Stena Line (from Gothenburg) and Color Line (from Oslo) dock daily in Kiel during the season. If you're spending time in Kiel between sailings, the audio tour is a good way to make the most of a few hours in the city - and the Laboe submarine is worth the trip if you have longer.
Ferry terminals are separate from the Ostseekai cruise terminal - the audio tour starting point is about 15–20 minutes walk from the ferry docks, or a short taxi ride.
Schedule data sourced from CruiseDig and CruiseTimetables. Always confirm timing with your cruise line - times can change. The Port of Kiel publishes the official schedule.
