I'm Natalie - originally from Australia, I've chosen to make Berlin my home because I love history!
This tour is designed for first-time visitors who want to understand Berlin, not just photograph it. Over 2.5 hours we walk through the landmarks that defined the 20th century and connect them into a single story that helps the city make sense.
If you choose to join me to discover Berlin, you should know that none of my tours are scripted. It's more of a conversation, shaped around what you're curious about.
There is so much more to Berlin than meets the eye, so let's start with the highlights, dive into the history and I guarantee you'll come away from this tour with a deeper appreciation for the city!

What To Expect
Brandenburg Gate
Most people take photos of the Brandenburg Gate and leave it at that. We explain why the Gate looks the way it does and what it represents, who is sitting on top, and why Napoleon stole the Goddess.
Reichstag Building
Germany's federal parliament building, but it wasn't used for nearly 70 years...

5.00We had a private tour (a friend and me and the guide). The guide was really knowledgeable, flexible in terms of our knowledge and our wishes and gave us tons of information. She had also studied as an architect so was really knowledgeable about the many buildings of Berlin. The tour stated 2-3 hours and she stayed with us for 3 hours. She was also punctual and kept an excellent pace. We asked a lot of questions snd her knowledge of dates, timelines and historical facts was immense. What a lady! Thank you so much Natalie!! X
Highly recommended

5.00Natalie led two fantastic trips in Berlin for us: one focused on the architectural contrast between East and West Berlin, and the other on a walking history tour. Her exceptional knowledge of the city’s history and her warm and friendly demeanor made her an invaluable guide.
You won't be disappointed with Natalie

5.00I am a travel advisor who organized a couple of trips for our group in addition to what was already on our agenda of seeing some of the Berlin museums which was the group's focus for the trip. As an advisor, you hope that you make a good pick. I can say without hesitation that Natalie was a home run. Our group did two trips in Berlin with Natalie -- an East vs. West architecture and a walking history tour. Both were well done. Natalie's knowledge of the history was exceptional and she was extremely friendly. Everyone in the group was impressed with her and was happy to get bonus excursions on the trip.
