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

The most wonderful afternoon tour! Miha’s skills, knowledge and abilities were absolutely the best. His insights certainly has made our experiencing Berlin an everlasting memory. He provided not only the city’s history but shared stories that gave us a deeper understanding and perspective. And he was kind enough to answer all of our questions.

Michele was an amazing guide for us. We walked most of the tour to see the highlights of the city. Great background knowledge about the history but also relevant details about the Berlin of today. Great that she ended the trip by sharing an overview of the highlights to do oer neighborhood! We enjoyed our time together very much. Tip: schedule a tour by bike with Michele to cover more ground. Amazing & Passionate guide!

My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of taking a private tour of Berlin with Michèle last weekend, and it was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we met our guide, we knew we were in great hands. Her deep knowledge of Berlin’s history, culture, and hidden gems brought the city to life in a way we never could have imagined on our own. Michèle was so warm, professional, and incredibly engaging— we completely forgot about the less than ideal weather. She answered every question with enthusiasm and tailoring the experience to our interests with thoughtful recommendations along the way. We explored iconic landmarks, lesser-known neighborhoods, and even an amazing tucked-away doughnut shop we'd never have discovered otherwise. Our tour was, without a doubt, one of the highlights of our trip. Highly, highly recommended!A Truly Unforgettable Berlin Experience!

If you’re looking for the perfect way to experience Berlin’s beauty and history, look no further than a private bike tour with Miha. I had the pleasure of doing just that, and it was easily one of the highlights of my trip to Germany. From the moment I met Miha, I knew I was in great hands. Energetic, knowledgeable, and full of charm, he guided me effortlessly through the heart of Berlin — from iconic landmarks to hidden gems I would never have found on our own. It was the ideal balance of storytelling and sightseeing: Miha brought the past to life with gripping anecdotes and a great knowledge of history, all while making sure I was enjoying the ride (literally!). Loved it!!!!!!Miha Made Berlin Shine!

Miha was great. He met us at our hotel and walked us to all the sites we were hoping to see. He provided tons of personal insight, including restaurant recommendations – we tried two; both were fantastic.

We were 6 ladies on a birthday weekend in Berlin and had the best time with Miha being our tour guide. He told us so many stories and historical facts about Berlin , related to the places , buildings we were passing, it was very interesting and fun at the same time. We also took many little side streets where Miha showed us such nice hidden spots, we absolutely loved it and want to come back for another tour with Miha!Awesome tour with MIHA

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!

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 booked Michèle through a word-of-mouth suggestion and it was a great call. Michèle was exactly the right blend of knowledgable, relaxed and helpful. She didn't rush, she listened to our needs and preferences and tailored our tour so well. It was much more like being with a friend than a "tour guide". Not knowing Berlin really at all we were slightly apprehensive at the prospect of biking in a big city, but it was perfect - most of the tour is not on busy streets, and even the busier bits were relatively calm. It never felt risky or stressful at all, especially with Michèle on hand. Book her today, you won't regret it!Michèle is amazing

This was my first time in Berlin and I didn’t choose the tourist highlights although even on this ‘off the beaten track’ tour there were large groups of tourists going through these areas. Miha was very knowledgeable and helped orient me to the area and point out the street art. We had a beautiful sunny spring day to explore Berlin and I appreciated the artisanal coffee shop he took me to. The only downside was that he arrived late and could have been better at communicating this to me. He did answer quickly once I messaged him on the app. Great street art tour

We have a 12 & a 5 year old so It is not easy to lead a tour with children. But he was very patient & tried to tailor the tour to suit the family needs. He brought us to the key attractions and he took into consideration where we like to visit and dropped us off at our first x’mas market. ( we were doing a road trip in Germany) My son left his phone at the Holocust memorial he was quick to offer to go back to look for the phone. And by the grace of God, we found it! Thanks to the staff onsite who kept it safe for us. Overall, it was a great trip by Miha , thanks Miha!! A patient & experienced guide.

We had just a short window of time in Berlin with two friends who had never visited before, and I was so happy to find Michele to give us this quick tour of some of the highlights. She was such a pleasure to spend the afternoon with, like running into a super cool opera singer friend in Berlin! Having spent quite a bit of time in Berlin myself in the past, I thought her route and highlights and explanations were a great mix of old and new, history and what’s happening currently in Berlin. She gave us some good suggestions for finding a bite to eat and followed up in With Locals messenger with more - much appreciated! I would definitely book another longer tour with Michele next time. And hope to see her at the opera someday.Perfect express tour with Michele!

Michele gave my husband and I a fascinating tour of all the main sites in central Berlin. We'd arranged this for the first full day of our trip, and I would recommend this timing as she also provided great suggestions of things to do on the following days. We learnt so much about the city and its history in a really enjoyable way, plus some great pointers as to where to find good craft beer. And we were lucky enough to manage to buy seats for the Berlin State Opera's wonderful production of Nabucco and watched Michele performing in the chorus! Brilliant & thought provoking tour.

I can’t say enough good things about my tour with Miha! It was an incredible & amazing tour. Miha is very knowledgeable & geared my tour towards the history of Berlin & lots of fun facts along the way. He was so kind & it was a pleasure to tour with him. Miha even taught me some things I did not know about the S bahn & U bahn (such as the differences in the tickets and how to tell when the approaching train was full or semi full through the red lights.) Miha took me to the roof top of a building (I can’t remember the name) & we viewed beautiful Berlin from a different perspective. It was amazing! Miha even offered to help me purchase tour tickets and restaurant recommendations. He is a phenomenal & brilliant tour guide. I would highly recommend Miha as your tour guide. Excellent tour guide!

Visiting Berlin with Michele was a tour de force in seeing the important sights in the present day city center and understanding the events and forces that shaped it over the centuries. In one amazing morning Michele showed and gave in depth perspective on the key cultural, educational and political sites and enabled us to navigate the city. She was flexible with accommodating our interests. She even gave us some excellent recommendations for restaurants. I highly recommend her tour to first time visitors and returning visitors who want to get an in-depth understanding of the city. Berlin today and it’s complicated past

The tour was well paced and we felt we fit a lot in the 4 hours we spent with him. He gave some good tips on other places to see while in Berlin and taught us how to use the subway.

We enjoyed a personal tour with Miha, who knows Berlin extremely well. He took us all over the city while explaining the significance of various landmarks as they relate to WWII. Miha knew the answer to all our random questions and was fun to be with. The tour gave us a lot to think about and discuss later. The following days we were able to visit some of the museums and sites that Miha showed us during our exploration of Berlin. We also enjoyed an excellent Vietnamese restaurant recommended by Miha called King King. If you are planning a trip to Berlin I recommend you tour the city with Miha!!Berlin Live
