Exceptional Berlin Tour: A Vivid Journey Through History - One of the best tours I've ever experienced. My family and I, visiting from Croatia for just three days to watch a football match, wanted to make the most of our time in Berlin. The tour lasted nearly four hours, yet we never felt tired—time just flew by. Tom guided us through the city, narrating Berlin's entire history so vividly that we could almost imagine being there. This tour truly nailed it. High praise for Tom; such exceptional storytelling is truly rare. :)

Jimmy the legend! - Had a tour with Jimmy! What a genuine and knowledagble guy! He answered every question I threw at him with passion and more importantly, the answer!

Guided Berlin walk - Very informative guided walk thanks wholly to our absolutely excellent guide Waldi. (Probably not spelling that correctly, but he is English/Bangladeshi) Cannot praise his commentary highly enough. Would highly recommend.

Interesting but cold - We had a very interesting but a little bit cold tour with our guide Annika who did a great job. The stop at Checkpoint Charlie could have been a few minutes longer.
