Welcome aboard a quietly festive, pre‑Christmas evening on the Weser: Hal Över’s Abendliche Lichterfahrt mit winterlichem Büffet invites guests to toast with a complimentary Glühwein or alkoholfreien Apfelpunsch and settle into a ‘‘floating restaurant’’ for a leisurely two-and-a-half-hour run as the city unfolds in holiday light along both banks.

A Floating Winter Buffet
An onboard winter buffet of hot and cold dishes is served while guests are welcomed with a complimentary mulled wine or non‑alcoholic apple punch—an intimate, dinner‑style experience set against Bremen’s illuminated riverfront.
Weser by Night
The vessel glides up‑ and downstream so both sides of the Weser present themselves in glanzvollem Licht, offering panoramic views of Bremen’s riverside as darkness deepens.
Designed for Holiday Gatherings
The cruise is promoted as an ideal setting for small groups, companies and clubs looking for a memorable pre‑Christmas celebration; for group bookings of ten or more the operator recommends direct contact via email.
