This whirlwind private tour with a vehicle is designed to show you Berlin’s essential highlights in just two hours. One of our professional, local guides and a driver will meet you at your hotel or a pre-arranged meeting point. You will then receive the ultimate crash course in Berlin’s history.
See the Reichstag, burned down after Hitler’s rise to power and now a bold symbol of modern German democracy, and pass through the Brandenburg Gate, Berlin’s most iconic landmark. Walk in the shadow of the Berlin Wall, and cross the border at Checkpoint Charlie, the frontier of the Cold War. Then journey through the iconic concrete stelae of the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe to learn about the tragedy of the holocaust and stand at the site of Hitler’s bunker – where history’s most notorious criminal committed suicide as Berlin lay in ruins at the end of WW2.
You will also drive down Unter den Linden, Berlin’s royal boulevard, and stand at the center of the Museum Island: the 19th century city’s architectural heart and a UNESCO world heritage site. Time will also be taken to explore the old Nazi government quarter to see some remaining examples of Nazi architecture and the former SS and Gestapo Headquarters. You will also experience the pomp and grandeur of Prussian Berlin in Gendarmenmarkt and Bebelplatz, two of Berlin’s most beautiful squares.
At the end of the tour your guide will accompany you back to your hotel, or to a drop-off point of your choosing. They will also give you tips and recommendations to help you make the most out of your stay.
As always your experience can be tailored to you, so please let us know if you have any special requests or needs. We are also more than happy to help you with restaurant reservations and museum or gallery visits.

First up we head to the German parliament building – burned down after Hitler’s rise to power, now a bold symbol of modern German democracy. The first few points of interest on the tour will be explored on foot so we can get up close to Berlin’s most famous monuments.
We then walk through the Tiergarten and take a moment to pay tribute to those persecuted as Gypsies under Nazism.
Next we head through the gateways of Berlin's most iconic monument and find out what makes the Gate the most important cultural monument in Germany.
Plenty of time will then be taken to journey through the iconic field of concrete blocks, and bear witness the atrocities of National Socialism.
We then stand at the site of the bunker where history's most notorious criminal committed suicide at the end of WWII.
Next we head to the dark heart of Nazi Germany at the former headquarters of the SS and Gestapo and come face-to-face with the Cold War's most brutal symbol: The Berlin Wall. We’ll take plenty of time here for photos.
You will then cross between East and West at the most famous border crossing point over the Berlin Wall, frontline of the Cold War, where spies roamed and US and Soviet tanks faced off in 1961. There’ll be plenty of time for souvenir shopping.
