Tour Berlin’s government quarter from the Futurium to the Reichstag, with stories of the Wall, modern architecture, politics, and photo stops.
“We were able to book this tour very last minute and glad we did so. The tour takes you from the Brandenburg Gate, through the area around the Reichstag that houses the representatives and different ministries and then allows you access to the "Plenarsaal", the room where the German Bundestag meets. The grand finale of the tour was the hike up the glass dome of the Reichstag. Our tour guide was phenomenal and the information was well presented and fascinating. I had booked the tour in German, so I can't speak for the English speaking guides, but the content presented and the price makes this an experience you don't want…”

“This was a fantastic ride with an equally fantastic guide. Brendan is the best guide we have come across and he was able to give so much information. His recommendations were spot on both during the ride and for later on. I cannot recommend him and this ride more highly The pace was perfect for the group. The sites were what we were wanting. The narrative was full and concise with plenty of questions and answers shared between the group and the guide. A short coffee stop at a lovely cafe. Lots of time for the more important sites - important to the group and members. And lots of fun…”
Tour Hamburg’s Chocoversum to taste chocolate through six production stages, learn cocoa’s story, and make a bar to take home.
“Chocolate is the best known food that nobody knows anything about. Everyone loves chocolate bars or boxes of bonbons, but it’s rare that someone knows what kind of a journey one cocoa bean should make before getting into your mouth. This tour invites you to the fascinating ninety-five minute voyage to the history of a chocolate as a product we all know today, not to mention multiple tastings along the way. I especially liked my international group, crunchy waffles - you dunk them into chocolate during your excursion - and a tour guide with outstanding English public speaking skills. The tour started on time, there was no hussle about making…”
