Romanshorn harbor tour

Romanshorn's harbor is one of the largest on Lake Constance. Reason enough to learn more about its history, Romanshorn's town life, and the surrounding Lake Constance. Captain Ruedi Fürst takes his guests on board the MS Zeppelin.

Welcome aboard

As you stroll through the harbor, you can see the MS Zeppelin, decked out in colorful flags, from a distance. Once you reach the dock, the passionate boat captain Ruedi Fürst welcomes his guests every Sunday during the summer months aboard this historic ship. On one hand, there’s plenty of space on the covered sun deck, where you can enjoy the fresh lake breeze. On the other hand, when it’s cool outside, guests can enjoy the cozy interior.

New Zealand is following suit

As soon as the ship sets sail, it heads west, passing the Kornhaus and the Swiss Lake Constance Shipping Company’s shipyard. Guests are accompanied by a guide who provides insight into the history and modern-day life of Romanshorn. Significant and curious facts allow you to lose yourself in a journey through time, exploring the region’s fascinating transportation history and highlighting the importance of access to the lake. How else would you have learned that the exact same Asco fountain stands on the other side of the world?

Land in sight

In between, Ruedi Fürst also serves up refreshing drinks to quench your thirst. Time flies. As we pass the Inseli fishing harbor, the one-and-a-half-hour cruise draws to a close. Catch one last glimpse of the city skyline or the mountain scenery of the Säntis before it’s time to say, “Ahoy!” and welcome back to shore! If you’d like to enjoy this experience for yourself, you can book the harbor tour either on scheduled dates or for private group excursions. Children and wheelchair users are also warmly welcome on board.
