Fantastic tour, highlighting key historical sites and monuments!

Time well spent. Within 2 hours learned historical significance of several Berlin monuments and key sites. Irish Paul Declan was a fantastic tour guide who shared his passion for history and made this a very memorable experience. Perfect amount of time!

A must to see & think upon Berlin.

I can’t say enough about the value of this tour. Especially the tour guide Stefan Lars who quite honestly made the experience. Aside from being very knowledgeable, the selected info he shared was super interesting. He delivered with tact & professionalism fact-based particulars while restraining judgment or personal opinion that brought to life the complex history of such an incredible city. A tour that makes you really think and analyze instead of just entertaining you with dumb-down jokes. Inspiring thought while stilling making a tour fun is an art! Thank you Stefan!
