A must-do!!! - Amazing tour!!! A must-do when in Berlin. You learn so much history, see so much of the city, and even learn how to navigate their train system. Our guide Cairan was fantastic and extremely knowledgeable. We actually bumped into him the next day and were so happy to see him.

Berlin Cold War Walking Tour - Our guide Kieran was very experienced, super knowledgeable with a delightful personality. He arrived early as did our small group and we began our tour immediately. We saw a myriad of the Cold War highlights, during which he spent ample time explaining in depth a wide range of topics that provided an excellent historical account of pre-post war Germany and Berlin. A truly memorable experience for all. Highest marks for knowledge, personal effort and interest in our satisfaction.
