“The Canoe Berlin guys are the friendliest and kindest people! The trip with them was fun, informative and great to do something active in a trip where we mainly eat and relax. There’s very little current at all, so paddling is not hard. The vibes on the canal/ Spree River are very chill in a classic Berlin way. The views are amazing, especially when in the Spree Bay. Highly recommend!”

“Die Tour war wirklich sehr schön und auch für Anfänger geeignet. Wir können die Tour nur empfehlen! Leider hat uns eine Anfahrtsbeschreibung gefehlt. Die Straße ohne Hausnummer hat uns und unser Navi nicht weitergeholfen. Und der Hinweis dass es vom Parkplatz bis zum Treffpunkt noch etwas zu laufen ist, hätte uns nicht ganz so in Stress gebracht;-) Aber wir konnten den Veranstalter direkt telefonisch erreichen! Aber die schöne Tour hat uns entschädigt!”
