We had an informed, personalized tour by friendly and patient Andres. He studied history and has been in Berlin for 10 years. He answered all our questions very knowledgeably and gave us recommendations for things to do in Berlin after the tour and dinner that night. Highly recommend!
It an interesting tour to get to know more about the history of Berlin. Our guide Giles really elevated the experience. He was amazing and told the stories very well! Could have even been a little bit longer in my opinion.
We had a lovely walking tour with Bri. We started at Alexanderplatz and finished around the Brandenberg gate. She showed us the many historical sites along the way. Extremely knowledgeable and I highly recommend Bri.

Very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a good time and learned a lot. 2 full hours of talk and description of wherever we we requested and hadn't seen before with lots of little tips and facts you would never discover on your own.
Basti the tour guide was very energetic and passionate about his work. The information and pace of the tour was great with cool side notes of history that most have not heard. Definitely could have spent a few more hours with him learning about this beautiful city. Thanks Basti!!!!!
Bastian was amazing! He added fun to the tour on top of learning so much. It was a great experience. Highly recommend!
Excellent tour with Pierre. He is knowledge about the Cold War and world war two. The guide was prompt and polite, taking us to places we would not have seen on our own. Pierre's tour was well worth the price we paid. Highly recommended!
