The perfect tour for first-time visitors and Berlin connoisseurs alike! Historical facts and quirky Berlin anecdotes are woven into an entertaining, fun, and friendly half-day walking tour.
Berlin has a history like no other city: from a proud empire under the Kaisers, destroyed by World War One, to the capital of progressive culture in the 1920s; then turned upside-down with Hitler's rise to power in 1933, devastated during WWII and in the end divided by the Allies, becoming the global symbol of Cold War. Finally, in 1989, the German capital became a symbol of hope when the Wall came down, allowing Germany to become one country again.
Using the latest historical research, your experienced guide will show you the wild, tragic story of this great city. You'll stroll through the Brandenburg Gate, stand above the remains of Hitler's bunker and cross the Cold War frontier at Checkpoint Charlie. You will also see the former Nazi Air Ministry, the Holocaust Memorial, Museum Island (UNESCO world heritage), the TV tower, the beautiful Berlin Cathedral and many other sights.
