Jonathan N. was our guide. He had a great sense of humor and was very knowledgeable about the history of Germany. A lot of people had signed up and I appreciated the fact that they got two guides to keep the groups smaller.

Rebecca was an EXCELLENT guide! She was animated, engaging, personable, and very knowledgeable. Her passion shone through every stop and story she shared. We saw all the sights in Berlin we wanted to on this tour, and she gave great recommendations for food, Christmas Markets, and other attractions. Make sure you're ready for the long walk and periods of standing - you'll circle just about the whole city!

I don't often do guided city tours, but since I had such a short amount of time in Berlin I wanted to make sure I hit all of the historical highlights as efficiently as possible. Nick was a wonderful tour guide. His passion for history was evident; he was informative but not dry, and sensitive but still humourous. I'd be happy to recommend this tour, and especially Nick, to any friends or family looking for a tour in Berlin.

Patrick led an excellent historical overview of most monuments and events in Berlin. An overwhelming task but he sailed through. Very brisk walking for 3 plus hours so dress accordingly. Wonderful

Very informative and enjoyable tour of Berlin. Our guide Anya O was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable and was able to tailor the experience to what the tour participants wanted. There is lots of walking but we saw so much and learned so much about Berlin.
