Absolutely recommended! - Beautiful tour held by Fabio, very prepared and nice guide. After meeting at Potsdamer Platz, we visited the Nordbahnhof underground station (ghost station at the time of the division of the city), the Wall memorial at Bernauer Straße, Alexanderplatz and the East Side Gallery. All very fascinating and explained in a very clear and engaging way. Try it!!

Tour East Berlin and Wall - Lorenzo super-guide! - Great tour held by the guide Lorenzo, very competent and well prepared. It was very interesting and intense also because Lorenzo was able to optimally manage 30 people between travel by public transport and walking, given the distances and the huge spaces of the city of Berlin.

An indispensable tour! - Joining this tour was a truly unique experience. First of all, we must point out the competence and kindness of Vita, who accompanied us on this journey between history and memory. Hours passed in a moment and the painting that Vita was able to describe to us was imprinted in our memory and heart. It 'a tour really indispensable, if not necessary, for those like us who came to Berlin for the first time, but also for those who have already been there and did not return for a long time.
