For our visitors who want to learn more about life on board a submarine and the technical details, our guided tours with our trained guides are recommended.

Our guides will guide you - for an additional charge of €5.00 per person (duration of the tour approx. 45 minutes) - not only through the submarine with great background information, but also exclusively through the command center.

For all visitor groups with at least 5 people

Since the guided tours through the submarine can only take place in small groups due to the space available, it is therefore recommended for larger groups (minimum number of 5 people) to make a booking request using the form below.

The date of the desired tour must be at least 3 days in the future from the booking request.

For all other visitors (less than 5 people)

You can buy a guided tour directly on site at the box office - in addition to the admission ticket - and take part in one of the guided tours taking place. Please note that there may be waiting times here for organizational reasons.

Private tour

There is also the option to book a private tour without outside participants to get a more comprehensive insight into life and work on board a submarine. For this alternative, please use the form >> private tour <<.

Important for everyone

Of course, you can also visit submarine 434 without a guided tour.
