We very much enjoyed our afternoon with Alex, showing us around Berlin. He is a hive of knowledge and full of love and enthusiasm for the city. Alex was able to bring so much lived experience when describing life behind the iron curtain, which really brought the Cold War era to life for us as we visited the well known sites of the time. We can heartily recommend this tour. You will not be disappointed. Best way to see Berlin

Alex is an absolutely fantastic person and an outstanding guide! Not only is Alex incredibly knowledgeable about Berlin's history and culture, but he’s also a warm, engaging, and patient person. His English is excellent. Exploring the city with Alex is an absolute pleasure—his passion for Berlin is contagious, and his friendly, easygoing nature makes walking around berlin feel like a fun day out with a good friend. If you’re looking for someone who’s not only highly skilled but also a genuinely great person, Alex is the one. Highly, highly recommended!like a fun day out with a good friend

I’d told myself I’d return to Berlin once all the pandemic stuff settled down, and I finally made it back in October 2022. Alex really knows his way around the city. He was flexible and accommodating when my cousin and I had some last-minute changes, which we really appreciated. Even though this was my third time in Berlin, there was still plenty I hadn’t seen. We got a great view of the city from a hilltop and popped into a second-hand bookstore that had tons of charm. Alex’s humor and energy really brought the experience to life. We walked away with a deeper appreciation for the city. Highly recommend his tours—even if you’ve been to Berlin before. Leslie and Hector a great view of the city

12 students in their mid-twenties and their trancher had the pleasure of a hip and historic guided tour around Berlin and especially X-berg and Friedrichshain. A great experience! A great tour around Berlin

We had 6 days in Berlin and on our 5th day we felt like getting some insider info. That’s where Alex proved such a genial host. He met us at the hotel lobby and walked us through his neighbourhood, sharing both stories from when the wall was still up and his personal, contemporary insights. We took a couple brief breaks to rest along the way and got to see different areas of Kreuzberg, some grungy, others stately. We appreciated learning more about the rich history of this many-sided part of Berlin. I can confidently say that by the end of our walk we learned a ton. Thanks Alex. Also, your English is excellent. - Sammy and Fred learned a ton

It was my first time in Germany in November 2024, so I took the kickstarter tour with Alex who was very knowledgable and generous with his time. Alex was happy to tailor the tour to my requests and introduced me to many sights I would otherwise have missed. It happened to be really rainy and windy that day. Alex was able to work around that and kept things running smoothly throughout the whole tour. It was a very short visit for me and I definitely got a lot more from the trip because of Alex. I highly recommend him. 5/5 Hvery knowledgable

Alex kennt seine Stadt in und auswendig und zeigt einen die besten Orte in Berlin. Obwohl ich selbst regelmäßig in Berlin bin, hat mir Alex den ein oder anderen interessanten Ort zeigen können der mir selbst unbekannt war. Eine Tour mit Alex ist ein absoluter Muss für jeden der ein kulturelles Berlin abseits der Touristenströme entdecken will.Bester Tourguide in Berlin!!!

Alex tried his best in showing and sharing stories of Berlin. He was not our chosen guide - our original guide Minha was unable to make it (despite confirming he could) and we were transferred to Seth who then bounced us to Alex. Honestly, was disappointing and was thrown off. On hindsight, I should have cancelled when Minha couldn’t make it. It was our first visit to Berlin and our first tour upon landing on Berlin. Was hoping the tour gave us insights and insider tip to Berlin but experience was in line with expectation despite it being a private tour. Berlin - discovery

I was met by Alex at the hotel who was waiting for me. He introduced himself gave a brief outline of how he knew Berlin so well and the exciting thing we were going to explore. Alex is an encyclopaedia of information on Berlin from its architecture to the politics around the fall of the wall. Alex was extremely well informed to the events of the war and the main areas of interest. He was sensitive to past and excited for the future of Berlin. Alex has a magical storytelling ability so as your are consumed with the tour. I can not recommend Alex enough, if you are looking for an amazing tour please book Alex you will not be disappointed.
