Top Rostock Tours, Sightseeing & Cruises

Enjoy an action-packed day of adventures by opting for a Hanseatic Rostock and Warnemunde shore excursion. You won’t have to worry about figuring out public transport routes, as you’ll be picked up from the port upon arrival. A guide will take you on a walking tour of both Warnemunde and Rostock, so you can learn about their history, and see areas that can’t be accessed by car or bus. Walk past Warnemunde’s historic 18th-century houses, the Old Stream Canal, and explore Rostock’s scenic old town highlights.

This shore excursion thoughtfully combines our classic All-in-One Best of Berlin experience with a visit to Sachsenhausen, the largest concentration camp near Berlin.

Afterwards, your guide will accompany you to Berlin, where you’ll explore the city’s most important landmarks.
