Route

The boarding point is not fixed until shortly before the start of the voyage, while the disembarkation point is usually determined during the voyage. Passengers book a specific travel period. The ship often operates in the Hamburg – Braunschweig area, but other routes are also sailed, e.g. Rhine and tributaries, North German, Dutch, Belgian canals, Elbe and Danube to Hungary, but this is rather rare.

Comments
The guest apartment on board is rented out like a holiday flat, passengers take care of their own meals and drinks. Passengers book a fixed period of travel of approx. 4-8 days. In addition, a flexibility of +/- 3 days should be planned in order to be able to react flexibly to changes in the itinerary if necessary.
The ship frequently carries container shipments between Braunschweig and Hamburg. Then arriving by car, which can be easily parked in Braunschweig or en route, is a good option. However, routes are not selectable, they are only determined shortly before the start of the trip.
