Itinerary

10 min

This building from 1895 has seen a fire in 1933, bombs and bullet holes in World War II, and a complete renovation by Norman Forster. It is now the seat of the German Parliament.

10 min

This is Berlin's and probably Germany's most famous landmark. Napoleon, Hitler, Reagan, they have all come here knowing that this place is of special significance.

10 min

This is the central place of mourning and remembrance of the six million Jews killed during the Holocaust.

5 min

After being "no man's land" for decades, being right next to the Berlin Wall, this square has once again become one of the busiest intersections in Berlin.

10 min

You will see remains of the Berlin Wall and right behind it a documentation center on the site where Gestapo and SS headquarters used to be located.

5 min

This is the most famous of the crossing points between East and West-Berlin, this one being reserved for Allied Soldiers and other foreigners. Germans were not allowed to use it.

5 min

Gendarmenmarkt is the most beautiful square in Berlin, with the German and French Dome at either side, and Schinkel's impressive Concert Hall in the center.

10 min

The street Unter den Linden goes from the Brandenburg Gate to where the Hohenzollern Palace used to be. The palace was torn down but has now been rebuilt as Humboldt Forum, a stunning museum! Along the way there are lots of historic buildings such as the Opera House and the former Armory, now Germany's history Museum.

5 min

The Berlin Cathedral is Germany's largest Protestant Church. Inside many of the Hohenzollern family are burried, such as King Frederic I. and his wife Sophie Charlotte.

5 min

The Victory Column commemorates three wars Prussia won, the last one against France in 1871. The Column was originally located in front of the Reichstag and was moved to its present location in Tiergarten by Albert Speer.

10 min

Ku-Damm, as it's usually referred to, is the world's longest boulevard. You will find lots of high-end stores, cafés, restaurants, theaters, and of course the Memorial Church at its end.

5 min

The Memorial Church, originally remembering Emperor Wilhelm I, is now a war ruin, flanked by a modern church built by Egon Eiermann.

5 min

This is continental Europe's largest department store, and maybe it's most luxurious.

5 min

Museum Island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and includes the Neues Museum (with Nefertiti inside) and the Pergamon Museum (with the Ishtar Gate inside).

Comfortable tour

Thomas was prompt and an excellent driver. He gave us much knowledge of the history of the area and good photo stops. Due to a special event in the area, he had to adjust the itinerary and navigate around the event. Overall, we had an excellent morning out.

3 hour private tour of Berlin

Fabulous tour of Berlin with our guide Thomas Frys. It’s great having a guide with a car as we were able to cover such a large part of the city in the time allocated. We always do a private tour on the first day of our trip, as it’s a great way to orientate ourselves and get tips and recommendations from the guide. Thomas was extremely enthusiastic and hugely knowledgeable about Berlin and its history. It was exactly what we wanted and more!
