Top Berlin Bus Tours

It was informative tour. The guide, Klaus, was able to share his own experiences of cold war. Detailed information was provided on the both east and west berlin. Klaus took the tour what I would call off the beaten, items related to the cold which I have never heard. Overall quite an enjoyable experience

Our time with our guide, Cairen, was extremely interesting and thought provoking. Profoundly knowledgeable and passionate about Berlin history (both pre and post WW2), Cairen also shared his personal connection to the Berlin with photos dating back some 40 years. Must do private tour in Berlin.

This has to be the most fun and informative tour we have ever taken. Our driver, Patrick could not do enough for us: He was always smiling and laughing and nothing seemed to be too much trouble; He kept a very cool head in some tricky situations; As a bonus, he was an excellent driver! Our guide, Walid was the most amazing, professional, knowledgeable, personable and down-right funny person. I cannot speak more highly of Walid: There was no question he wasn't able to answer; He gave us insights into the places we visited that we wouldn't have otherwise come across if it wasn't for him; He was educational, entertaining and emotionally intuitive all at once - very important skills to have especially when visiting sombre sites. We visited so many wonderful sites around Berlin including Sachsenhausen Memorial. There is no way we could have so thoroughly covered so much of Berlin without Patrick and Walid. Thank you so much for a wonderful day. We highly recommend this tour to everyone.

We had the most incredible guide for this tour. Sarah was so kind and spent the ride out and back talking to our family about all things Germany as well as any questions we had about the camp. She is so knowledgable. She was very sweet to our teen daughter and talked to her about what she knew about the concentration camps and college opportunites in Germany. She shared some great food recommendations as well. The actual tour was done so well. We were not sure what the tour would be like because it is a sad and difficult historical topic and memorial. Sarah was amazing. She would explain things in an easy and informative way, then let us look at things and be there for questions. She made sure we had a bit of time to talk and process along the way. Our family learned so much and continued talking about the fantastic Sarah throughout our travels through Europe. Thanks you so much. We will never forget this visit.

This is was an excellent tour. The guide Raffaello was outstanding. He really personalised the tour and has a passion for Berlin and its history. It is well worth undertaking a tour of this nature and if possible asking for Raf. We did this as a team corporate event but this would suite any age or any group. Thanks Raf you were a champ.

Got a taxi from hotel to boat mooring as wasn’t sure of location. A bit dark getting from the road onto the boat. Needed to use torches on phone. We were a party of 6. Welcomed on board. Service was good. Food and drinks included were all OK. Hard to hear some of the recorded commentary due to conversations on other tables. Never the less a pleasant evening and pleased we booked the trip.

Visiting Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp was one of the most powerful and sobering experiences of my life. This is not a typical tourist attraction—it is a place of remembrance, reflection, and education. Our guide was outstanding: deeply knowledgeable, respectful, and able to connect history with the broader lessons that remain urgent today. The camp’s design itself tells the story: the triangular layout, Tower A as the only entrance, and Station Z as the “exit” where industrialized killing took place. Standing by the roll call square at dawn, hearing how thousands were forced to line up in the cold, was chilling. The details were harrowing but important—prisoners living packed 700 to a barrack built for 150, the absurd forced labor meant to break spirits, and the systematic dehumanization where a person’s worth was reduced to their ability to work. The guide wove in survivors’ testimonies that made the history painfully real. One prisoner described feeling like “an insect trapped in a jar.” Another spoke of how survival required both hope and community, because “you cannot survive a camp alone.” What made this tour exceptional was how it placed Sachsenhausen in the wider context: Nazi propaganda, international failures like the Évian Conference, and even the postwar use of the camp by the Soviets. The guide did not shy away from modern parallels, noting how extremist ideologies still persist and why memorialization matters. Practical advice: wear comfortable shoes, bring water, and prepare emotionally. This is a large site with limited amenities. The visitor center has an excellent museum and audio guides if you prefer to go at your own pace. This is not an easy visit, but it is absolutely essential. Sachsenhausen teaches not only about the past but about our responsibility today—to recognize hatred, resist indifference, and preserve the voices of those who endured.

Marco was excellent & knowledgeable of the history here in Berlin. Learned so much!!! We had many obstacles because of the Marathon pre festivities but he navigated with expertise!! I am really happy with this tour & with Marco. Always asked if we had questions and gave us time to take pictures.
