Great way to get to know Berlin!
Published on Nov, 2024
I used an audio guide to explore the city, and it was such a great way to get to know Berlin! The guide covered everything from the Berlin Wall to Checkpoint Charlie, and the stories were fascinating. I liked how I could walk at my own pace and stop wherever I wanted to take photos or grab a coffee. The guide also pointed out some lesser-known spots, which I wouldn’t have discovered on my own. It was easy to follow, but some parts felt a bit long.
Berlin.

I really appreciated how easy it was to follow, and it let me explore without feeling rushed. Plus, it had some great tips on where to find hidden street art and cool little cafes!
