Our fleet
MS RheinCargo
OUR "business ship", THE event and CHArTER ship
Originally built in 2001 in Mondorf, today's MS RheinCargo was underway for many years as the harbor tour ship MS Ostseebad Warnemünde around Rostock on the Warnow and Baltic Sea. In 2012, at the start of the scheduled operation of the Great Cologne Port Tours, we brought the gem back to its old home. Because she is operated by a separate company (M. Schmitz Personernschifffahrt GmbH & Co. KG), but marketed by us, we consider her our "business ship".
When you think of "cargo," do you tend to think of logistics or freight rather than events? No wonder: The new name MS RheinCargo reflects the strong cooperation with the operator of the Cologne and Neuss ports, RheinCargo. But somehow the name also fits, because after extensive renovations in the salon and the installation of technical refinements such as its own WLAN, conference and event technology and atmospheric LED lighting, the RheinCargo has increasingly morphed into an exclusive event and charter ship that offers the best conditions for many events, business and private celebrations.
