What we will do

• Our shuttle bus from the port will take us on a short trip to the Bremerhaven Maritime Museum, just a few meters away from the drop off point.
  
• We'll have the chance to visit one of the largest collections of maritime relics in the world, tracing the history of seafaring as we wind our way through the museum's rooms and the park outside.
  
• We'll begin our visit inside the museum with its displays of ship equipment from past centuries, uniforms, ship decks and smaller craft. One of the highlights is the an incredibly well-preserved Hanseatic cog that dates back to 1380, the only surviving example of this kind of boat, which was widely used by Medieval traders.
  
• Our visit will continue outside, where we can admire real ships in the open air, including the large bark Seute Deern, the polar vessel Gronland and a U-boat from the Second World War.
  
• The museum is also a research centre and a point of reference for maritime science in Northern Europe.
  
• At the end of the visit we'll return to the port by shuttle bus.
