Berlin on bike is the way to go! - We had a great tour. We saw 13 Berlin highlights in 4 hours and were in awe. Others on our cruise who did not do a bike tour only saw 3 or 4. Our guide was great - tons of knowledge.

Great Tour - Exactly what I hoped for. I only had a few days in Berlin, and wanted to start with a bike tour to get an overview of the city, and this delivered. The tour guide was wonderful, very knowledgeable and was able to facilitate conversation among the group. We visited key sites, and the tour guide was great at providing information, and answering questions. The bikes themselves were comfortable. Would recommend!
