Scott was one of the best tour guys Iwe have ever had. He encourages conversation and questions with his incredible knowledge. We are Holocaust educators, and we were very impressed with his depth of knowledge. In fact, this experience added to our knowledge.

Highly recommend. Jochen (spelling) was a wonderful and very informative guide! I have a degree in Holocaust studies and he really knew his stuff! Would take this tour again if I come back to Berlin.

Wonderful experience; Benjamin was very knowledgeable and friendly so we learned lots during the tour. The stories he shared were very moving and it was great to see photos and places as we walked. Only issue we had was that there was a lot of standing so it is a bit tiring, but totally worth it!! Even my kids enjoyed.

Great walking tour of Berlin focusing on Jewish and German Resistance to the 3rd Reich. Scott was a wonderful guide- He gave us an understanding of history in just a few hours- and stopped at key memorials and resistance sites bringing the history "alive" . He adapted the tour to our pace and answered all our questions. Would highly recommend.
