Port Guides

A guide to hamburg cruise port and the city’s top attractions.

Make the most of your time in Hamburg before, after or during your cruise with my port guide and tips of what to see and do.

Hamburg, located in Northern Germany, is one of the largest cruise ports in the world. As well as being a popular destination on many Northern Europe cruise itineraries, it is a homeport and turnaround port for several cruise lines.

While the city may not be the first place that springs to mind when you are planning a European cruise, Hamburg has a lot to offer. It is perhaps one of the more underrated cities in Europe. 

So, if you have Hamburg on your cruise itinerary, whether that is for a day stop or a start or finish point, read on for more information on the port. I also share some tips on what to see and do in the city based on my experiences when I visited.

A little bit about Hamburg

Hamburg is Germany’s second-largest city. Sitting on the banks of the Elbe River, the port city is known as the ‘Gateway to the World’.

The bustling port city is also renowned for its culture, history and nightlight. It is also packed with more attractions you could possibly visit in one trip, including a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Perhaps the most surprising thing that Hamburg is famous for is the number of bridges it has. With over 2,500, it has more than Amsterdam, London and Venice combined!

Whether you are interested in art, culture, or history or just want to visit the city where The Beatles spent their early days, Hamburg is a fantastic city to visit.

Hamburg Cruise Port

The Port of Hamburg is the largest seaport in Germany and the third largest in Europe. It plays an important role in the distribution of goods around Europe and the rest of the world. 

It is also a popular destination for cruise ships, offering both day visits and overnight stops. As well as being a stop on many Northern Europe cruise itineraries, the port is a starting (and finishing) point for transatlantic crossings and world voyages.

There are three places where cruise ships can dock at the Hamburg Cruise Center.

Steinwerder

To find out where your ship will dock, check with your cruise line. You can also view the Port of Hamburg’s cruise sailing schedule to see if your ship is listed. 

Many cruise lines will offer a shuttle bus from the cruise port to the city centre. Check with the cruise company you are travelling with for further information.

Located on the Elbe River, near the city’s famous fish market, the Hamburg Cruise Centre Altona accommodates ships up to 300m in length.

The city centre is around 15-20 minutes away by public transport. Options include a public ferry which will take you from the Hamburg cruise terminal to city centre.

Facilities at the glass-fronted terminal include a cafe.

Tip | If you get a chance, pop up to the roof terrace for a panoramic view of the Port of Hamburg. 

Hamburg’s waterfront has been transformed over the years thanks to a large redevelopment project. 

Part of the port area has been regenerated as Hafencity, a European city for the 21st Century and one of the largest urban regeneration schemes in Europe.

As part of this, a new terminal is currently being built at the Hamburg Cruise Centre HafenCity. Due to open in 2025, the modern terminal will be part of a hotel and shopping complex. Two berths will be available.

While this is being built, a temporary terminal at Baakenhoft is being used, which is in the eastern part of HafenCity.

The Cruise Center Steinwerder is where many of the newest (and largest) cruise ships dock. 

It can handle ships of more than 400 meters in length so if you are cruising on a large cruise ship (think mega ship style) there is a good chance you will dock here. There are two terminal buildings that can accommodate 8,000 people embarking and disembarking.  

Hamburg’s city centre is less than 20 minutes away. Shuttle buses may be offered by your cruise line.

Things to do in Hamburg

Some popular Hamburg attractions and experiences you can do during your time in port include…

• Taking a boat tour around the Speicherstadt warehouse network, a UNESCO World Heritage site. 
• Marveling at Miniatur Wunderland – the world’s largest model railway system (and includes a mini Hamburg)
• Touring the impressive Elbphilharmonie Building , a spectacular looking concert hall on the waterfront
• Doing some retail therapy at Jungfernstieg, a popular shopping street
• Taking in the view of the city from the top of the tower of St Michael’s Church, one of the most beautiful baroque churches in northern Germany
• Getting an insight into the government of Hamburg during a tour of the town hall
• Enjoying the view of the harbour and explore historic waterfront buildings (and maybe grab an ice cream or coffee!) at St Pauli’s Landungsbrucken.
• Taking in the art at Hamburger Kunsthalle, one of the largest art museums in Germany.
• Visiting the St Nikolai Memorial – much of the church was destroyed in World War II, however, the ruins have been turned into a museum and memorial (photos below). There is also an observation deck at the top of the tower.

Popular shore excursions

Hamburg is a port you can explore on your own. It is a very walkable city and has an extensive public transport network. 

However, you may wish to let your cruise line take care of the logistics and book a shore excursion . This takes some of the hassle out of figuring out what you want to see and how to get there. You will also have the benefit of knowing the cruise ship won’t leave without you. 

