Lee was extremely knowledgeable and we had a great time being toured around Berlin with him. He was able to field all our questions and he was patient while we juggled our 4 year old along the way. Lee helped us set up with the local travel app and provided the best advice on how to use the public transport and to onward red recommendations for the remainder of the stay. Lovely time in Berlin

I recently did a 4-hour walking tour of Berlin with Miha, and it was nothing short of incredible. Miha brought the city to life with a perfect blend of history, culture, and local insight. From iconic landmarks to hidden gems, he made sure we experienced both the must-see sights and the soul of the city. What truly stood out was Miha’s passion and depth of knowledge—he shared stories that were both powerful and thought-provoking, while keeping the tour engaging and accessible. Whether it was discussing Berlin’s complex past or pointing out the best local spots, he made every moment count. If you’re in Berlin and want more than just a sightseeing trip—something meaningful, informative, and inspiring—this tour is a must. Highly recommended! An Unforgettable Berlin Walking Tour!

Michele toured us on the hottest June day in Berlin… without wilting! She brought history to life, put the aftermath of WWII into a humanistic perspective, and mixed history with contemporary Berlin. Prior to our tour Michele was in contact several times to shape our tour. She even changed our tour route so we ended at an amazing flea market so we could have time to wander on our own. Because we’d been in frequent contact before our tour, I felt like I was meeting a friend — which we were by the end of our visit! Enthusiastic Expert

Our tour of Berlin with Michelle was nothing short of outstanding. We’ve been fortunate to have taken many guided tours over the years, but Michelle stands out as the best guide we’ve ever had. Her deep knowledge of Berlin’s rich history, culture, and landmarks added so much depth and meaning to our experience. Michelle was not only incredibly well-informed but also warm, courteous, and genuinely kind. She answered every question with patience and insight, and her enthusiasm for the city was infectious. Her thoughtful approach and personalized attention made us feel welcome and cared for throughout the entire tour. We truly can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed our time with Michelle. She made our visit to Berlin unforgettable, and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top-notch guide. Thank you, Michelle, for making our trip so special!

We had the opportunity to tour Berlin notable sites with Seth and it was one of our trips highlights. Seth was not just knowledgeable but he was friendly, fun, and he paced the tour to our capabilities. We walked a lot but his pace was comfortable for us and very engaging. A tour with Seth is clearly a must for anyone who not only wants to see the historical sites but also wants to learn the history behind them. His history background was appreciated by everyone in our group. We learned so much during our time together about the historical events that we finished being wiser and even more curious. Can't ask for anything more than that.Great Tour Experience

Abbiamo passeggiato per vie e quartieri di Berlino vistando angoli della città che se fossimo stati da soli non avremmo mai visto. Elisabetta è un'autentica appassionata ed oltre a spiegarci in modo impeccabile tanti dettagli della street art e dei suoi artisti, ci ha dato una visione unica e dall'interno delle metamorfosi che sta vivendo la città. Grazie anche per l'ottimo ristorante che ci hai consigliato!Bellissima esperienza

We had the private 4 hour tour of Berlin with Alex who was informative and adapted the tour as we went along taking us to sights we would have never had thought of if seeing if doing it ad hoc. Really interesting tour and Alex was flexible as we changed the start time by an hour which was enabled by his excellent communication beforehand. Highly recommended. Informative WW2 and Berlins history tour

Uygur was a great guide - very friendly and with lots of ‘insider’ advice about the aspects of Berlin we were most interested in. We did this on our first day in Berlin and it helped to orientate us and help us decide what else we wanted to prioritise. We also really appreciated the sensitive overview of Berlin’s very troubled history. A great intro to Berlin

Juan was fantastic from start to finish! From our very first contact, he was attentive and accommodating. The day before the tour, he asked if we had any special preferences and even arranged to start directly from our hotel – a thoughtful touch that was both convenient and far from obvious. During the tour, he adapted his original plan on the spot to follow our interests and satisfy our curiosities. His knowledge of the city and its history is impressive, and he brought everything to life with unique, unexpected anecdotes that made the experience truly memorable.Friendly, Knowledgeable, Tailor-Made Tour

We did a WW2 tour with Miha, with a group including our kids (9, 13), and in-laws (70's), and everyone had a great time. We got an amazing introduction and overview to all of Berlin, but the best was the personal stories and getting to know Miha. He was obviously a very passionate guide, well-informed, and very personable. The pace was perfect for us, and the time flew by. We would absolutely recommend this, or any tour with Miha.Wonderful guide and experience.

