Loved Berlin Big Bus

We loved the big bus Berlin! It did such a great job explaining the history of Berlin. It was a great value for a family of 4. We loved our Berlin backpack and how easy It was to use.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your fantastic comments! Hopefully we'll see you again soon in one of our Big Bus cities.

Save your money

Wish we hadnt of bothered. Save yourself some money and buy a Berlin WelcomeCard. Unlimited public transport and discounts on many attractions make it excellent value. Berlin is easy to explore using public transport, and the card quickly pays for itself. Commentary boring, if it works.

Operator response

Thanks for this information and sorry that you found our tours too expensive. Obviously public transport is cheaper than a sightseeing tour. Sitting on an open top bus and being able to enjoy Berlins best views in the sunshine is however not part of the public transport offerings here and an invaluable experience that only we can offer.

The tour is a quick...

The tour is a quick glimpse of the city. A person would need to know where to get off at certain places to get an in depth visit. The whole loop takes about 2 hours.

Operator response

Thank you. Hopefully our audio commentary was helpful to decide at which stop to alight and explore more.

I highly recommend

Big Bus Company is great! They are reliable and on time. I’ve used them in many countries and have always been satisfied. The audio guide is really very informative and their operators are great and helpful. I’d like to mention, Daniel, he’s one of the drivers in the red line in Berlin, he is very kind and went out of his way to help us with directions.

Operator response

Thank you so very much for your top review, particularly your nice words for our driver Daniel! Can't wait to see you again in our next Big Bus city!

One day to see Berlin

The comments are sometimes repetitive and especially ahead of or behind the bus location. Comments are not always interesting. The system is convenient for visiting the city, which is very extensive, and the staff is very friendly.

Operator response

Merci pour vos commentaires ; nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié nos bus et notre personnel !
