Getting to Berlin from the Warnemünde cruise port

Cruise ships sold as Berlin call at Warnemünde, about 240 km north of the capital. The train is the cheapest way, with the S-Bahn to Rostock and then the RE5 every two hours, and takes about 3 hours each way. A taxi or private car cuts the trip to about 2 hours 30 minutes at 420 euros or more, so most day visitors need a long call or an overnight stay.
