Itinerary
Here, more than a century ago, Berlin issued the patent for the first automobile in history. A few meters from that place we began the tour. We will see the oldest traffic light in Germany, talk about the history of Karl Benz's invention and we will review the furor that the new invention aroused.
We'll take a look at some of the most advanced electric cars of our time, to talk about the future of mobility. We will get in the cars and we will see the Tesla that is manufactured near Berlin. Are electric the true future of the automotive industry? Or just politically correct? When will combustion engines be finished? All these questions and more!
We will enjoy the best motor timeless jewels that live in Berlin.

I never imagined that a tour could be so original and that I could learn so much. Going around the city with Martín was great, he was telling me the history of the automobile while we were seeing incredible cars, besides finding out about many particularities of the German car world. A mix of German history, Berlin history and lots of cars! Incredible!
super interesting insights into the german automotive history and historically significant sights around berlin. highly recommend for any car enthusiast!
Berlin and the Car Culture was the most original tour I did in the German capital. I'm not a car enthusiast, but the tour weaves together the history of automobiles and the city, making it suitable for anyone—especially curious people looking for something beyond the usual sights. We visited places I would have never found on my own, and Martín was an amazing guide! I highly recommend it!
Amazing tour of Berlin's history and the automobile. I discovered places in the city that I would never have reached otherwise. Martín was a great guide, and to top it off, I saw the best cars of my life. 100% recommended!!!
This was such a unique tour in Berlin. Martin has a REAL talent for connecting the city’history with the story of the automobile. He is an expert: he’s both a car journalist and a city guide, so he really knows his stuff. We visited places I would never found on my own and at the end of the tour, I got to see some truly amazing cars. I done another tour with him before (volkswagen factory in Wolfsburg) so I knew this one would be great, and DEFINITELY YES! it absolutely was! THANKS AGAIN MARTIN.
Thank you very much for your words!
Sadly they cancelled out tour without reason so I can’t comment - very disappointed. We took ourselves to the Classic Remise and that was fantastic xxx
Hi! I’m very sorry about the cancellation, but it was due to a force majeure situation beyond my control. I hope we can meet in Berlin on another occasion. Best regards, Martín.
Last week I joined Martin Sacan's Berlin Automobile History Tour and it was fantastic!!! Martin expertise and passion for Berlin's history and automobiles made the tour highly engaging and informative. We explored key historical sites and learned how the automobile industry shaped Berlin. Martin's storytelling and detailed insights brought the city's past to life, making the tour both educational and enjoyable. The tour was well-organized, and Martin was professional and attentive, ensuring we had a great experience. Thanks Martin!!!
Enjoyed a tour today of the AVUS circuit was located in the Hallensee and Grunewald areas of Berlin with our private tour guide Martín. Martín was so knowledgeable and really brought the history of the area to life. Told about the amazing history of Berlin and its relationship with cars. We also got to see the first traffic light Berlin Potsdamer Platz. We enjoyed visiting Tesla showroom and seeing some finished cars that are manufactured in Berlin. Later we finished with a tour of Classic-Remise Berlin and treated to seeing amazing cars on display. All in all it was a tour well worth the money. A great experience with an amazing tour guide! Martín had some great recommendations for further activities. Easy meeting location and excellent easy communication. English language tour.
Thank you very much Thomas for your comment. It was a pleasure to tour the city with you and tell you how it relates to the history of the automobile. I'm glad you enjoyed Berlin and the car culture. A big greeting!
