Hanseatic Rostock and Lovely Warnemuende
Your tour starts directly in front of the cruise terminal. An enthusiastic local guide will share insight into the local history and present with you and take you to the most prominent places in Warnemuende and Rostock. The tour starts with a stroll through Warnemuende, the fisherman’s village and seaside resort your ship docks in today. See the typical gabled houses of the 18th and 19th century with their half-timbered facades and ornamented doors and gables. The authentic “Old Stream” canal with its fisherman’s boats, boutiques, cafés and often street art performance is an absolute must-see. Above all towers the lighthouse of 1898 and the sandy beach. Maybe return here after the tour for an individual walk along the promenade area and some souvenir shopping or cake degustation.
