Great local color from incredible historian guide

Our guide—who is also a historian—was incredible. He was extremely knowledgeable and even more importantly, he adjusted the tempo and content of the tour to keep all of us interested, from ages 9-79. He went above and beyond by giving us local tips and recommendations and spent extra time with us at the end. We really appreciated this thorough introduction to Berlin!

Best guided tour in Berlin

We were picked up by the guide in our hotel Adlon. The guide was very professional and managed to integrate all members of our family to ensure we all enjoyed the tour. Strongly recommend to anyone that would like to explore Berlin with a local knowledgeable guide.

Wonderful educative tour through Berlin City center

It was a wonderful experience! Our guide had profound knowledge about literally everything what I possibly could ask at this city tour. He had knowledge about even the smallest details and it was a very enriching and educating experience. He had also a very good concept in terms of time as well as walking distances and was able to still adjust to our quite diverse group in terms of language, interest and pace. He is was a studied historian and his passion has cought us as well. Also he was a very attentive tour guide and was good fun to listen to his explanations. I highly recommend this tour and would love to give even 6 stars!!

Georg was an expert in his metier !

We booked a private guided walk about the historical side of Berlin, and we loved it. The guide picked us up at Hotel Adlon and we then took the tube to the starting location. Georg was able to answer all our question and knew everything about the history and the sights.
