Review of Berlin’s 2-hour Third Reich and Cold War walking tour, covering the Wall, Checkpoint Charlie, Nazi sites, guides, price, and practical tips.
“Mikhail was an incredible tour guide. He was so knowledgeable about this city’s history. Would recommend to anyone wanting to learn more about Berlin’s history.”
Walk Berlin’s Third Reich and Cold War landmarks in two focused hours, from Brandenburg Gate to Checkpoint Charlie, with an English-speaking guide.
“The tour was easy to find since the guides had their pink umbrellas. Checking in with the tickets was also a seamless process. Our tour guide, Mikhail, was very knowledgeable and engaging. We learned a lot about Berlin, and appreciated how he connected history to the present. His use of historical images at certain stops also helped contextualize where we were standing and what had happened there. Seeing where Hitler’s bunker stood was unreal. The two hour timing is perfect, and the ending by Checkpoint Charlie makes good sense.”
Explore Cold War Berlin, the Palace of Tears, death strip, Stasi stories, and East Side Gallery on a practical three-hour walking tour.
“Jasper was a great guide who made the tour come alive for the group. He was very informative and very responsive to our questions. The tour was well paced and Jasper was adept at keeping the group together, which was especially important as it involved travelling on the Berlin u-bahn to visit some of the sites. Although we had visited some of the sites before, Jasper gave us a deeper appreciation of Cold War Berlin.”
Trace Berlin’s Wall route from Gesundbrunnen to Prenzlauer Berg, visit the memorial, and hear true stories of Cold War courage.
“Our guide was very knowledgable and flexible. The tour moved at a good pace and we all learned a great deal about this part of German history.”
