Step into the past and explore Berlin’s complex history on this guided walking tour. Available as either a group or private experience, this easy-paced and stress-free stroll is led by an expert local guide who will look after you throughout the journey while offering unique insights into the events that shaped modern Berlin.

At the Soviet War Memorial, see preserved Red Army tanks and hear the story of the Battle of Berlin before pausing at the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. Stand above the site of Hitler’s Bunker and explore the former headquarters of the SS and Gestapo, where the Nazi regime’s machinery of terror was organised. Continue to a preserved section of the Berlin Wall and hear remarkable stories of escape, division, and reunification. Your journey concludes at Checkpoint Charlie, where American and Soviet tanks once faced off during one of the Cold War’s most tense moments.

En god oplevelse
Ontzettend veel geleerd. Veel informatie. Kundige gids. Sprak perfect Engels.
Notre guide était historien et sa visite était très bien construite, il a su nous donner les infos essentielles et faire de chaque étape une pièce de son récit. Il était attentif à nos questions et à se faire comprendre de tous même des non anglophones (nous sommes français). Les deux heures sont passées très vite ! Seul point d’amélioration : mieux indiquer le lieu de rencontre sur l’invitation, ce n’est pas évident quand on arrive sur une grande place comme la porte de Brandebourg de se repérer.
Ben was a perfect guide. Engaging, highly knowledgeable and his English accent was posher than mine! The tour exceeded our expectations and made our trip to Berlin. Exceptional value for money. Would 100% recommend.
