Saxon Steamship Company

A trip with the oldest and largest paddle steamer fleet in the world is quite an experience. Nine lovingly restored paddle steamers, two elegant cruising boats and two smaller motorized boats are invitation enough to explore the Elbe. The puffing steamers take you through one of the most beautiful river landscapes in Europe.
You go past famous mansions and castles on the Elbe, see strange rock formations in Saxon Switzerland, and through towns of historical and cultural significance such as Meissen and Dresden. You will be tempted to sing and dance on the "Tea Dance Cruise" or on the trips on long summer nights. The fleet can also be chartered, for a floating wedding, or any other occasion.
