Hop on board for a 3-hour trip during the Kieler Woche – an experience for the whole family! Enjoy the impressive view of the sailing ships and experience maritime adventures together. Join in and immerse yourself in the world of the Kieler Woche! Of course, you can also help out during the sailing or take the helm of this traditional sailing ship yourself.

Kieler Woche

No week is like this. For 9 days, the Kieler Woche combines the world’s biggest sailing event with Northern Europe’s biggest summer festival. That promises cultural highlights and fun parties throughout the city – all open air!

The maritime highlight is the Windjammer parade with around 100 traditional ships. Barges, brigs, and schooners then sail – usually with the largest Windjammer in front – out of Kiel’s fjord. During the Kieler Woche, however, a small parade takes place each time. We offer various day and evening tours for solo travellers and groups of 20 people or more. Finally, the Kieler Woche is traditionally concluded on the last Sunday with a big fireworks display.

The concept for the Kieler Woche was conceived as early as 1882. Back then, however, the main focus was on the sailing races. Since the end of the Second World War, the aim of the modern Kieler Woche was and is, “to improve communication between the world’s peoples and make a contribution to peace and friendship.”

The Kieler Woche will take place in and around the Kieler Fjord from 22 to 30 June 2024!

Frequently asked questions

We still handle your bookings personally and therefore do not have an automatic booking system. This way, we can enable you to reserve individual places for a few days without any obligation. This allows you, for example, to arrange your holiday without someone stealing your place from under your nose. For this reason, we cannot keep track of the exact number of free places on a daily basis. However, we regularly check the availability of our sailing holidays. Therefore, you can generally assume that plenty of free places are still available on all trips that are not marked as ‘fully booked’ or ‘Last Minute’. Call us or use our booking form if you want to know the exact number of places available.

If you are travelling alone and have not booked a private cabin, you will be accommodated in a shared cabin. Shared cabins are normally divided by gender. Only on the Belle Amie and Seatrips Yachts do they sometimes have mixed cabins.

Yes, vegetarians and allergies/intolerances can be catered for on most ships. However, there is only one menu per day on the programme. Therefore, please let us know during your booking if you have any special dietary requirements.

In principle, all our trips are suitable for both experienced and novice sailors. The professional crew on board will teach you everything you need to know. In some cases (e.g. on Atlantic crossings) initial sailing experience may be an advantage/requirement. In this case, this will be clearly indicated in the cruise description.
