Elbe River, Dresden, Germany

WEIßE FLOTTE SACHSEN GmbH

Explore Dresden aboard an enchanting paddle steamer or a contemporary boat cruise along the picturesque Elbe River. This leisurely journey, lasting approximately 1.5 or 2.5 hours, offers visitors the opportunity to immerse themselves in the city's charm from the water's edge.



Embark upon a captivating journey along the Elbe River aboard a scenic vessel, immersing oneself in the enchanting allure and rich historical tapestry of Dresden. This voyage promises an unforgettable exploration of the city’s quintessential charms and landmarks.

Departure commences from the Terrassenufer, where one can marvel at the grandeur of the three iconic Elbe Palaces: Albrechtsberg Palace, Eckberg Palace, and Lingner Palace. These architectural masterpieces stand testament to the city's illustrious past, each contributing to the picturesque landscape of the Elbe Valley.

Undertake a leisurely cruise through the charming neighborhoods surrounding these magnificent structures. Admire the beauty of the Old Town of Dresden, its narrow cobblestone streets, and quaint alleys that weave their way between towering spires and ornate facades.

As the sun sets over the Elbe, pause for reflection at the Loschwitz Villa Quarter, where four renowned Elbe Bridges grace the riverbanks. Among these, the Loschwitz Bridge, affectionately called the “Blue Wonder,” offers a breathtaking view of the skyline, particularly when illuminated by the setting sun. Its distinctive blue hue contrasts beautifully with the vibrant hues of the evening sky, creating a scene both serene and spectacular.

This tour concludes with a return to the Terrassenufer, where the experience begins anew, offering visitors an opportunity to relish in the timeless beauty and cultural heritage of Dresden.