I had a great time with Seth. He is very knowledgeable and flexible. He tailored my tour based on my interests and didn’t dwell on sights that I had already extensively toured such as the Reichstag. In addition to a comprehensive tour, Seth had very interesting insights and perspectives on several of the major events that occurred in Berlin while the Third Reich’s was in control. I would recommend Seth to anyone interested in a tour of the Third Reich and Hitler’s Legacy.Excellent experience.

Juan is a superb guide who has a wealth of knowledge of Berlin. We were visiting Berlin in a quest to find my father’s home in Charlottenburg. Juan located the house and spent time acquainting us with the area. He was prompt picking us up. Neither my husband nor I are youngsters and he paced the tours beautifully. We learned so much from Juan and would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to get a good appreciation of Berlin and its history.Making Memories with Juan

Seth heeft ons gezin met drie tieners rondgeleid en in een ochtend hebben we zoveel van de stad gezien ! Communicatie was heel goed, Seth haalde ons op bij ons appartement en was flexibel met het programma. Zijn rustige, prettige persoonlijkheid paste goed bij ons gezin en alle vijf hingen we aan zijn lippen. Als we weer een keer in Berlijn zijn kiezen we zeker weer voor een tour met Seth, want we hebben nog lang niet alles gezien.. ik raad iedereen een tour met Seth aan! Aanrader!

Seth met us at our hotel in Berlin and took us all the way to the camp and back. We were a family of 6 with 2 grandchildren, 2 parents and 2 grandparents. Seth set a pace that worked for all of us and helped us all understand what we were seeing. He was knowledgeable about the whole camp system and that helped us gain a broader perspective. He adjusted timing when it rained and made sure we had time for a quick lunch before boarding the train back to Berlin. He saw us all the way to the hotel before departing. He met all our expectations and we all were glad we went. Lastly, as a Texan living in Germany, he spoke perfect English. Sachsenhausen with Seth

We asked for a more local and less touristy experience, with a limited available time. Christelle was the only responder that read beyond the words of the request, and actually understood what we were asking for. Her knowledge and insight of local areas and current history made our visit pleasurable and very insightful, and her ability to adapt to changes in our needs made it fulfilling. Her above and beyond approach made a short time experience a long time memory. Personal Tour

We spent two hours with Miha as he took us on a walking tour of Berlin and into The Reichstag. Unlike other tour guides we’ve had in the past, Miha stayed with us, listening along to the audio tour and adding additional information and context to what was on the recording. He was also generous with answers about his family’s experiences with events in Europe over the last 80 years that really brought the history out of names and dates into the impact it had on people and their descendants. A friendly, knowledgeable guy, I’d highly recommend Miha. Making history personal

Extremely knowledgeable and interesting throughout, not just with food, but also with respect to culture, history and politics. Learnt a lot, and a great introduction to the Kreuzberg district. Thoroughly enjoyed our time with Sara. Positive feedback from 2 teenagers as well!Excellent guide and food

A big thank you to Michele who stepped in last minute when another guide became unavailable. We had a lovely tour with Michele exploring the East side. Michele took us to places we would never have found on our own. The street art was amazing and Michele definitely ‘knew her stuff’, giving us lots of interesting information and personal stories. We would definitely recommend Michele for a walking tour of Berlin. Thank you Michele for making our day.Lovely tour with Michele

Por favor no duden en reservar u tour con Pablo!! Realmente cambi toda su visita a Berlín! Pasamos por los mismos lugares que habíamos visitado solos pero tomaron una profundidad, una riqueza que nunca hubiésemos logrado sin él. Pablo es sumamente culto, informado y, a la vez, ameno, cálido, cercano. Fue mejor de lo que podríamos haber pedido. Respondió todas nuestras preguntas, adaptó el recorrido a nuestros intereses, fue super generoso con su tiempo. No suelo dejar reviews pero realmente quiero transmitir lo importante de hacer esto, cambia todo!!!!! Como una viñeta representativa: ayer pasamos por un lugar que, pensamos, era una biblioteca refaccionaría. Hoy, con Pablo, no esteramos que en realidad era una sala homenaje a la quema de libros nazi y toda la historia por detrás. Es eso: conocer la ciudad o solo caminar sus calles. Arreglen con Pablo y conozcan de verdad Berlín. Gamechanger in your visit!
