drsel Posted July 3, 2022 #1 Share Posted July 3, 2022 We are planning to book MSC Preziosa at Hamburg, MSC Fantasia at Kiel & MSC Poesia at Warnemunde back to back cruises. How to travel using public transport from MSC Preziosa docked at Hamburg to MSC Fantasia docked at Kiel MSC Fantasia docked at Kiel to MSC Poesia docked at Wanemunde Thanks!

drsel Posted July 3, 2022 Author #2 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Is this easily possible between 9.00 to 13.00 (disembarking time to embarkation time, same day) A) Cruise Center 3" Steinwerder at Hamburg to Ostuferhafen Terminal's Berth 1 at Kiel 1) Taxi from Cruise Center 3" in the industrial harbor area of Steinwerder at Hamburg to Hamburg Hbf, 2) Regional train from Hamburg Hbf to Kiel Hbf, (buy on the spot tickets?) 3) Taxi from Kiel Hbf to Ostuferhafen Terminal's Berth 1 at Kiel B) Ostuferhafen Terminal's Berth 1 at Kiel to Warnemunde cruise terminal 1) Taxi from Ostuferhafen Terminal's Berth 1 at Kiel to Kiel HBf 2) Regional train from Kiel Hbf to Hamburg Hbf to Rostock Hbf 3) Taxi from Rostock Hbf to Warnemunde cruise terminal?

8420PR Posted July 3, 2022 #3 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Hamburg to Kiel --> This looks do-able - the train journey is about 90 minutes, running every 30 minutes. Kiel to Warnemund --> I don't see a way using public transport in 4 hours, especially as the connection time in Hamburg looks only 6 minutes, and the train to Rostock only once every 2 hours. I think the only realistic option is to look for a transfer service. If you do take the train, it is probably faster to take the train to Warnemund instead of a taxi from Rostock.

drsel Posted July 3, 2022 Author #4 Share Posted July 3, 2022 (edited) I can adjust the dates of the 3 cruise-- What about Ostuferhafen Terminal's Berth 1 at Kiel to Cruise Center 3" Steinwerder at Hamburg Cruise Center 3" Steinwerder at Hamburg to Warnemunde cruise terminal MSC Fantasia docked at Kiel to MSC Preziosa docked at Hamburg MSC Preziosa docked at Hamburg to MSC Poesia docked at Warnemunde Edited July 3, 2022 by drsel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nunagoras Posted July 3, 2022 #5 Share Posted July 3, 2022 I know, you're asking for public transportation, but considering lots of connections, that might not even to be the easiest and the most economically efficient way to go. From Hamburg to Kiel and return, MSC used to have a shuttle bus running, at least from ship to center city. Then a taxi may suffix to the next port. For the other leg to Warnemunde I don't really know if they have a shuttle or not. Considering long distances, a transfer service may be worth to consider. Taxis in Germany use to be on the expensive side of the pound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drsel Posted July 3, 2022 Author #6 Share Posted July 3, 2022 (edited) I decided to spend 3N & 7N in Hamburg in between cruises. That will make it easier Hamburg Hbf to Kiel Hbf, taxi to Ostuferhafen MSC Fantasia (Ostuferhafen Terminal's Berth 1 at Kiel) Taxi to Kiel Hbf, then train to Hamburg Hbf 3N Hamburg Hbf Taxi to Hamburg Cruise center Steinwerder (18-40min) MSC Preziosa 3 (Cruise Center 3" in the industrial harbor area of Steinwerder at Hamburg) Taxi to Hamburg Hbf 7N Hamburg (+Bremen, +Heide Park, +Lubeck, +Schwerin & Wismar) Train from Hamburg Hbf to Rostock Hbf to Warnemunde MSC Poesia (Warnemunde cruise centre) Train from Warnemunde to Berlin Hbf 5N Berlin (+Potsdam) Edited July 3, 2022 by drsel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RudiRatlos Posted July 3, 2022 #7 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Good decision, will make it easier for you! Kiel - Warnemuende by public transport would take about 6 hrs. For Hamburg to Kiel as well as Kiel to Hamburg, you may be able to book a shuttle through MSC. This is is usually offered for passengers cruising from/to Kiel.

Rare steamboats Posted July 4, 2022 #8 Share Posted July 4, 2022 BTW MSC is also offering a (paid) shuttle from Steinwerder to Hamburg Central Station and also from Kiel Central Station to Ostuferhafen. steamboats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
