Best guided tours in the city

For starters, let me introduce a bike trip through the city where you’ll be shown all the major attractions in half a day, from monuments to famous squares that changed the history. My second recommendation is a bike tour that will, along with major landmarks, also take you to the old brewery and the Museum Island. If you’re not a fan of bicycles, you can opt for a similar tour on foot and explore historical Berlin. You can go on a tour of all the famous points of interest no traveller should miss during their visit. The guide will share many interesting stories with you. If you’re more interested in modern history, you should take the two-hour guided tour that will take you through the Brandenburg Gate all the way to the Berlin Wall in a small group, where you’ll learn about the city’s history from the Third Reich to the Cold War. You can even learn more about Berlin under Hitler’s tule by taking the half-day guided trip dedicated exclusively to tours of former Nazi buildings in the city where Hitler’s bunker once used to be. You can learn about how he came to power by visiting the major points of his rule in the city. You can visit the Multimedia exhibition with the presentation on this darker part of German history at Anhalter Bahnhof. If you’re more interested in how Berlin looked like when it was divided, then this guided tour of the division of Berlin will be perfect for you. The guided tour will provide you with stories of residents from those times and their life as well as introduce you to many hidden corners in the city. And if you’re more of a politics type of person, we’ve got you covered with the guided tour of the entire German parliament where you’ll learn about all the important buildings, even the Reichstag. You’ll be able to enjoy the wonderful view of the city from the parliament’s terrace, and our offer even includes free cake and coffee, as well as a table reserved under your name. The winter view of wintertime Berlin from the Spree is wonderful. Enjoy in a two-hour boat ride that where you can see the major landmarks from a cosy seat. A special guided tour is also the comedy tour. The guide will provide a unique combination of comedy and historical anecdotes about the famous Unter den Linden boulevard, among others.

Where to eat in Berlin?

Berlin offers a myriad of tours where you can discover the local food and drinks. These tours will take you to famous bars and boutiques, offering you excellent coffee and artistic ice cream in the Mitte borough.

What else is there to see?

The most beautiful view of the city awaits you in the television tower that clearly dominates the Berlin panorama. You can buy your ticket online and save money and time. Of course, an attraction, such as the Berlin Wall, also has its own museum. You can visit it at the former Checkpoint Charlie. You’ll learn about the most successful escapes over the Wall and into West Berlin.

And when the time comes to say goodbye to Berlin, play a game of Questo. Playing as a refugee from East Berlin, you can solve puzzles around the whole city and unlock new locations and unforgettable stories.
