5.00Our guide Louisa was nothing short of brilliant, this young lady brought Berlin to life with her passion and knowledge of the area and History, she handled a difficult situation with an unfortunate homeless person who joined our group! and wasn't flustered, I can't recommend this tour enough, its a fair bit of walking but not a fast pace, I feel the History lesson I received was worth every penny
Jonathan N. led a terrific half way walking tour of Berlin

5.00We took a terrific four hour walking tour of Berlin beginning in what used to be East Berlin and eventually finishing at Checkpoint Charlie. Jonathan N. started off with a brief history of Germany from the middle ages to the present. Jonathan has extensive knowledge of Berlin and explains things in a way that are easy for both young and old people to understand. He showed us the important sites along the route and his humor was greatly appreciated by the entire tour group. One of the sites is called Topography of Terror and we wound up going back to that museum and spent another two hours there.I would highly recommend this tour and Jonothan in particular.
