Great Tour with amazing guide!
If you're visiting Berlin, don't skip this tour. There are plenty of walking tours in the city, but this one gives you the background you need to really understand what you're seeing. Places that might seem like ordinary streets or buildings suddenly have fascinating stories behind them.
Nir was a fantastic guide. He has a great way of bringing the history of Communist Berlin to life without making it feel like a history lesson. The tour was engaging from start to finish, with a great mix of historical facts, personal stories, and opportunities to ask questions. You could tell he genuinely enjoys sharing Berlin's history, and that made the experience even better.
What I appreciated most was the context. Instead of simply pointing out landmarks, Nir explained what everyday life was like in East Berlin, how the Berlin Wall shaped the city and its people, and how the legacy of the GDR can still be seen today. It's the kind of insight you just don't get from walking around on your own.
I'd recommend this tour to anyone visiting Berlin. It's informative, thought-provoking, and gives you a much deeper understanding of the city. If you get Nir as your guide, you're in for a great experience.

Terrible Experience - book with anyone else!!
We showed up 5 minutes early and couldn’t find the group at the designated meeting point. We tried contacted the company and they responded with the guide’s phone number. I called a few times but the guide’s never answered. They were completely incompetent, unable to coordinate or help us. We then asked for a refund and they refused. They were very rude and unhelpful. I would encourage getting tours from any other organization!

Dear Koby,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
We understand that missing a tour is frustrating. However, several statements in your review are simply incorrect and deserve clarification for future readers.
The tour departed on time and was attended by 10 other guests who had booked through the same platform. They had no difficulty finding the meeting point and completed the tour successfully. This confirms that the tour operated exactly as advertised.
Our guides cannot answer phone calls while actively guiding a tour. Their responsibility is to the guests who arrived on time and are participating in the experience. This is standard practice and ensures the quality of the tour for everyone attending.
As the tour took place as scheduled, your booking was correctly recorded as a no-show under the booking terms. The booking platform verified that the tour operated, which is why your refund request was declined. Had we failed to provide the service, we would have refunded you without hesitation.
Despite this, we still offered to reschedule your tour as a gesture of goodwill, but that offer was declined.
We also feel it is important to note that our customer support team remained polite and professional throughout the conversation, despite receiving disrespectful communication. We will always do our best to help our guests, but we cannot accept responsibility when a guest misses a tour that was delivered successfully.
We encourage future travelers to read the many reviews from guests who joined this tour and enjoyed the experience. While we regret that you missed it, the facts remain that the tour operated as scheduled, other guests attended without issue, and the service purchased was provided.

Sandeman - The Communist Berlin & Berlin Wall Tour
Just back from Berlin where we took The Sandeman walking tour that is called Communist Berlin and Berlin Wall Tour. Our guide was Simon and he was superb. His knowledge meant that we gleaned great historical information but his delivery made it easy to take this in. Wee stories helped us appreciate the insights and his willingness to take and answer questions the whole way round was greatly appreciated by all. I highly recommend this guide and this tour. Thanks Simon

Great walking tour with Marcel
We had an excellent tour with Marcel. He was so knowledgable and interesting. We went away feeling that we understood so much more about Berlin. Also it was good fun and we saw so much.

Our tour guide Cristobal was beyond words. So knowledgeable and passionate about history, that he made the entire experience enticing. Not only did he educate us on so many things, he extended his service about other recommendations when visiting Berlin, whether it be for educational purposes or just leisure. It’s people like him that are so perfect for the job!

Take this walking tour if you do nothing else in Berlin
Great walking tour. Two and a half hours would never be enough but the tour guide’s earnest efforts to give the proper context with respect to the history of Germany in general snd Berlin specifically greatly helped in understanding and appreciating the sites we visited.
Our tour guide was Cristobal. He kept everything interesting and worthwhile.
Highly recommended if you only have a limited time in Berlin.

Very engaging tour of communist Berlin and Berlin Wall
We toured with Marcel and he was great, very personable and chatty without being too much so. Included personal stories of his early childhood in Berlin up to the time of the collapse of the Berlin Wall.
Interesting facts and stories along the way.
This tour focuses, as the name suggests, on the time when Berlin was divided into east and west. Great geographical orientation for some things we wanted to visit in our own time, tranenpalast and the ghost train stations (explained REALLY well).
Tour finished at Berlin Wall memorial which we went to after the tour finished.
Thanks Marcel.

Sandemans Free Tour of Berlin
Marcel was an excellent guide on the 2 hour Berlin tour. He delivered lots of historical information to a large group on a cold wet morning but kept everyone fully engaged. It was a good way to get our bearings and locate areas we could revisit later.
