Highlights
- Berlin - If you want to enjoy one of the best excursions in Berlin, and discover, in its main settings, the most exciting chapters of its history. Our excursion is designed to discover the most important places in Berlin in a comfortable and quality way.
- Memorial and Museum Sachsenhausen - During this visit we will learn about the daily work of the prisoners and how daily life was carried out in the concentration camp, through the buildings that have survived to this day. We will understand the complex history of this place through the different monuments that, for different ideologies and at different times, have been placed in the memorial.
Everything we will see in our tour on the visit to the Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp:
- Exhibition “The marches of death”.
- Tower A, security measures and punishments.
- Small field: Barracks 38 and 39.
- Camp prison.
- Kitchen and laundry.
- Soviet monument of 1961.
- Station Z.
- Infirmary and Morgue.
- Potsdam - Potsdam eventually became a royal residence. This brought part of the splendor that we see, palaces and gardens where the royal families and their courts ruled and walked.
There are many interesting places to see in Potsdam. We will see part of them, again, with the company and the explanations of our guide, but, in addition, in our free time, we will be able to continue exploring all the corners of this enclave.

Comprehensive and Enjoyable Tour - Excellent and knowledgeable guide! Your brain will be full after this tour. There is quite a bit of walking, some on gravel. Wear appropriate shoes!

Fun - The trip was knowledgeable with an experienced guide at a pace we liked. Beautiful sights that are a must see outside of busy Berlin.

In-depth History Tour Worth the Price - Richard, our guide, was lovely and knew SO much about each stop (and throughout the entire bus tour). He did a great job explaining some really tough subjects with empathy and compassion. Would highly recommend!

Fascinating - friendly - thought provoking - The amount of historical detail the guide knew about each aspect of the tour; the personal and sensitive interpretations given by Matias especially at the camp.
A friendly; informative and thought provoking trip.

Very educational tour - Great tour. But English and Spanish groups were mixed together on the same bus. It was somewhat annoying to listen something we did not understand at all for a long period of time. Our English guid was great. We heard many stories from the tour.

It was an average trip - Often too much talking and not enough time to explore. Too rushed to do all in one day. Would suggest only doing Sachsenhausen only and seperate day at Potsdam. Did not like having English and Spanish commentary.

Berlin Tour - Our guide was excellent, but they combined us with a Spanish group and we spent half the trip listening to mostly Spanish. We picked an English tour. Until now our Viator excursions have been great but you missed the mark on this one. The bus was hot. Our air did not work until late afternoon and we had to buy water that wasn’t cold. Again we loved our guide. He was exceptional on German history.
