Walk through the places where Berlin's 20th-century history was made – only your group, with a licensed guide (DIN EN 15565). Start at Checkpoint Charlie, where US and Soviet tanks faced each other in 1961, and walk along the former border strip with original parts of the Berlin Wall to the Topography of Terror, the former SS and Gestapo headquarters. Continue to Potsdamer Platz – once the death strip – the Führerbunker site and the Holocaust Memorial, and finish at the Brandenburg Gate and the Reichstag. Meet at Checkpoint Charlie or at the Akademie der Künste, Pariser Platz 4, next to the Brandenburg Gate – from there the route runs in reverse. The tour ends at the other point or back where you started, as you prefer. On 4- and 6-hour tours we add the Book Burning Memorial at Bebelplatz and Museum Island. Private tour for 1–2 or up to 6 people – the price is per group.

From the operator’s live schedule on Viator, checked Nov 14.
The famous Allied border crossing between the American and Soviet sectors. In October 1961 US and Soviet tanks stood face to face here – one of the most dangerous moments of the Cold War.
Former headquarters of the Gestapo and SS, now a free documentation centre. Right next to it stands one of the longest original sections of the Berlin Wall – two dictatorships in one place.
Before the war Europe's busiest square, after 1961 a deserted death strip between the two halves of the Wall. Today's skyscrapers stand where the border ran.
2,711 concrete blocks commemorate the six million murdered Jews of Europe. Nearby, a car park covers the site of the Führerbunker, where Hitler spent his last days in 1945.
In 1933 the Nazis marched through the gate with torches to celebrate Hitler's rise to power. From 1961 to 1989 it stood in the no-man's-land of the Wall, until it became the symbol of reunification.
The 1933 Reichstag fire gave Hitler the excuse to abolish basic rights. In 1945 Soviet soldiers raised their flag on the roof. Today it is home to Germany's democratic parliament.
