What Wikivoyage says about moving around
  • Get aroundIn the summer bus 218 takes you along the scenic ride through the Grunewald forest in West Berlin, starting at the subway station Theodor-Heuss-Platz (U2) and ending near the famous Pfaueninsel in South West Berlin, where you can take a small ferry to said island and visit the park and the small castle there.
  • Get aroundFerries usually have space for bike but can get crowded during peak times and good weather.
  • Get aroundDespite not being a maritime city like Hamburg or Venice, Berlin does have usable waterways and the BVG run a couple of ferries, which can be accessed with regular BVG tickets.
  • Get aroundMost of the ferries are of local interest only, but the Ferry line F10 covers across the Wannsee and connects to the S-Bahn at one end.
  • Get aroundMore of a tourist attraction than actual practical transportation is Ferry F24, which is the only ferry operated by a rowing boat in Berlin and the only rowing boat ferry that is part of any public transit ticketing system in Germany.
