Hop aboard and be amazed! Whether it’s for a company anniversary, a press conference, club party, or wedding – the “Hanseat” makes a truly spectacular setting for events. The original 1950s U-Bahn train has been painstakingly restored by HOCHBAHN and converted into a saloon carriage that is true to detail. There is capacity for up to 50 guests on a (party) tour of Hamburg’s 104 km underground network. 

Event space on wheels 

The “Hanseat” consists of two carriages connected by a passageway, one of which has been furnished true to its original design. This carriage welcomes guests with 28 seats at small tables, where they are also welcome to dine. The second carriage boasts a contemporary design, a ten-square-metre dance floor, and a spacious bar area.  


Our tip: Take a ride on the old underground circuit 

Hamburg’s first underground line, which went into operation in 1912, is 17.5 km long. It is what is known nowadays as the U3 line, and runs above ground through neighbourhoods with magnificent Wilhelminian-style mansions, as well as through parks and along canal banks. Then, travelling along the viaduct that runs between Landungsbrücken and Rödingsmarkt, passengers are treated to a wonderful view of the harbour. You will need about 40 minutes to travel along this one route.

Personal service, flexible offers 

How much extra time would you like? You get to decide on your particular route, as well as how long you wish to stay on board for.  

The first two hours in the U-Bahn network cost 840 euros, with each additional hour costing 300 euros. The cost of catering is not included in the rental price and is settled directly between the customer and the caterer.
