Hello Jens, Thank you very much for the spontaneous tour yesterday with your vintage taxi through Berlin. You gave us many insights and also impressed us with your knowledge. We felt well taken care of by you. Plus a very fair price! Thanks
Today my husband and I took a day tour of Potsdam and parts of Berlin. We spent 7 wonderful hours traveling around in a vintage Mercedes Benz & Jens showing us and sharing so much history of these amazing cities. This was so wonderful for us to be able to interact with such a professional tour guide. The private tour allows us to ask questions and travel at our own pace. We can’t recommend Jens services more highly. Do yourself a favor and hop off those buses and hop on to a truly amazing ride!
