Overview

  • This shore excursion combines our classic All-in-One Best of Berlin trip with a brief visit to the largest concentration camp near Berlin: Sachsenhausen. 

    We will pick you up directly at your cruise ship docking in Warnemünde or Rostock, and bring you to Berlin to see the city's essential sites. You will then be driven to Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp for an overview of the memorial site.

    Please be aware, Sachsenhausen is roughly a one hour drive from Berlin. The tour is organised to minimise time spent on the bus. This is why we visit Sachsenhausen in the afternoon, as it lies on the way back to port. More time, however, is spent on the bus than on our regular Berlin shore excursion.

    All of our shore excursions are adjusted to each ship’s docking times and each starts promptly after your vessel’s arrival, returning with plenty of time to spare before its departure. We have been organising shore excursions for nearly a decade and have never missed a cruise ship’s departure.

Activity itinerary

Warnemünde Cruise Center (Pass by)

Sachsenhausen was the largest concentration camp in the vicinity of Berlin and one of many camps in a system now synonymous with the atrocities of Nazism. This tour is designed to provide an overview of the Sachsenhausen concentration camp memorial while also showing you Berlin’s essential sites during the time you have ashore. You will be greeted in front of your cruise ship as soon as it docks and shown to a modern, comfortable, air-conditioned bus. Your professional driver will then transfer you through the picturesque flatlands of former East Germany to Berlin. The journey takes approximately three hours.

Charlottenburg Palace (Pass by)

Upon arriving in Berlin, your professional guide will join the tour. You will then enjoy a drive-by view of Charlottenburg Palace, Berlin’s largest and most magnificent royal residence.

Tiergarten (Pass by)

You will then be driven through the lush greenery of Berlin's vast central park.

Victory Column (Siegessaule) (Pass by)

Make sure to have your camera ready to catch the sun glinting on the golden angel Victoria, goddess of victory, as you circle around Prussia's emphatic monument to its triumphs in the Wars of Unification.

Reichstag Building

  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
When we reach the German parliament building – burned down after Hitler’s rise to power, now a bold symbol of modern German democracy – we will exit the bus and spend the next portion of the tour on foot.

Brandenburg Gate

  • 15m
Next we walk through the gateways of Berlin's most iconic monument and find out what makes the Gate the most important cultural monument in Germany.

The Holocaust Memorial - Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe

  • 15m
After we leave Pariser Platz plenty of time will be taken to journey through the iconic field of concrete blocks, and bear witness the atrocities of National Socialism.

Topography of Terror

  • 15m
Boarding the bus again we head next to see the dark heart of Nazi Germany at the former headquarters of the SS and Gestapo and come face-to-face with the Cold War's most brutal symbol: The Berlin Wall.

Checkpoint Charlie

  • 45m
Next you will have the chance to cross between East and West at the most famous border crossing point over the Berlin Wall, frontline of the Cold War, where spies roamed and US and Soviet tanks faced off in 1961. We will take a short lunch break here of approximately 30-45 minutes.

Museum Island

  • 10m
After lunch we will take some time to marvel at the stunning structures and imperial splendour of this UNESCO-listed World Heritage Site before driving to the Sachsenhausen memorial site – the journey takes roughly 1 hour.

Memorial and Museum Sachsenhausen

  • 1h 15m
When you reach the camp you will exit the bus with your guide and be given a 60-75 minute overview of the memorial site. You will then board the bus once more, say goodbye to your guide, and be driven back to port. Please be aware, the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Memorial is roughly a one hour drive from Berlin. The tour is organised to try and minimise time spent on the bus. This is why we visit Sachsenhausen in the afternoon, as it lies between Berlin and Warnemünde – on the way back to port. You will, however, spend more time on the bus than on our regular Berlin shore excursion. This is a necessity to see Berlin and Sachsenhausen in a day. All of our shore excursions are adjusted to each ship’s docking times and each starts promptly after your vessel’s arrival, returning with plenty of time to spare before its departure. We have been organising shore excursions for nearly a decade and have never missed a cruise ship’s departure.
