Highlights of Frankfurt Sightseeing Cruise
- Frankfurt is a city in the heart of Germany that is full of contrasts yet successfully manages to retain its historic heart with traditional arts whilst also having a bustling international commercial banking center.
- Shiny silver skyscrapers tower over the city to create an impressive skyline, the River Main being the ideal place to experience these panoramic modern views.
- The financial district, which is known by locals as "Little Manhattan", contains Frankfurts tallest building which measures 337 meters (1,107 feet) tall and there's also the European Bank, both of which can be viewed from the boat. Flip the coin and cruise along the river to see Frankfurts historic heart and you'll be able to admire Frankfurt Cathedral and the Sachsenhausen district with its typical pubs and embankment views.
- A river cruise really helps first time visitors to be able to see both sides of this wonderful city.
