This lead to a discussions of the meaning behind the design, the placement of the memorial and how people view it today in remembering or acknowledging the past. My dad entered kindergarten 5 days before Hitler entered Poland. Not only did Mattias share his knowledge but also answered numerous questions. We had conversations about the past and present experiences of the German people throughout the last 100 or so years. By having a private guide we gained a much clearer…”

Explore Berlin’s Nazi and Cold War past on a private walking tour with a flexible route, expert guide, hotel pickup, and major historic sites.

“Excellent exploration of Berlin's recent history (with a bit of pre-WW2 history thrown in). Most cities we visit we explore on our own, however, given Berlin's size and the number of sites, we decided to go with a private tour, and this proved to be an excellent choice. We saw things that we almost certainly would have missed by ourselves, but more importantly, the extra colour, insight and knowledge provided by our guide, Jamie G, made the whole experience come alive. Jamie is easy-going, very personable, and was extremely patient and detailed in answering the numerous questions that both my wife and I launched at him. All in all, a…”

Ride Berlin in a Trabant stretch limousine, with hotel pickup, Cold War history, photo stops, and a private English-speaking guide.

“The Trabi limo tour was exactly what we had hoped for - a tour highlighting the history of the city in a Trabant stretch limo. For those unfamiliar, the Trabant was the car made for the people of East Germany during the period of communist rule there. While the limo adds some comfort, it is not intended to be luxurious, but rather captures the feel of history.”
