"Tiago took us to six different places, spaced out over three hours. The tastings were so varied and all very good except we didn’t care for the currywurst. We understood that is a typical German street food. We highly enjoyed the rest though. Tiago was a great guide and even helped us with the Bahn route back to our hotel. I highly recommend his tour."
"Elisabetta was outstanding and so much fun to be with. We had some last minute (same day) timing and location changes and she worked with me to be able to maximize our tour and meet our timelines. Saw amazing sites that we would have never found on our own. Highly recommend Elisabetta for a tour, especially if your interested in an artist’s flair. "
"Firstly, Boyd, unfortunately, was unable to make the tour but he contacted me a week before to explain the situation and that he had kindly rearranged the tour with Juan. Contacted Juan and he kindly arranged to pick us up at the agreed time, from our hotel. Juan was absolutely amazing, took his time explaining the amazing, complex and incredible history of Berlin from WW2 and how WW2 shaped the future of this city up until when the wall came down. The tour was 4 hours and we walked over 10km but take my word for it, it was truly amazing and the time flew by. What an amazing story and Juan told it perfectly. We came away from the tour amazed, enlightened and at times absolutely shocked at some of the wartime stories. If you ever go to Berlin, put this tour at the top of your list and if Juan is available, make sure you choose him. Martin & Nicola "
"We had an excellent tour of Berlin starting from our hotel in Alexanderplatz and ending at the Soviet war memorial Tiergarten. Boyd is extremely knowledgable with a warm personality and made the whole experience a pleasure. Thank you Boyd."
"Seth set the right tone and pace for our family of four (2 adolescents). We really enjoyed learning about Berlin through the lens of WW2 and he helped bring the city’s history to life with well chosen facts and anecdotes. We thoroughly recommend Seth!"
"Violeta is truly a child of the world, having lived in many places. It gives her a very nice perspective on things and strong opinions. And we loved her for this! Go for it! Opinions matter!
On top, she knows very well the history of Berlin which was pleasant
She was very flexible and showed us what we wanted in a fun/educative still very personal way. ( yes, we ended up discussing kids and our countries)
Don't hesitate to choose her and don't forget to ask about her fluffy cats!"
"Tiago was a very welcoming and delightful host. He shared his favorite spots in his neighborhood and accommodated quickly to our dietary restrictions. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and would highly recommend you spend an evening getting to know both Thiago and part of Berlin. "
"First visit to Berlin, and we booked this experience for day one. What a phenomenal walking tour with Pablo. He made us feel relaxed and we built an instant rapport. Great facts and trivia about Berlin and German history. We would recommend this experience and especially Pablo, who even managed to organise a stunning sunset (lol!) at the end of the tour. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
"Chris was an informative guide with relaxed vibe. Enjoyed his history of each site and interesting human stories. He shared his favorite museums and restaurant tips. "
