Package holiday to Kiel

Kiel, the state capital of Schleswig-Holstein, is a port city on the Baltic Sea, inextricably linked to the sea. The Kiel Fjord, a 17 km long natural arm of the sea, runs through the city and makes Kiel one of the most maritime cities in Germany.

The Kiel Week is the largest sailing event in the world and also the largest folk festival in Northern Europe: Every last week of June, over 3 million visitors come to experience sailing regattas, live music, international street food, and the tall ship parade on the fjord. The atmosphere is unique — the entire city transforms into a festival ground.

The Kiel Canal (NOK) is the most frequented artificial waterway in the world: At the Holtenau lock, visitors can watch huge container ships, cruise liners, and tankers up close as they traverse the 98 km long passage between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. A free spectacle for ship enthusiasts.

The German submarine museum U-995 in Labö, 15 km north of Kiel, is a walk-through submarine from World War II. Right next to it stands the Marine Memorial, an 85-meter high tower with panoramic views over the Kiel Bay.

The Kiellinie, Kiel's waterfront promenade, stretches 3.5 km along the water, passing sailing clubs, the GEOMAR aquarium, and the ferry terminals. Ferries to Scandinavia depart from here — Kiel is Germany's most important ferry port to Norway and Sweden.

Kiel particularly impresses with diverse holiday experiences. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
