9 gays cycle Berlin - We were a group of 9 guys on a sightseeing tour, and opted for this bike trip as a way of seeing the major sights in a few hours. Our guide, Marco, was absolutely brilliant - super friendly, very informative, respectful, totally engaged with the city, and also full of recommendations. We felt safe at all times. The route was very well planned - we ended up at the Brandenburg Gate, where one of our party proposed to his boyfriend and he said yes! Just a perfect day all round!!

Fun afternoon on 2 wheels - Fun afternoon with Marco as our guide, he had an equal balance of facts with a lot of fun. The time flew by, the historic sites were fascinating. I'm not a regular cyclist and this was very easy, Berlin is very flat and car drivers are very respectful to cyclists (also trip is mostly on cycle paths). Definitely a highlight of our trip to Berlin.

This was a wonderful way... - This was a wonderful way to experience Berlin. The history came alive as we biked around the city and the guide shared his knowledge of history, leaders, and political/social issues. The three hours passed too quickly!

Learning history on a bike! - We wanted to give our granddaughter an individualized bike tour of Berlin as a special gift. Robert Sommer ( [email protected] or [email protected] ) provided a spectacular experience, where Berlin's highlights became opportunities for them to talk about the past and the present; chances to see the old and the new, to go at her pace, to ask (and have answered) as many questions as she had...She wrote that it was the highlight of our entire trip, using words like, amazing, respectful, challenging, thoughtful. The touring while riding a bike was perfection for a young adult.

Not to be missed! - Our guide, Thor, was absolutely fantastic. His knowledge of the city’s history, culture, and hidden gems was impressive. He shared fascinating stories that brought each site to life, making the experience both educational and entertaining. We loved the fact he had photos with him and even used the pavement to chalk on a map to make things easier to understand.
The bike tour took us to all the main sites, including the Brandenburg Gate, the Berlin Wall, and the Reichstag building. Thor ensured we had plenty of time to stop, take pictures, and soak in the atmosphere.
Biking around Berlin is a great way to experience the city up close, with its vibrant streets and beautiful parks. It felt so safe on the roads and the electric bikes we upgraded to made it so easy!
I highly recommend this bike tour to anyone visiting Berlin. Make sure to ask for Thor—his passion for the city and its history truly enhances the experience.

Good, but short of great. Fun, tho!! - Good tour, but not quite a great tour. Loved the bikes, and the trek. Guide was pretty knowledgeable. I think the guide should have stopped at more strategic locations sometimes to allow for better angles for taking pictures. She missed it in that respect. She also didn’t mention some key bits of information that were actually learned from another participant who’d already been on a night big bus tour. Example: there are lines of stones in the roads that show the location of the former Berlin Wall. Just helpful to point that out as soon as they’re visible along the ride.
