Uncover Western Europe

Set sail on a ferry to Germany with DFDS and explore at your own pace, with your vehicle and without having to worry about luggage restrictions. If you’re travelling by ferry to Germany from the UK, cross the Channel and reach the German border in under 4 hours by car! Alternatively, take our Newcastle-Amsterdam ferry route and disembark in Ijmuiden, less than 3 hours’ drive to Germany.

Our Kiel port in northern Germany offers excellent access to all of Germany, including major cities such as Hamburg and Berlin. Reach Kiel with a comfortable overnight crossing from Lithuania. The Danish border is also only a short drive away.

Germany’s landscape is unparalleled. Within an instant it varies from the dense, ancient woodlands of the Black Forest to the crystal waters of its countless lakes and rivers. Germany’s Romanesque revival castles offer flashes of ivory and gold amongst the rich green scenery and transport wanderers into the fairy tale world that Germany is famous for.

In direct contrast, Germany also offers some of the most modern cities in Europe, with metropolises like Berlin, Hamburg and Düsseldorf at the forefront of any and all cultural movements on the continent. Book your ferry to Germany with DFDS today, and get thinking about where you’re going, not how you’re getting there.

DFDS has one of the largest ferry networks in Europe, with routes operating to Denmark, Norway, mainland Europe and even offers trips to the Baltics, including major cities such as Amsterdam, Calais and Dunkirk. Travel with your car and explore Europe with DFDS.
