- Memorial of the Berlin Wall - One of the most incredible sites related to the Berlin and the scene of tragic loss and incredible escapes. The memorial itself is over 1km long and includes the only preserved complete cross-section of the Berlin Wall and Death-Strip.
- Checkpoint Charlie - The most famous of all the Check Points it was the scene of many failed and successful escapes and also an incredible face-off between the American and Soviet forces in the Autumn of 1961.
- Topography of Terror - The section on Niederkirchnerstrasse is the only surviving fragment of the wall in this part of Berlin. It is right next to the former-Luftwaffe Headquarters which was used during the East German Period as the House of Ministries. It is also the site of one of the more incredible escapes into West Berlin.
- GDR Watch Tower - Visit and possibly ascend the last of the BT - variant watchtowers that used to surround West Berlin. A rare survival saved thanks to a private initiative.
- Potsdamer Platz - See how what was just a desolate piece of land in, and also bounding, the death-strip has developed into a high-rise business and entertainment quarter. The rebirth of re-unified Berlin before your very eyes.

Embark on a private exploration of significant locations tied to the Berlin Wall and the Cold War in the company of Birchy or one of our knowledgeable guides. You’ll delve into the Berlin Wall’s chronology, details, and reasons as you traverse the remarkable Berlin Wall Memorial, which retains portions of the death-strip conserved and partly rebuilt. The memorial, unique even before the remembrance initiatives following the Wall’s fall, is marked by astonishing escapes and heartbreaking fatalities.
From the Wall Memorial, our journey continues to a sector of Mitte enclosed by the Berlin Wall, bordering the American sector from the south and the British sector from the west. Here, we’ll behold Check Point Charlie (the most famous crossing between West and East), the vast former House of Ministries buildings (among the scarce surviving Nazi ministry structures), and then head to the last remaining BT-variant Watchtower, which we can actually climb up.
The tour concludes at Potsdamer Platz. Once one of Europe’s most crowded urban junctions, the area was laid to waste at the close of World War II, with remaining structures further obliterated by the erection of the Wall and the creation of the death-strip. Today, as a flourishing business and entertainment hub, it represents a striking testament to a city’s ability to recover from devastating societal calamity.
