walk Potsdam

When you hear Potsdam, you certainly immediately think of Sanssouci Palace. But the city has even more to offer than the former summer residence of Frederick the Great. The Russian colony Alexandrowka, the Dutch Quarter and the former Bohemian Weavers' Quarter, all historic quarters of the city, also contribute to Potsdam's special charm. On the way through the historic city center with its beautifully restored buildings, you will pass the Dutch Quarter with its charming gabled houses, the Russian colony Alexandrowka and learn about the importance of the Glienicke Bridge. Afterwards, a tour through the park of Cecilienhof Palace awaits you. The tour continues to the imposing summer palace of Sanssouci. Frederick the Great had this palace built as a place of tranquility, where he could devote himself to art, music and culture without worry (sans souci), far from the hustle and bustle of Berlin. Join us for a guided walk through the impressive grounds of the estate before heading to the ship/main train station in Berlin.
