Cruise ship calendar: Hamburg

Which cruise ships are in Hamburg, when, and how much of Berlin a day trip by train would give their passengers.

How to read this calendar

• Time in Berlin is our estimate by train: 30 minutes to get off the ship, about 2 h 20 min each way between your terminal and Berlin (the ICE takes about 1 h 47 min; the rest is getting to Hamburg Hauptbahnhof), a one-hour buffer, and all-aboard 30 minutes before departure. How we calculate it.
• Many Hamburg calls are turnarounds, where the cruise starts or ends. The port’s list doesn’t say which; where a cruise line’s itinerary does, the calendar shows it. Otherwise, check your cruise documents. If your cruise starts or ends here, a night or two in Berlin is the better plan.
• Times are the port’s published times and can change. Your ship’s daily programme is the final word.

Other ports: Warnemünde · Kiel
