What To Expect
Sanssouci Palace
Sanssouci was the summer palace of Frederick the Great, King of Prussia, in Potsdam, located nearby Berlin. Sanssouci is notable for the numerous temples and follies in the park. The palace was designed/built by Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff between 1745 and 1747 to fulfill King Frederick's need for a private residence where he could relax away from the pomp and ceremony of the Berlin court.
Glienicke Bridge
The Glienicke Bridge is a bridge across the Havel River in Germany, connecting the Wannsee district of Berlin with the Brandenburg capital Potsdam. It is named after nearby Glienicke Palace. The current bridge, the fourth on the site, was completed in 1907, although major reconstruction was necessary after it was damaged during World War II. During the Cold War, as this portion of the Havel River formed the border between West Berlin and East Germany, the bridge was used several times for the exchange of captured spies and thus became known as the Bridge of Spies.

5.00Good tour and pretty city and palace. Tour guide was knowledgeable and great. The palace is nice but set expectations that this is not as grand as other palaces in Europe but a fine thing to do for a few hours.
Hail the potato King!

4.00It was great. I learned a lot about Frederick the Great. We just drove through Potsdam without stopping but the stop at the palace was nice and informative. The guide and driver (Susan and Marty I think) were very good and professional!
Good tour!

4.00Karin was fantastic! She had a lot of knowledge of the place we visited as well as areas we were passing by on the way to the palace. The bus liner was clean and comfortable. A class of its own. The only thought I had that wasn’t a positive was the price based upon what you get and length of the tour. Otherwise, recommend!
Fascinating area to visit with the right guide.

3.00The content of this tour is great. We were disappointed that the commentary did not match the tour. It was an English- German tour but there was very little English commentary compared to German. It would have been great to learn more had the commentary been better.
