Boat Trip on the Vils: Discover Amberg Relaxed from the Water
Experience a one-hour city tour on the Vils: In the traditional boat, you glide along the historic old town, hear anecdotes about local history, and enjoy architecture up close – a discovery experience full of cultural enrichment.
On the Medieval Transport Route
The flat wooden boat follows the historic route between the Schiffbrücke and Drahthammerwiese. On the day of the event, your trip starts and ends comfortably at the Schiffbrücke in Schiffgasse – without stopping at the Drahthammerwiese. This leaves more time for views of the city wall, bridges, and the authentic atmosphere of the old town.
Sensory Impressions by the Water
Gentle splashes, reflections of the city skyline, and the scent of the river meadow create tranquility. Your guide imparts insider knowledge about attractions, craftsmanship, and shipping traditions – bringing local history to life and closer.
Comfortably Organized
The public boat trip lasts about 60 minutes. Up to 28 guests can travel per boat – ideal for couples, families, and small groups. You can purchase tickets in advance through the Tourist Information Amberg or the official ticket shop.
