Traveler reviews
Very good tour of the key areas of Cold War Berlin
The tour was very interesting and informative. Our guide was Ru and he was very knowledgeable but also made the tour light-hearted at times which is good for what can be a very serious subject matter.
A great way to learn about East Berlin
This tour is an excellent way to see what was formerly East Berlin, and to gain a better understanding of its complicated history and culture. We learn that the past lives on in the lives of people today. Our guide Ru is deeply knowledgeable and is really skilled at helping us understand the complexities of this part of Berlin. Highly recommend the tour and Ru, our guide.
Great Cold War tour with Ariel!
Ariel was great. We covered a lot of ground exploring Cold War sites in Berlin. Much of the walk included public transport so we were able to see sights we would have missed if on our own. This tour completed our understanding of Berlin after doing first a Berlin highlights and then a 3rd Reich tour. Definitely recommend Ariel!
Very interesting tour
Nikolai did a great job! He shared personal stories from his family and really made life behind the wall come alive.
Insight into the Berlin Wall
This was a very interesting tour with background that explains why the Wall was built as well as bringing you to actual places associated with this topic. Nickola was a wonderful guide, with a background that gave the whole tour a personal touch. We highly recommend!
