Third Reich and Cold War tour - We (parents with 16 year old son) really enjoyed this insightful tour guided by Hannah! Seeing many historic sights such as Brandenburg Gate, the Soviet war memorial, Jewish memorial, former Luftwaffe Headquarters/Ministry of Ministries, and Checkpoint Charlie, Hannah told us interesting facts and used visual aids to assist. There were 25 in our group and we were well engaged throughout. We would strongly recommend this tour.

Cold war/Third Reich recommended - Was an easy and pleasant walk. Our tour guide Jimmy had extensive knowledge of the sites and the history behind them. He was very engaging and encouraging of questions. Fantastic experience for my son studying GCSE history and for me as we learned so much about the history of Berlin & Germany.
