What you can expect

  • The 50- or 100-minute boat trips depart from Eiserner Steg. The boat leaves every hour. You can choose either 50 minutes downstream or 50 minutes upstream or 100 minutes (combination of both routes).

    Sailing towards Griesheim, see the urban areas of Frankfurt towards the western harbor. Here you have a wonderful view of the skyscrapers of Frankfurt’s Financial Center or you can enjoy the museums along the embankment, for example the Städel. The ship will turn around before the Griesheim lock.
    Departures at 11 AM, 1 PM, 3 PM and 5 PM.

    Sail upstream towards Offenbach. Sail past the beautiful embankments of the River Main towards the eastern harbor of the city. You can see the Sachsenhausen district and its museum embankment. Enjoy the view of the beauty of Frankfurt with its impressive skyscrapers.
    Departures at 12 PM, 2 PM, 4 PM.

    The 100-minute cruises are usually available between 11 AM and 4 PM, every hour.
