Our tour with Rhys was absolutely incredible! We learned so much of the history and how it ties into present day Berlin. We learned so much more than we would have on any other tour! He even took our picture at a few stops which was so wonderful! Cannot say enough amazing things about this tour and Rhys! We walked all over! Rhys even recommended some great restaurants and other things to do in Berlin which were all wonderful.
I took this tour with Frey who was an EXCELLENT tour guide. Frey was very knowledgeable and I enjoyed taking to him about all of the sights that were on the walking tour in addition to the history of WW II and the Cold War. I was fortunate to be the only person on this tour which made it all the more personal and enjoyable. I would highly recommend this tour and doing it 1st thing upon my arrival to Berlin, it served as a GREAT overview tour !
Aaron was a great tour guide, with wide range of knowledge about WW2 era and showed me around WW2 Berlin and give me the Berlin experience and would definitely recommend.
What an awesome tour! My guide Rhys was delightful … funny, entertaining and most importantly, well versed in the deep history of Berlin. Take this tour. You’ll be glad you did!
Great historical tour of the city. Eugene had excellent knowledge and could answer any questions we asked. Very helpful too
Lots of fun, loads of interesting info. Cairan was amazing! We covered a lot of ground and saw the major points of interest in Berlin. Definitely worth it!
The Birchy Tour Company offered a personal touch, great tours offered and fantastic tour guide. Worth the money, time and experience. I definitely recommend this tour.
This experience was fabulous . The Birchy Company was excellent in communication, tours offered, directions to the meeting place and follow up. Their personal touch was great and you definitely get your monies worth. Carin was an exceptional guide and was extremely knowledgeable. He offered more than a typical tour of the highlights with his own experiences and family history. If you are on the fence about which tour to take, this one would be the one. I realize there are other guides, but if you want an overview of Berlin this tour was excellent. I highly recommend and if it’s possible I’d ask for Cairan. Thank you for the experience.
Lots of walking but great tour to see and learn about the main sights and also learn a lot about the ideology pre and post war. Ciaran was very knowledgable
This was our first time taking part in a history tour and Eugene was fantastic. The tour was very informative. Throughout the tour we saw and learned about several places of interest and significant historical buildings, memorials and places. Eugene was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and answered so many of our questions we had about Berlin and its history. Amazing tour and would highly recommend.
