Things to do in Berlin

If Berlin had a résumé, it would be... extensive. This city has witnessed empires rise, walls fall and currywurst become a national treasure. It’s part open-air museum, part cultural playground and 100% worth exploring. From landmark-hopping to back-alley art walks, Berlin’s story is the history of the modern world.

Shore excursions to explore in Berlin (Warnemünde)

    Berlin by Train & the Royal Route to Potsdam

    Start with Berlin’s greatest hits, then escape to Potsdam — a city where Prussian kings once built palaces, planted gardens and probably argued about statues.

Experience the Berlin port on your next cruise

If you’re on a Baltic & Scandinavian cruise or one touring Europe, you should be aware that Berlin doesn’t have a cruise terminal — but don’t let that fool you. You’ll dock in Warnemünde, then hop a train straight into the pulse of Germany’s capital. It’s a bold day trip, but that’s part of the thrill. And if you’d rather keep it local, Rostock and Schwerin have charm, history and fewer crowds — not a bad tradeoff.
