Friendly guide, well-founded background, current information on the Humboldt Forum and the James Simon Gallery, interesting details on difficult building site of the museum island
In the best of all possible evaluations very questionable performance of tour guide. His prime objection seemed to be to promote his — hopefully more than questionable — job as a guide at the Humboldt forum. Apart from that his prime objective was to spend as much as possible time in the shade, in addition his prime mission besides his western origin he wanted to make sure to perceive himself as an assimilated East German a really lousy performance , what a waste of money and time
