Berlin Germany in a Day - Carnival Cruise Warnemunde Port
In July 2023 we took a cruise in Europe for 33 days out of Dover England. Our first cruise was a 12 Day Baltic Cruise. The 2nd port stop was Warnemunde Germany where we took the train into Berlin where we visited the Berlin Wall Memorial and took a Free Walking Tour once again.
A cruise excursion from Warnemunde to Berlin via train offered by Carnival Cruises would have cost us $580 for 2 people. We pre-booked our train tickets online and then purchased a day metro pass to explore the city. After having some food and drinks before leaving Berlin we ended up saving $400 over the price of a Carnival Excursion.

Join us as we take you on a whirlwind tour of Berlin, visiting history locations throughout the city. Before returning to our cruise ship we explored the cute port town of Warnemunde.

I live in Berlin and much as though I think that Berlin is worth seeing, I definitely advise against such a day trip from a cruise. The single trip from station to station takes a hair under three hours at the best of times - leaving you precious little time between lots of time on trains. Furthermore, Deutsche Bahn is not terribly reliable. So if they choose to screw up on the day you decide to take that trip, you may well miss your ship and have to play catch-up from Warnemünde. Warnemünde is a relaxed seaside town to visit for a day - as many locals do. If you want to see a bigger place, take the S-Bahn to Rostock and visit its centre; it's charming enough and has a tradition as a major trading port and member of the Hanse.

It is definitely risky taking the journey but we figured it was worth the risk as we were not sure if/when we would have a chance to visit Berlin. We loved exploring Warnemunde before getting back on the ship.

@@OurMidlifeVan Your trip went well, obviously. It is just a major risk - friends of ours have been stranded on a small unstaffed station in the boondocks for five hours a few weeks ago. Deutsche Bahn has very limited liability for delays - so if you have to chase your cruiseship to the next port of call, the bill is on the passenger and all Deutsche Bahn will refund is either a quarter or half of the fare of the trip that was delayed.

Trains in Germany are not what they used to be. I grow up in Germany in the 70's and you could set your clocks to the accuracy of the schedule. With that said, it's still a great way to get around.
"Three years of German..." Uh huh.
