A very interesting tour with Glen. He was both informative and patient. The visit to the Wall museum and Stasi headquarters were extremely interesting and Glen was able to provide the historical context for each site. Very enjoyable

A fantastic tour with Glen who was friendly, funny and extremely knowledgeable. We got a far greater perspective than we were expecting. Glen was also very accommodating with regards to our mobility limitations. Would highly recommend.

I've been to two guides with Nathan, he has such depth in history, spending the day with him was like revisiting world history. Very recommended!

My husband and I were so fortunate to have Ken Walsh lead us on our private walking tour, Discover Berlin. Being amateur history buffs, ourselves, we appreciated Ken's accurate knowledge of German history, much of which he obtained as a history student in Berlin. The tour was perfect for first time visitors to the city like us, but it was so packed with sights and info. that we could easily do it again and learn more. Ken took us to the most popular sites, but he was also open to our preferences and was happy to alter the itinerary. At the end of the tour, he gave us a detailed map of the city and marked additional sites, restaurants, etc. that we should check out. That was especially helpful, since after walking with him for 3 hrs, he knew what we liked and were looking for. We took him up on his recommendations, and they were spot on.

Alex was a great guide and had an wonderfully deep understanding of the DDR era and reunification. His choice of sites and routes through wall areas was very informative. A highlight of our trip and far exceeding expactations.

What a superb tour and our guide, Philippa, was fantastic! We had booked this as a private tour and she catered it to suit our needs excellently. We learnt so much from her and the way she put things across made it a truly enjoyable four hours. The tour ended at the Stasi Museum which put the whole tour into perfect context. We will certainly be recommending it and Philippa of course! to friends and colleagues. Many thanks!
