Quick Getaways: Hamburg's Birthday Celebration
4 ports plotted · click a marker for details
Day 1
London Tower Bridge , England
Wednesday, 03/05/2028
London, one of the world's top destinations, is a city begging to be explored. Steeped in history, the well-known sites of Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, and Trafalgar Square beckon, or get a modern perspective from the top of the London Eye. This cosmopolitan city offers all the world cuisines you're used to, but there are still places to find traditional British fare like bangers and mash or shepherds' pie.
Day 1
Cruising the Thames River, England
Wednesday, 03/05/2028
Sail the storied River Thames into or out of the heart of London, cruising beneath iconic Tower Bridge—a privilege only smaller ships can enjoy—and passing the Tower of London, the historic Royal Observatory at Greenwich marking the Prime Meridian, and the beautifully preserved Cutty Sark, the legendary 19th-century tea clipper. As you continue eastward, the skyline gradually gives way to the open waters of the English Channel.
Day 3
Elbe River Rivers
Friday, 05/05/2028
Day 3
Hamburg , Germany
Friday, 05/05/2028
Bridges arch over tranquil canals - more than you'll find in Venice. The spires of historic churches and the lovely Rathaus pierce the sky. It's hard to know where to begin your day. Stroll the Museum Mile for a lesson in history. Venture to Reeperbahn (the Red Light District) to see where the Beatles got their start. Or just shop along the "Mo" (Monckebergstrasse), Hamburg's version of Fifth Avenue.
Day 4
Heligoland Archipelago , Germany
Saturday, 06/05/2028
Heligoland is a German island in the North Sea. It's known for its spectacular red cliffs, white sand beaches, turquoise waters, and diverse seabirds. Take a short ferry ride to Heligoland-Dune and enjoy the tranquil beach. You may even see a seal or two! If you can, make sure to try some lobster while on shore. Heligoland is known for its lobster and was once the center of Germany's lobster fishing industry
Day 5
Amsterdam , Netherlands
Sunday, 07/05/2028
Amsterdam, the Venice of the North, where more than 1,500 bridges arch gracefully over scenic canals. The stately 17th century homes of Dutch merchants line the canals and museums are everywhere, filled with masterpieces from the Dutch Golden Age. Most of the sightseeing essentials are conveniently collected in the Canal Ring, the central area of the city which is designated as a UNESCO site. Here you'll find the Anne Frank House, the Royal Palace, the Red Light District, and most of the museums. Mind all the bicycles!

Your Ship
