What To Expect
Kreuzberg
Once a 19th-century worker’s district and former part of West Berlin, Kreuzberg has reshaped itself through immigrants, capitalists, anarchists, artists, WWII bombs, and Cold War suppression. Today, the neighborhood is a buzzing hub of counterculture, cafes, art, bars, and a salad bowl of immigrants providing diverse cuisine options and market goods. This 3-hour Kreuzberg tour highlights the neighborhood’s authentic identity, as it continues to push back against gentrification and development.
Memorial of the Berlin Wall
Ponder what remains of the Berlin Wall before continuing past street art-filled walls, abandoned buildings, and plots of land that have been creatively transformed into art hubs.

A walk around Kreuzberg, Berlin

5.00It’s hard to please a group of “smarty pants” who claim to know the town - but Klaus did it, and he did it well, with passion and patience. People particularly loved the stop at “Markthalle 9”, and the group laughed out loud on Rio-Reiser-Platz, where anecdotes about the singer/songwriter were exchanged. All in all, it was the walking around the places of interest that stood out, i.e. Klaus’ choice of locations for our little stops: everybody “kind of knows” Kreuzberg, and people told me, they would visit occasionally, but no one ever walked the whole ‘hood. So, people were surprised about the connections that Klaus made evident on the tour. Also, the restaurant recommendation was a big hit!
