Great tour with Matt - Yesterday, I had the opportunity to join a WWII tour in Berlin, and it was an exceptional experience. The tour was well-organized and deeply informative, offering a comprehensive look into the historical events and their impact on the city. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate, bringing history to life with detailed stories and insightful commentary. Visiting key sites such as the Berlin Wall, Checkpoint Charlie, and the Holocaust Memorial provided a profound and moving context to the historical narrative. Overall, the tour was both educational and emotionally resonant, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in understanding the profound history of WWII in Berlin.
Thank you Matt.

Great WW2 Walking Tour - Excellent tour! The American guide had a Masters in WW2 History and was a sensational source of information. A few of the monuments we could not see because the Euro 2024 Soccer Tournament was restricting access to them, but this is of no fault of the tour. We were 10 people which is a perfect size for a walking tour. The Guide maintained a good pace and answered all questions knowledgeably. I highly recommend this tour!
