When night falls between Jungfernstieg and Harvestehude, experience the Alster’s special magic when all the lights come on in Hamburg. In this blue hour, the Inner Alster and its canals are ablaze with the light of the setting sun. The spectacle of this light refracting in the Alster is nowhere to be admired as beautifully as from up close on an Alster boat trip.
In September – when the tide allows – the trip takes you into the Speicherstadt warehouse district.
