Great tour and education about the Cold War - I really enjoyed the tour. A great explanation of the effect of the wall and the Cold War on Berlin and a lovely walk as well.

Highly engaging detail - Interesting detail about the origins of the wall, the segmentation of Germany and Berlin, and the eventual fall.

Hope during the East German years - The walk between the front and back Walls and the many plans of escape. Some succeeded and some did not. To experience all this were it actually happened was very moving

Engaging and informed - Nathan, our guide, was excellent. He guided us on a highly engaging and informed walk where we learnt so much. I highly recommend the walk and the company, who were well organised and professional.

Insightful Tour for Young & Old - Quincey our tour guide did an exceptional job. He is very knowledgeable and gave us not only the history of the physical wall but also insight into the human story. I grew up with the Wall being in place so I found the tour very meaningful. The tour would also be insightful to younger persons to learn about this bazaar event in history.

Fascinating to literally walk through the history of the Wall. - Giles walked us through the fascinating history of the Berlin Wall and the surrounding events. His approach was great. It's so effective to stand in the very places where the stories played out. Rigorous but entertaining, Giles was very well informed and flexible. We enjoyed his company enormously. Heartily recommended.

East Berlin and the Berlin Wall - My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour although our guide Jonathan F appeared distracted by his phone and was less chatty than others. The downside is that at the end of the walk you are left at the wall and have to find your own way back to the city centre which can be daunting if you are unfamiliar with the city, although when asked we were given directions to the subway
