Shore Excursion from Warnemünde - Berlin & Sachsenhausen
Kreisfreie Stadt Rostock
About
If you’re visiting Berlin for the first time, this guided shore excursion offers a clear and respectful way to see both the city’s top landmarks and the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Memorial. You’ll be picked up right at your cruise ship in Warnemünde or Rostock and travel comfortably to Berlin, where a local guide will introduce you to key highlights across the city.
In the afternoon, you’ll continue to Sachsenhausen, located about an hour outside Berlin, for a brief visit and overview of the site. Because it lies along the return route to port, this schedule helps reduce total travel time—though this tour includes more time on the bus than our standard Berlin-only option.
