Warnemunde Shore Excursions - Berlin Day Trips, Schwerin Castle & Tours from Rostock Cruise Port
Warnemunde is the cruise port for Rostock and one of the most important embarkation and disembarkation ports on Northern European itineraries. Day trips from the Warnemunde cruise port to Berlin cover approximately 150 miles south - a drive of 2 to 2.5 hours each way on the A19 and A24 motorways - putting Germany's capital city within reach of a 12-hour private shore excursion. Berlin rewards that journey with a density of history unmatched by any other European city: the Brandenburg Gate and Reichstag at the heart of the reunified city, the Holocaust Memorial and Topography of Terror documenting the Nazi era, the remnants of the Berlin Wall at the East Side Gallery and Checkpoint Charlie, and the vast Prussian palace estates of Potsdam just beyond the city limits. Private Shore Trips offers five specialist Berlin day trips from Warnemunde - first-time highlights, WWII and Third Reich history, Cold War Berlin, Jewish Berlin, and the palaces and gardens of Potsdam - each led by a local expert tour guide with years of specialist knowledge in that period of history.
For guests who prefer a shorter drive, Schwerin Castle is only 75 miles from the Warnemunde cruise port - one of the most photogenic castle complexes in Germany, a 19th century neo-Gothic palace set on an island in the middle of a lake. Medieval Lubeck, a UNESCO World Heritage Hanseatic city whose seven red-brick church towers have defined the Baltic skyline since the 13th century, is 90 miles southwest. All Warnemunde shore excursions and Berlin day trips from Private Shore Trips include an English-speaking driver-guide or specialist local tour guide, a private vehicle for your group only, and our back-to-ship guarantee. Warnemunde to Berlin transfers are also available for passengers ending their cruise. Reserve with a $50 deposit.
