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

We had a great afternoon with Uygur, exploring parts of Berlin that were completely off the usual tourist sights. Uygur was professional and informative, but (almost more importantly) treated us as friends….eating in great places and enjoying the laidback vibe of Kreuzberg. I can’t recommend Uygur enough!Fabulous afternoon

Il tour e' molto interessante perche permette di conoscere la storia recente della citta attraverso i murales. Elisabetta ci ha mostrato non solo la East Side Gallery, ma anche tante altre opere nascoste o perlomeno non facilmente individuabili, anche perche non presenti sulle guide ufficiali. L'arte dei murales e' in continuo cambiamento, alcune opere che vedi oggi, magari non sono piu presenti un mese dopo, o nel frattempo nascono dei nuovi murales nella notte. Per questo motivo consiglio questo tour con Elisabetta, che ha uno sguardo da insider e vi permette di scoprire quello che le guide non dicono. Inoltre e' consigliabile fare il tour all'inizio della vacanza, perche nei giorni successivi, camminando per i quartieri di Berlino, si possono ritrovare altre opere degli stessi artisti riconoscibili nello stile perche spesso vi e' un Leitmotiv che ritorna (oltre al Tag spesso presente). Noi ci siamo divertiti, durante il nostro soggiorno, a trovare altre opere che abbiamo identificato in diversi quartieri di Berlino.Scoprire una Berlino in mutamento

We met Uygur in a part of Berlin where he clearly felt at home. He knew his way around and based on our personal interests gave us some excellent food tips! We really enjoyed exploring with Uygur while learning about street art in Berlin and also getting to know each other better. Every art piece was met with enthusiasm by Uygur and with explanation where possible. We even discovered some new pieces together and Uygur's enthusiasm for this only highlighted why he is a great choice for a tour like this. Our tour lasted over 3 hours and I think that if there would have been time we could have gone around for 3 more! Great tips afterwards about places to go and things to see and do. Highly recommend Uygur as your guide!A wonderful guide

I had a grafitti and streetart tour with Elisabetta and we covered Prenzlauer Berg and Mitte areas of Berlin with some amazing grafitti and streetart. Elisabetta knows so much about the artists that create this wonderful art and the meaning behind it and it was so interesting to hear the explanations and interpretations of the art pieces which made all the art come alive even more. I have passed many of these places so many times but never had explanations for what all these art pieces meant and represented. Thank you Elisabetta for a wonderful tour. An excellent tour

Piacevolissima mattinata in compagnia di Elisabetta che ci ha portato in giro per la città a scoprire magnifiche opere di street art berlinesi. Questo giro ci ha permesso di vedere posti e quartieri fuori dalle solite rotte turistiche che non avremmo visto altrimenti. Da migliorare solo il punto di incontro che non è dei più chiari, ma con Elisabetta siamo riusciti a trovarci per la partenza secondo programma. Visita raccomanda! Berlino tra street art e storia

We enjoyed very much a personalised tour by Uygur of some of Berlin's street art. My wife is disabled and Uygur structured our tour to take account of her difficulty walking. It was fascinating and Uygur was informative and helpful, and we learned a lot about day-to-day life in Berlin. Highly recommended.Uygur and Street Art

Voor het eerst in Berlijn. Net uit de trein naar het hotel gesneld om daarna door te gaan naar onze afpraak met Uygur die ons van alles zou gaan laten zien en vertellen over de streetart van Berlijn. We waren iets later door oponthoud met openbaar vervoer en ik had daarom al even telefonisch contact gezocht met Uygur om te melden dat we wat later waren. Geen probleem zei de vriendelijk klinkende stem van Uygur aan de andere kant vd lijn. Ik wacht op jullie op de afgesproken plek. En daar stond hij inderdaad toen we 10 min later aankwamen. Uygur nam ons mee de wijk door en vertelde over de kunst op de muren. Wie de kunst maakte en waaraan we ze konden herkennen als we elders in de stad iets zouden zien. Heel leuk! Ik kijk nu met hele andere ogen naar wat in eerste instantie voor mij gewoon een muur met graffiti en stickers was. Als je goed gaat kijken zie je steeds meer details en gaat zo'n muur leven. Uygur heeft ons ook vooral de niet gangbare dingen laten zien. We zouden dit anders nooit gezien hebben. We hebben er erg van genoten en waren blij dat Uygur ons met zoveel enthousiasme en vriendelijkheid heeft rondgeleid! Echt een aanrader!Our streetart guide Uygur

She showed us lots a interesting smaller works that we would have missed had we not been on the tour. She was fab with the kids and lovely to talk too. Also helped us out with ideas of where we could take the students later that day. If we come to Berlin again I would not hesitate to book. Thanks so much. It's great when you hear your students saying " this is so cool" xxWhat a fantastic tour!
