Excellent experience. Antonio was a wonderful guide - knowledgeable, friendly and caring. I saw new parts of Berlin and it was organised at an enjoyable pace. Thoroughly recommended.
Must do trip A walk through arts and history
We went to some cool neighborhoods we would not have found outside the tour. The street art was fabulous, cool parks/gardens and our lunch stop was in a foodie mecca. Our guide was long winded but provided us with lots of information. He also navigated us through public transit closures with ease.
A very interesting and really good walking tour that took us to places we would not otherwise have found. Our guide was well-informed and we enjoyed learning about how the culture of Berlin developed over time.
Antonia gave a very humble description of all facets of Berlin with focus on the complexities since WW2 and the ongoing struggles of artisans and the fringe communities . It shifted the ficus away from the war and onto the human side of the communities living in Berlin
Great tour of nice special places. Highly recommended. Thanks Rhys!
Highly recommend to those who want to learn more about the underground/punk history of the city!
Loved this tour. Rhys was a great tour guide. A wealth of knowledge and very entertaining. He was very easy to listen to. He took us to places we wouldn’t know about otherwise. We would highly recommend this tour and ask for Rhys.
Great guide, you could really tell he had a passion for street art & music. Took us to some cool places and explained all the history & culture
An interesting tourist guide around a bit of post war / post wall avante garde parts of Berlin. Things we would not have noticed. Although not a local Ben did give us many local insights. He was entertaining and kept the walking group of 20 together, through markets walking trains and trams. Good value and worth doing.
