Interesting and Insightful - We had Rona as our guide and she was wonderful. She blended history, explanations, interesting gossip along with bits of humor and made the tour exciting and informative. It was a long tour and she moved us along smartly but it was never dull. One of the other people in our tour told me that she had never walked so far and so fast but she was with the tour to the end. That shows how good Rona was. She was both interesting and insightful. Excellent tour.

Awesome job Luisa - Our guided walking our excellent. Meeting up at the designated point was easy and our guide Luisa was lovely. She was so knowledgeable as she has lived in Germany much of her life but more importantly she really brought history to life making events easy to understand, interesting and fun. The four hours went by really quickly with a nice 20 min break halfway through, at one point a private tour guide interrupted her and was quite rude but I really admired her professionalism in how she handled the situation and didn’t let it affect her. I’d highly recommend this tour and if you get the chance ask for Luisa!!

Giles the brilliant, patient guide - The tour I chose started at noon on a Sunday and finished at 3.30 pm. Giles was our English tour guide who has lived in Berlin for over 30 years. He had so much knowledge and was happy to tell us all the stories he knew. He started with a chat with pictures of Berlin when it first started and how it developed into the city we see today. then we went to all the main sites from the Reichstag to Brandenberg Gates. It was a comfortable pace but Giles was so easy to listen to, very friendly, informative and happy to answer any questions we had. It was less than £20 but one of the best tours I have taken, I have tried the bus tours but sometimes it is just a recording or you cannot understand or hear the speaker. Definitely worth the time as it covered all the sites I wanted to see leaving time for shopping. you also stop in the middle for a 15-minute toilet/coffee break. Thanks, Giles for making it so great.

Wonderful tour that exceeded expectations - Our tour was absolutely fantastic, and led by the very knowledgeable, and sometimes funny, Walid. Walid provide great history and background to each location we visited, and it was fantastic to hear his stories. The tour itself took us through a very interesting route, taking in the history and sights of Berlin. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Berlin, and it is definitely great value for money.

Tobi is one of the many attractions. - This walk combined history - lots of history - with a really entertaining and knowledgeable guide. Tobi is, quite simply, a star. He made a series of attractive buildings into a narrative that came alive with emotion and humour. I will recommend this tour - but Tobi in particular - to everyone who comes to Berlin.
