I agree with the previous review. Waited for nothing, no one answered the phone and only with the help of a lawyer will I get my money back. I'm curious if I get a comment from the company here too. That would be more reaction than emails and generous firsts on my part. But fine, when I hear from her lawyer, you can link it to the repayment of the money.
Was interesting, entertaining and well told, but expected more bloody and dark stories.
We really enjoyed a crime spree with authentic stories. We regularly watch the series Babylon Berlin and there was also a connection to it. Ernst Gennat and his criminal investigation. We never thought that the Alexa would once be home to Ernst Gennat's headquarters. The story of Lola was also very touching.
I had booked the guided tour "Dark Berlin" for my boss and his wife, who was in Berlin at the weekend. The tour was scheduled to take place Sunday at 2 p.m. On Saturday night at 8pm the cancellation of the tour came to my company email address with which I had booked this. Since I don't work on weekends, I couldn't read this and couldn't inform my boss. He waited half an hour for nothing at the meeting point and called the number on the ticket where no one answered! We find this extremely annoying and unprofessional. Hopefully, at least we'll get the money back. So you can only book the tour for yourself and then you always have to keep an eye on the mails.
