5.00Did the Tour with Morgan and it was amazing. He is an amazing guide with lots of interesting storys and a huge passion for history. Very good story-teller. The tour itself was very well put together, the walking and the talking was nicely balanced and how the single stories tie in together to an overarching narrtive was really well done. I would say its probably not a tour for a first-time visitor but for someone who already some one or two things about Berlin and German history and who has a interest diving deeper into it. I did also their Hansaviertel tour with Morgan and the Stalinallee tour with Martina and it was also super interesting. Highly recommended to everyone who loves to geek a little bit about history!!!
