Great wee tour. - Despite the challenging weather, Paul delivered a really interesting historical tour, with a couple of beers from interesting places thrown in. It was great to see the oldest surving parts of berlin, and historical places you'd normally not see. Recommended!

60th Birthday Surprise - Excellent tour . Paul was enthusiastic and interesting. Great to see a part of Berlin you wouldn't normally see on other tours. Lots of information and facts with the odd beer thrown in. Would recommend to anyone who likes something a bit different.

Great outdoor activity for family and friends (even in Dec) - We had a great time! We were very lucky to have Darren as our guide. He mixed highlights of Berlin’s much complicated history with trivia and fun facts about the places we passed by. We would never have found the cozy and quirky pubs we visited without Darren. Highly recommend!

Good beer, interesting stories - Very interesting tour of the historical Berlin, not your typical places. Paul really knew his stuff, was very friendly and answered all our questions. Also the beer tasting was fenomenal.

Berlin History AND great beer! Unbeatable. - What a delicious surprise this tour was! I’ve been on a number of ‘pub tours’, all over the UK and Europe, but this one, with the amount of history it contains, was really on a whole different level. The history managed to be mostly beer-specific but was able to encompass most if not all of Berlin’s complex history; every beer had a context. And it was all because of a wonderful, personable and astoundingly knowledgeable tour guide named Cairan. He doesn’t just have a nearly encyclopedic knowledge of Berlin history and history in general. It’s very clear that he *loves* history and loves that he gets to talk to us about it. This ended up being, no kidding, the highlight of my Berlin vacation. If you love learning the history of the place you are visiting, and you also happen to like beer, you can’t do better than an afternoon with Cairan.

Pubs & History abound! - We had a fantastic time out and about in Berlin with Cairan! His knowledge of world history, specifically Germany, was such a delight as it added context to our journey across the city with fun stops and plenty of great beer! Highly recommend this tour!

An awesome Bier- und Kneipentour in Berlin - It was a really worth experience! My friends and me had a really pleasant and funny tour with our guide Darren, around Berlin and some of its historical pubs. There, we could try historical Berliner beers, even tried by Napoleon and beers tastes that I had never tried before. This was together with backgrounds on important history events that contributed to shape the city, as well as history on the beer varieties that we tried. Also Darren made us feel as we were just in a very familiar well-known group of friends, so we enjoyed very much the nice, funny and relaxed atmosphere! It's very worth to spend a nice time with friends and learn more on the beers, "Kneipen" and on Berlin itself at the same time. Darren is a very well prepared, friendly and witty guide!
