Loved the tour, it's a definite must do in Berlin.

Adam_R, Apr 2026
Leo wasn't able to do the tour, so he had Yakup fill in, and he was great. He shared a ton of details about Berlin including what it was like growing up in East Berlin and being 18 when the wall came down. I loved that I could do the tour by myself so we could customize it as I saw fit, and they only charged 20 euro to do a pick up outside of the normal zone. Much cheaper than ubers. Highly recommend this tour!

Amazing service and tour by Leo!

Ramona_D, Mar 2026
Leo and his colleague provided us with a wonderful experience. The ride was so ideal, comfortable and cozy with the blanket provided to us. We were asked what our interest were at the start of our tour and Leo came up with a very interesting and educational tour. Leo and his colleague were easy going, very knowledgeable and super accommodating. Thanks so much for an amazing time and fun filled tour.

Wonderful educational Tour. We were allowed to stop for photos whenever we wished our Tour guide, Leo, was a wealth of information on Berlin history. Highly recommend!

Cold was history on a cold day ☺️

SwatiS, Feb 2026
Our rickshaw tour through Berlin was an outstanding experience and a unique way to explore the city’s Cold War history. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and clearly very passionate about the subject. He provided detailed explanations about the various Cold War points of interest, including the historical context and the significance of each location. It was really cold so better be prepared then sorry 😬

Leo is amazing- great way to see Berlin!

Mohana_R, Feb 2026
Super way to see the city as you can use the bike/bus lanes and beat traffic as well as get very close to the buildings. Leo was amazing as a guide. It was brisk but he had hot water bottles and a blanket so wasn’t so bad.

Tour of Berlin city

Sanjeev_M, Feb 2026
The guide charged me an extra 30 Euros for driving me around an extra 10 minutes - and that extra time was needed because he was busy chatting with his wife half the time!

Response from Host, Feb 2026

You asked to get a longer tour then you booked before to start, 30 min or 1 hour longer, because you wanted to see as much as possible of Berlin. After we finish the tour (2 hours which were booked + 35 minutes you requested)you paid - with a smile! - the extra 30 Euro. Now after a week you first are officially asking for money back, the first reason is the weather. After it was declined, you were complaining because "the extra time should not have been charged", even if YOU requested it. Now in the review you are saying that I drove you only 10 min longer and I was chatting with my wife (which never happened..) Until now it has been 5 days you are keeping me busy answering your requests with always different reasons. Remember: people are not working for you for free.

Three Generations

Sharka_J, Jan 2026
This is a great way to learn about and see a lot of history in a short period of time without having to walk. I had an amazing time with Leo giving myself, my daughter, and granddaughter such an incredible history lesson. Although it was cold, we were able to stay warm with the blanket that Leo provided us. I definitely recommend taking this tour with Leo. We went in the evening and were able to get some really nice photos, but I think I would go in the afternoon if I had it to do all over again.

Exploring Berlins Past with Leo as Our Guide

Jamie_N, Dec 2025
My mother and I had such a wonderful time on our rickshaw tour through Berlin with Leo. He was warm, charming, and incredibly knowledgeable, guiding us through both iconic landmarks and hidden corners of the city with ease. He also came prepared with multiple blankets and hot water bottles to keep us cozy, which made the entire experience feel extra thoughtful and comfortable. Leo kept us completely engaged with his stories and insights and his genuine love for Berlin came through in every stop and explanation. The ride felt relaxed, personal, and truly special from beginning to end. This was one of our favorite experiences in Berlin and we highly recommend it, especially with Leo as your guide.

Best way to see Berlin!!

Julie_M, Nov 2025
Fabulous experience. The guide, Leo, was very knowledgeable and the itinerary is flexible. Warm blanket and hot water bottle provided. This is the best way to see Berlin. The rickshaw can access areas that would only be accessible on foot. Perfect in the snow too!

Amazing Tour, So Much Fun!

Jessica_S, Nov 2025
This experience was so much fun! Our guides were super knowledgeable and shared some really interesting facts with us. We traveled with my 2 children as well and they had a great time. The guides had blankets for us with the cold weather too which was so wonderful. I highly recommend! 10/10 stars!

Good overview of berlin

John_V, Sep 2025
Got a good overview of the main parts of Berlin in a comfortable setting. Leo our guide was very informative and we were able to see things at a leisurely pace, stop and take photos, and find out which we want to come back to later for in-depth views.

Solo Rickshaw tour

Grace_L, Aug 2025
The private tour with the rickshaw was a perfect choice. I was picked up at the hotel on the clock exactly as promised. I got a very good experience because I got individual, firsthand information about the Berlin city from a very knowledgeable tour guide. I, also got a lot of help from my tour guide concerning going on and off the Rickshaw since I have bad legs. I also managed to take my walker with me.

Excellent tour

Barry_B, Aug 2025

Rickshaw Roaming

Louise_S, Jun 2025
I would definitely recommend this rickshaw ride as a way of getting to know Berlin. We were picked up at our hotel for a prearranged price which was really convenient for us. Our driver, Leo, was very knowledgeable about the historic churches, buildings and parks. We visited the landmark sites including Check Point Charlie, Brandenburg Gate, and parts of the old Berlin Wall. Our guide was happy to stop to allow us to take pictures. The rickshaw was driven in the cycle lanes and we felt perfectly safe especially as Leo was such a good driver. A blanket is also supplied in case you feel the cold but we didn't need it. Leo supplemented his talks with old photographs so that we could see how the city had changed. Our three hour trip flew by and before we knew it we were back at the hotel.

Rickshaw 3 hour your with Leo
