  • Reichstag Building

    Berlin's famous Reichstag is the meeting place of the Bundestag (“Federal Assembly”), the lower house of Germany's national legislature. The glass transparent dome added by Norman Foster in the 1990s has become an inconic image of modern Germany's committment to democratic government.

    15 minutes

  • Brandenburg Gate

    The Brandenburg Gate is an 18th-century neoclassical monumen built on the orders of Prussian king Frederick William II. Many famous events in Berlin's history, from Napoleon's triumphant entrance to Ronald Reagain's cold war speech have taken place at this iconic gate.

    20 minutes

  • Museum Island

    15 minutes

  • Unter Den Linden

    Unter den Linden is the grand boulevard, running from the City Palace to Brandenburg Gate, named after the linden trees that line it. It was Berlin's answer to Paris's Champs-Élysées.

Great for history buffs

Published on Jul, 2023

Very informative and interesting. We enjoyed the illuminating and enlightening tour - packing a lot in the relatively short time we had.

smart, fun and personalized Berlin tour

Published on Jun, 2023

We loved our private tour in Berlin with Lee. He was so smart, interesting and funny. He also asked us questions about what we wanted to see and made a few pivots on the tour to cover all of the things that he thought we would enjoy. Enthusiastic and informative - I'll be sure to pass along his info to all friends visiting Berlin.

Excellent tour

Published on May, 2022

Our guide, Lee, had an incredible amount of knowledge and good humor. I was worried that the level might not be up to my history buff cousin but she couldn't have been more pleased. We would wholeheartedly recommend this tour. Just fantastic in every way.

Brilliant, entertaining tour

Published on Mar, 2022

Our guide, Dan, was brilliant, welcoming, informed and funny. It was joy to start our time in Berlin with such a deep dive into the major sites of the city. The time flew by. One of the best tours we've ever done.

Excellent tour with Peter!

Published on Mar, 2022

Thanks so much to Peter for the fantastic afternoon. This was the orientation we needed for our first trip to Berlin. We remembered so much from the discussion during the rest of our stay. We also tried enjoyed several of your dining and museum recs! Take this tour if you are new to Berlin and then take the East Berlin tour for another memorable experience.
