Quiet and full of charm: Since 2024, the harbor barge Josephine has been sailing with a modern and eco-friendly electric drive. Perfect for special occasions celebrated in style and with an eye to the future. Whether team event, wedding, or birthday celebration – from April to October, the Josephine takes you on an emission-free cruise along the Spree and Landwehr Canal, relaxed and climate-friendly, past Berlin’s most beautiful landmarks.
