Xavier was so knowledgeable, intelligent, charismatic, and intelligent. He was able to ask a variety of questions and engage the group in conversations. It was an extremely moving tour. It was not rushed he took so much time to make sure we got the full experience. I would do it again especially if I knew Xavier was the tour guide. I will be recommending this tour to any and all people I speak to about my first trip to Berlin. Can’t wait to be back and do it again

There was a relatively large group and the tour guide needs to consider that when people are seated side-by-side next to each other on a bench that he needs to speak loud and clear enough for everyone to hear, not only those directly in front of him.
The guides english wasn't great either.

Xavier was our guide today and it was simply superb from start to finish. It was clearly evident throughout the tour that he was passionate about the subject as very knowledgeable. He managed to bring the entire story to life and can’t recommend this tour highly enough if all the guides possess the same attributes.

Xavier was a stand-out tour guide, funny, enthusiastic and knowledgable. He ensured that this tour was one of the highlights of our trip. It was packed full of information, and the group size was perfect (there were 8 of us). Can't recommend Xavier too highly, and would ask for him if/when we come back for another visit!

We Love Xavier! Kind and knowledgeable. We learned so much with him. Best guide ever. Paid attention to our interests and needs. Took nearly an extra hour because he wanted to tell the full story of wall coming down. Great sense of humor. Would take another tour with him. Same high quality as Context at fraction. Of price.

Eren was a great guide. The tour was very interesting and engaging, and I learned a great deal about the cold war and the wall, particularly small details to bring the stoey to life.
