We did the children tour allong the wall with Uygur. We had our two children, aged 9 and 12, with us and had a wonderfull two hours. Uygur was nice, helpfull and really great at engaging the kids. One of the highlights was drawing with chalk on the wall. Highly recommend!!!Fantastic tour and guide

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!

This tour was a high point of our trip to Berlin. Our guide Uygur was very knowledgeable about the art we examined and gave us interesting background information about the the street art scene in Kreuzberg. He even gave us restaurant recommendations and some fascinating info about the Turkish community of Berlin. All in all it was a great tour and everyone in my party enjoyed it very much. We would recommend this very highly! Outstanding Kreuzberg Tour

Elisabetta was fun and engaging and knowledgeable, but also able to listen. The tour was not so much about the museums, but more about the more hidden history of Berlin. Thus, it turned out to be much better as a result. She showed us areas of Berlin off the beaten track, which turned out to be a highlight of the tour and to be highly recommended before the other tourists find it! Gracie Elisabetta.Excellent tour

Heerlijke wandel tocht gemaakt met Urgur (en zijn 12 jarige dochter). Begonnen bij Anne Frank museum om een indruk te krigen van de vele streetartists hun manier van communiceren. Duurzaam, effectief en heel inspirerend. Uygur's dochter wist de artisten op de muur tussen al die duizenden afbeeldingen feillos aan te wijzen ! Jmmy C, maar ook Mimi the Cat. Het museum is aan te bevelen, weggestopt in een steegje. Zegt dat wat? Vandaar op ons verzoek naar Kreuzberg, daar waar UYGUR als (voormalig?) bewoner veel van wist. Het " little Istanbul" , waar Engels en Turks de voortaal zijn. Veel geschiedenis en een wijk nog steeds in beweging. Wilt u een ander beeld krijgen van Berlijn, doe deze wijk aan. Een rondleiding met gevoel en empathie. Berlin, city of many faces

Oh Elisabetta, you were a highlight of our visit to Berlin! As an artist your eye for what to see in the street art was spot on— we now look at street art with a practiced eye. The stories about the artists, evolution of the medium—value of paste ups— made for a delightful experience. Lunch recommendation was amazing! I hope whoever is reading this books you!!!A new appreciation for Street Art

Elisabetta packed a lot of Berlin magic into a brief stroll! She really worked with our time constraint but gave us a fabulous tour nonetheless. In just a short time she led us to some real highlights, shared fascinating stories, and happily answered every question we threw her way. The sunny weather helped, but it was her enthusiasm and deep knowledge that truly made the walk memorable. Highly recommend her tour if you want an engaging, information-rich overview without losing half a day.Can't go wrong if you choose Elisabetta!

I was traveling with my elderly husband, who is 90 years old and he has some energy and mobility issues. Elisabetta absolutely rolled out the red carpet and made our fascinating, curated tour of Berlin easy and fun for him. He was sat in the front seat next to her, and she made sure he was involved and enjoying himself. I can't say enough how special Elisabetta is. And even more, she showed us a side of Berlin that we never would have seen, and shared her personal story and point of view with us, which added to our understanding of the art scene in Berlin. It was a morning so well spent. I can't recommend Elisabetta enough. Absolutely Perfect for Our Needs

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. Berlin with Elisabetta

This was the best way to get to know Berlin on our first trip to the city. Pablo showed us the big sights, but took us to less well known places that we would not have otherwise visited. He told us the history and stories behind the sights which was exactly what we wanted from the tour. He was super friendly and fun to be with for the afternoon and patient and accommodating when I wanted to stop to take photographs. I would have no hesitation in recommended Pablo as your tour guide.Under the skin of Berlin with Pablo