Some of the shore excursions offered on a cruise to Hamburg include

• Touring the highlights and most popular attractions (by foot, boat or both)
• Exploring the city on a guided bike tour
• Taking a day trip to Berlin
• Visiting nearby medieval towns of Luneburg and Lubeck, a World Heritage site.

Tip | If there is an excursion you really want to do, book in advance to avoid disappointment as they can sell out fairly quickly.

Things to know about Hamburg

• Hamburg is known for its maritime heritage
• It is one of Germany’s wealthiest cities
• It has the second largest red light district in Europe – the Reeperbahn
• Hamburg is sometimes referred to as ‘The Venice of the North” due to its many waterways
• The Beatles learned their trade in Hamburg, playing over 270 shows between 1960 and 1962.

The Last Word

Whether you are a culture lover, history buff or just want a great day in port, Hamburg is a super destination to visit.

From its modern architecture and vibrant cultural scene to its rich maritime history, Hamburg is a city that has it all.

With a little planning in advance of your stop at Hamburg cruise port, you can have a great day in this fabulous city.

The port has large shipyards for shipbuilding and repairs and refurbishments of mega yachts and large cruise liners . A big part of the port's cruise ship schedule has listed (as homeported) vessels from the fleets of the German companies AIDA, TUI , Hapag-Lloyd , Fred Olsen , as well as CroisiEurope riverboats.

In the period October-April, HafenCity offers numerous sightseeing tour options, including the harbor waterway. There are also many great places for leisure, dining, shopping, and entertainment.

AIDA Kreuzfahrten is Hamburg Port's largest customer with year-round homeporting/turnaround operations. In 2023, AIDA alone had booked 124 ship berthings. AIDA also sponsors the annual maritime events Hamburg Harbour Birthday (May 7th) and the Hamburg Cruise Days (in September).

HafenCity Hamburg

HafenCity is an inner-city district of Hamburg. In the year 2000 (February 29), the city's Senate gave its approval to the Masterplan for building the new district. This project transformed the port's fringes (around downtown).

The plan originated in 1991 (after the fall of USSR / Cold War's end). Since 1995, the port's owner HafenCity Hamburg GmbH company started acquiring (secretly purchasing) crucial land areas that were private properties, adding them to the port's city-owned land.

In May 1997 was officially presented the "Vision HafenCity" design plan to the public. The plan required the inner city to regain its waterfront land (primarily Altona's River Elbe embankment, between Fischmarkt and Museumshafen). This affected only narrow land areas on the riverfront.

An area of approx 1,6 km2 (0,6 mi2) had be developed into a luxury inner-city district with mixed types of buildings (residential, leisure, cultural, business). The HafenCity area was removed from the Port of Hamburg territory. Under public law, a special fund was established to hold public lands in the city's ownership. The new Altenwerder container terminal was also funded by the city.

HafenCity urban development planning was launched in April 1999. The Hamburgplan project's official approval was announced in October 1999. HafenCity's urban redevelopment plan was approved by the city's Senate in February 2000. The plan was then opened up to discussion through various public events.

The Masterplan integrated existing and new buildings with the port's waterways. It also included the elevation of buildings (for flood protection) and the development of HafenCity's neighborhoods.

All the city's cruise tourism activities are managed by CGH (Cruise Gate Hamburg GmbH). The 2015 -established company is co-owned by Hamburg Airport (49%) and Hamburg Port Authority (51%). CGH is in charge of berth assignments at Steinwerder Terminal and (since 2016) also at the terminals HafenCity and Altona. In September 2018, CGH turned its cruise terminal parking into multi-use parking that is also available for trucks (~50 trailer lots) on no-ship days. The parking is CCTV-monitored and has restrooms.

Hamburg cruise port

Port Hamburg handles 10000+ ship calls per year. It has a total of 43 km / 27 mi quay walls. It serves 1200+ freight trains per week. It has 4 top-modern containership terminals, 7300+ logistic firms. The port handles over 0,5 million cruise tourists annually.

In 2015, MSC Cruises brought to the city 100,000+ tourists via 13 itineraries/visits. MSC Splendida (max capacity 3929 pax) became the biggest cruise vessel homeported in Hamburg. On June 1, 2015, while berthed (at Altona Terminal), AIDAsol was powered pierside by an LNG Hybrid Barge. The barge is a floating powerplant, on which LNG (liquefied natural gas) is heated and passed on to generators (5 motors) to produce electricity for the hotel operations on the ship while docked in port. The total power output provided by the barge is 7,5 MV. The new practice reduces greatly bad emissions and particle discharge in port (NO emissions by up to 80%, CO2 emissions by 30%).

