Buddy Meet-up – Harbor and Elbe tour

*** Only international students who have already been accepted into the PIASTA Welcome Buddy Program and their Welcome Buddies are invited to Buddy Meetings. We appreciate your understanding ***

For everyone participating in PIASTA’s Welcome Buddy Program, including both international students and their Welcome Buddies from Universität Hamburg, we are organizing Buddy meet-ups!

Looking to meet other Buddy pairs in a laid-back setting? Come to our Buddy meet-up! It’s the perfect place to discuss common interests and experiences. Discover what other people are studying, find out who lives in your neighborhood, learn about campus, and share recommendations for cultural activities, nightlife, and local trips. You might even find some like-minded students eager to make plans with!

This time, we’re embarking on a port and Elbe river tour! The PIASTA Tour isn’t a typical harbor tour; instead, you’ll explore landmarks and beautiful spots along the Elbe on foot and with the HVV ferry. A stroll through the Old Elbe Tunnel, a visit to Övelgönne Elbe beach, and a view of Hamburg’s skyline from the water await you!

Join us in exploring Germany’s largest harbor and enjoy the evening hours at the beautiful Elbe beach with a stunning view of the harbor scenery.

The Welcome Buddy Team at PIASTA is eagerly looking forward to meeting you!

Language: This event will be in German and/or English, so feel free to participate, regardless of your preferred language. Our tutors are also multilingual and eager to communicate with you in several other languages.

Note: To take the ferry, you need a Hamburg Public Transport Association (HVV) ticket. Using your semester public transport pass or any other HVV ticket (e.g., a day pass or weekly pass), you can take not only buses and trains but also ferries. If you do not have a semester public transport pass or another ticket, you can also buy one on the tour.

If you have any questions about this event or about PIASTA’s Welcome Buddy Program in general, please contact the Welcome Buddy Program coordination team.

By the way, you can find additional information about us and our offers on the PIASTA website.

We look forward to meeting you!
