“Xavier was a wonderful guide. My fiancée and I agree that he provided the best tour we have ever had. He had an enthusiasm for the subject matter that was contagious. Xavier could have spoken for hours about WWII history in Berlin, but also incorporated other interesting information about Berlin when appropriate. Highly recommend Xavier.”
Walk Nuremberg’s old town with guide Daniel Vogel or another German- or English-speaking local guide. See Dürer’s House, the castle, Tiergärtnertorplatz, Hauptmarkt, Frauenkirche, and the Beautiful Fountain. Private groups of up to eight can request an individual start time.
“Klasse Führung!!!! Herr Vogel war als Einheimischer super gut über Geschichte, Architektur und geographischen Besonderheiten informiert. Eine Anpassung unserer "privaten" tour mit 7 Personen und einem älteren größerem Hund im Hundewagen wurde souverän umgesetzt. Kurzum: echt klasse !!!”
Spend about four hours with a private English-speaking guide such as Jimmy, Dylan, Reuben, Luisa, or Kai Janssen. Walk from Museum Island through Brandenburg Gate, the Reichstag, Hitler’s Bunker, Checkpoint Charlie, and the Berlin Wall, with hotel pickup and a city map included.
“Reuben was a great guide. He is extremely knowledgeable and gave us a lot of information on the history of Germany as he showed us to as many historical points as possible. We had a great time.”
Spend 3 to 4 hours with a private English-speaking guide exploring Berlin’s Nazi and Cold War past. Choose WWII, the Cold War, or both, with stops such as the Brandenburg Gate, Holocaust Memorial, Checkpoint Charlie, the Berlin Wall, and East Side Gallery. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included.
“A very informative tour, tailored to our questions and interests, Jeff listened to what we were most interested in and provided a tour that was relevant and enjoyable.”