In October 2015, Costa Group ( Carnival Corporation 's subsidiary controlling 3 brands - AIDA, Costa, Costa Asia) opened in Hamburg its Carnival Maritime facility. Carnival Maritime Center (supported by Lufthansa Technik) improves ship-to-shore communications by processing in real-time port traffic data with a single goal - to reduce to minimum cruise ship incidents in the port. Carnival Maritime also monitors the ships' fuel consumption and wastewater.

In February 2016, Carnival Corporation announced its collaboration with the Hamburg port's Vessel Coordination Center (abbrev HVCC) in order to facilitate port entries for the vessels of its subsidiary companies AIDA and Costa. Carnival will share the ships' expected port arrival/departure times with the port's NTK department, which will match the provided info with the port's current vessel traffic data and adjust (if necessary) the ship's speed. The optimized speed control results in fuel savings (lower fuel consumption and bad emissions) and reduced wait times in port. The HVCC center serves ocean-going ships (cruise vessels, feeder and inland waterway vessels) in Port of Hamburg, while its NTK department is controls the traffic flow. The HVCC is a joint venture of port's 2 containership terminal operators - HHLA and CTH (Eurogate).

On May 7, 2016, in Hamburg was christened the new AIDA ship AIDAprima . The vessel arrived in port together with AIDAaura .

Savvino-storozhevsky monastery and museum.

Zvenigorod's most famous sight is the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery, which was founded in 1398 by the monk Savva from the Troitse-Sergieva Lavra, at the invitation and with the support of Prince Yury Dmitrievich of Zvenigorod. Savva was later canonised as St Sabbas (Savva) of Storozhev. The monastery late flourished under the reign of Tsar Alexis, who chose the monastery as his family church and often went on pilgrimage there and made lots of donations to it. Most of the monastery’s buildings date from this time. The monastery is heavily fortified with thick walls and six towers, the most impressive of which is the Krasny Tower which also serves as the eastern entrance. The monastery was closed in 1918 and only reopened in 1995. In 1998 Patriarch Alexius II took part in a service to return the relics of St Sabbas to the monastery. Today the monastery has the status of a stauropegic monastery, which is second in status to a lavra. In addition to being a working monastery, it also holds the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum.

Belfry and Neighbouring Churches

Located near the main entrance is the monastery's belfry which is perhaps the calling card of the monastery due to its uniqueness. It was built in the 1650s and the St Sergius of Radonezh’s Church was opened on the middle tier in the mid-17th century, although it was originally dedicated to the Trinity. The belfry's 35-tonne Great Bladgovestny Bell fell in 1941 and was only restored and returned in 2003. Attached to the belfry is a large refectory and the Transfiguration Church, both of which were built on the orders of Tsar Alexis in the 1650s.  

To the left of the belfry is another, smaller, refectory which is attached to the Trinity Gate-Church, which was also constructed in the 1650s on the orders of Tsar Alexis who made it his own family church. The church is elaborately decorated with colourful trims and underneath the archway is a beautiful 19th century fresco.

Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is the oldest building in the monastery and among the oldest buildings in the Moscow Region. It was built between 1404 and 1405 during the lifetime of St Sabbas and using the funds of Prince Yury of Zvenigorod. The white-stone cathedral is a standard four-pillar design with a single golden dome. After the death of St Sabbas he was interred in the cathedral and a new altar dedicated to him was added.

Under the reign of Tsar Alexis the cathedral was decorated with frescoes by Stepan Ryazanets, some of which remain today. Tsar Alexis also presented the cathedral with a five-tier iconostasis, the top row of icons have been preserved.

Tsaritsa's Chambers

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is located between the Tsaritsa's Chambers of the left and the Palace of Tsar Alexis on the right. The Tsaritsa's Chambers were built in the mid-17th century for the wife of Tsar Alexey - Tsaritsa Maria Ilinichna Miloskavskaya. The design of the building is influenced by the ancient Russian architectural style. Is prettier than the Tsar's chambers opposite, being red in colour with elaborately decorated window frames and entrance.

At present the Tsaritsa's Chambers houses the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum. Among its displays is an accurate recreation of the interior of a noble lady's chambers including furniture, decorations and a decorated tiled oven, and an exhibition on the history of Zvenigorod and the monastery.

Palace of Tsar Alexis

The Palace of Tsar Alexis was built in the 1650s and is now one of the best surviving examples of non-religious architecture of that era. It was built especially for Tsar Alexis who often visited the monastery on religious pilgrimages. Its most striking feature is its pretty row of nine chimney spouts which resemble towers.
