Visit to the top 👌 - Visit the must-sees of Berlin with Marie. A super pleasant visit, very interesting and a guide at the top.
The other visits are apparently very good but for lack of time we did not see it is only part discount:)

Excellent visit with Marie - Excellent visit with Marie, she knew her subject very well and answered all questions. Very good experience with the company, I had booked the tour for a Thursday but due to delays I didn't have to attend, I contacted the organizers on Trip Advisor and in 20 minutes I was able to change the date without any problems or additional costs.

Must do! - We made the tour with Paul, French guide. I highly recommend the tour to people coming to visit Berlin. You can learn a lot from the Prussian era to the Cold War. The content is complete and the explanations clear. On top of that, Paul is really friendly. Thank you for this visit!

An authentic historical walk! - A very nice discovery of the places through the very wise gaze of Elisa, our guide, who allowed us to properly relate historical events with what are today the spaces, without falling into the trap of the places "fakes". The vintage photo supports she used allow for a better understanding of the transformations and questions that this brings to this modern city. We would have stayed with her for hours!
Thank you Elisa!!!
