Beyond Potsdam’s natural & architectural charms, we loved how Maria weaved the story of place into snippets of history from 17th century Prussia to current efforts to learn from & never repeat the evils of the 3rd Reich & the Soviet puppet GDR.

We got a super cool personalized tour, and our guide Glen was fantastic! We also got to learn how to navigate the German transit system. Glen learned what we were interested in, as our entire Europe trip had been WWII-focused, and really gave us details and insight around Potsdam, and the events and people that led up to both World Wars. Potsdam had a significant part to play, which I definitely did not know. There is also some beautiful and unique architecture around Potsdam, which I loved taking pictures of. Glen was very friendly and super knowledgeable, if you are looking for an excellent private tour to Potsdam definitely book this!

Mikhail was AMAZING! It was unexpectedly cold and we got rained on as well, but he still made it an extremely fun experience. I went with a group of my girlfriends all of us are college age, and there were some older couples there too, and everyone was able to enjoy themselves equally. He knows his way around and if anything ever seems closed, he will find his way in for you.

JR was extremely informative and enjoyable to tour with. His detailed knowledge and friendly demeanor made the whole trip delightful and entertaining.

Dear gregh516, Thank you very much for recommending our Potsdam tour to other Berlin visitors. It is a perfect day out when in Berlin. Kind regards, Gerard
Nikolai was a fantastic guide. We didn’t know what to expect nor the history of Potsdam and he taught us so much! We navigated through bus and train system with his assistance and found a cute cafe for a snack mid day. He was patient with our need to go slow and still managed to hit most (I think?) of his planned itinerary. It was more walking than we expected but nothing too much. Would love to go back to the palace / bummed we didn’t have time to see more!
