Berlin Walking Tour - The Tour was very good. Nickolai was our guide and was very informative indeed. The tour was delivered with a good mix of humour, knowledge and gravitas. Despite the cold weather it was a very pleasurable two hours. I would recommend the tour to anyone who wants to know more about Berlin and its historic landmarks. Thank you Nickolai.

Very interesting and informative - This it was an experience I won't soon forget. The tour guide, Nikolai, offered an engaging and informative exploration of the city’s rich history. Nikolai was friendly and knowledgeable, he provided a thorough overview of Berlin’s complex history. The tour took us through some of Berlin’s most iconic landmarks, including the Brandenburg Gate, Hitler’s bunker and Checkpoint Charlie. We stopped at areas where the Berlin Wall once stood, and Nikolai shared stories about the city and its residents. The pace of the tour was just right. The walk itself was comfortable, with plenty of stops along the way. I highly recommend this walking tour to anyone visiting Berlin.
